A noteworthy event unfolded in the world of WWE recently as a prominent team paid tribute to wrestling legends Shawn Michaels and Triple H during a live event.
DIY, known for their entertaining performances as a tag team in WWE NXT, experienced a tumultuous journey. Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano, once close friends, found themselves at odds, leading to the dissolution of their partnership.
However, fate intervened, and they reunited upon their transition to the main roster. Currently, they have aligned themselves with The Miz, forming an intriguing alliance.

Their recent storyline involvement with the faction Judgment Day emerged after they intervened to rescue R-Truth from an assault. Following this altercation, R-Truth, in a humorous moment, mistakenly associated DIY with the legendary D-Generation X.
Taking advantage of this comedic opportunity, Ciampa and Gargano decided to channel their inner DX during a live event.
In a nod to their predecessors, Gargano delivered his version of Shawn Michaels’ iconic “sweet chin music,” while Ciampa executed Triple H’s signature move, the “pedigree,” on JD McDonagh of Judgment Day.
Meanwhile, as WrestleMania season heats up, WWE’s Executive Vice President of Global Talent Strategy & Development, Triple H, took to social media to hype up an upcoming match on WWE RAW.
He expressed anticipation for the showdown between Drew McIntyre and Jey Uso, highlighting their exceptional skills and the high stakes involved.
“Two Superstars at the top of their game, with everything to gain… you already know this is going to be one hell of a match. Jey Uso vs. @DMcIntyreWWE, tomorrow night LIVE on #WWERaw. 8/7c @USANetwork,”
Triple H tweeted, setting the stage for an electrifying encounter.
