8 Most improved WWE superstars of 2018 

#4 Tommaso Ciampa

Ciampa is one of the best heels in the industry

Tommaso Ciampa's return from injury at the start of 2018 was one of the best moments on any PPV this year.

After putting on a 5-star classic with Andrade 'Cien' Almas, Johnny Gargano made his way up to the entrance ramp with his wife, Candice LaRae, only to be attacked from behind by his former DIY partner, Tommaso Ciampa.

Since then, Ciampa has gone on to establish himself as one of the best heels in all of professional wrestling and has put on several match of the year candidates with Gargano.

Ciampa's crowd work has been nothing short of exceptional, and his refusal to break kayfabe on social media has made his Twitter profile one of the most entertaining in all of wrestling.

Ciampa's reign as NXT Champion has been one of the best with the belt in recent memory, and he will no doubt continue to shine when he makes his way to the main roster.
