It is unlikely that Tommaso Ciampa will be included in WWE 2K19. Bryan Alvarez of Wrestling Observer Live did some digging and found a very good reason for him not being in the game.
According to Bryan, it was because Tommaso was injured during the time that the 2K crew was putting this game together and hence he won’t be in the game. This is what he said during Wrestling Observer Live:
“I have not heard from Tommaso Ciampa and 2K did not answer when I requested information about this but I did have somebody in WWE who speculated so let me make this very clear this is speculation but he speculated that based on history their speculation was that the reason Tommaso Ciampa is not in 2K19 and I can say with like 99.9% certainty he’s not going to be in this game. He’s not going to be a character that comes out later. He’s not in 2K19 in any form.”
“It was speculated based on history that the reason he’s not in is that when they did production of the game last year he was out with an injury because historically if you are out with an injury while they’re in production of the game you don’t end up in the game.”
So for example, Jason Jordan is out right now, he’s probably not in 2K20. But that’s what I was told about Tommaso. It’s not some scandal. It’s not him trying to be a heel, that’s just the story I was told.”
It’s unfortunate he isn’t in the game. The community will surely make him in the game.
