Without question, Tommaso Ciampa is the most hated wrestler in WWE today. With every appearance, every hateful tweet, and every opportunity to screw Johnny Gargano over, Ciampa has managed to generate genuine heat from the fans.

Kayfabe is not the most prominent thing in WWE anymore, but Ciampa has managed to keep it alive, and his Twitter actions are a living testament to the fact. From refusing to do podcasts and giving movie spoilers, Tommaso is doing everything possible to make the fans despise him more and more.

One of the last real heels in WWE, the hatred for Tommaso Ciampa has made Johnny Gargano an instant fan favourite. While WWE may have hit the jackpot with this move, Ciampa has perfected the craft of how a heel should look like, and it's refreshing to see someone manage the hatred so well.

The current NXT Champion is set to defend his title against Gargano in a last-man match standing match at Takeover: Brooklyn III. While the match itself would steal the show, it will be interesting to see what heel tactics Ciampa has in his pockets to generate even more heat from the WWE Universe.
