Tommaso Ciampa releases new merchandise following WWE exit

As he enters post-WWE life, Tommaso Ciampa has released some new merchandise items on his Pro Wrestling Tees store.

Five T-shirt designs and a hoodie have been added to the store. They utilize the terms “Psycho Killer” and “Psycho Kid” as nicknames Ciampa could be using following his WWE exit. The “Psycho Killer” moniker is one that has been associated with Ciampa for a while, and he filed a trademark for that term — along with a trademark for “Psycho King” — on January 21.

News first broke around the start of 2026 that Ciampa would be leaving WWE when his contract expired. He confirmed that decision last week, posting a statement where he thanked everyone in the company. The 40-year-old Ciampa said he feels like he has another decade left in his career, and he’s accepting bookings for appearances, signings, photo ops, seminars, movies, TV appearances, fitness collaborations, sponsorships, and more.

It remains to be seen where Ciampa will wrestle next, but our Dave Meltzer reports that there’s been talk regarding a potential NJPW debut.

“There is talk of him trying to get into New Japan,” Meltzer wrote. “He’d fit in style wise with AEW but AEW has such a large roster filled with top talent so it’s a tough place to break through. The fact he’s pushing indie bookings would seem to indicate he didn’t leave for AEW and a deal there, but it wouldn’t surprise me to see such a deal happen given Tony Khan signing so many people and he’s a strong in-ring wrestler.”

Ciampa is a former NXT Champion for WWE and had been featured on the SmackDown roster prior to departing the company.
