At this time it hasn’t been officially confirmed that this was Ciampa’s last match in NXT, but the footage appears to show that this was indeed his last time in NXT. NXT under a time basis.
For the past few weeks Ciampa has already been struggling on the main roster side with Main Event, we will have to watch if he will officially start on the RAW side now that he is no longer needed by NXT.
