Johnny Gargano (A.K.A Johnny Wrestling) is one of the most beloved Superstars in all of wrestling. His style in the squared circle and his overall approach is what draws The NXT Universe to him whether he may be a face or a heel. Gargano has already accomplished a lot in his career in NXT but it seems that he isn’t done yet. Johnny Gargano recently took to Twitter and shared a bucket list tweet he created back in September 2017, which revealed a check list he had made two years prior. The bucket list had the following accomplishments – Get On A TakeOver Event, Win The NXT Tag Team Titles, Main Event A TakeOver, Have The Match Of The Year, Get His Own Action Figure, Be In A Video Game & Win The NXT Title.
As seen on his list, Gargano has a check mark on every item except winning The NXT Title, which he plans on doing when he faces Adam Cole for the vacant NXT Title in a 2-Out-Of-3 Falls Match at The TakeOver: New York Event during WrestleMania 35 Weekend. Also seen below, Gargano & Cole recently took to Twitter to comment on their big title match.
Cole would write, “This is it. This is the moment I have talked about since I debuted at #NXTTakeOver in Brooklyn. 2/3 Falls. Cole vs Gargano…
It’s about time I get what I deserve. #AndNew #NXTChampion #UndisputedERA #AdamColeBayBay”
Gargano would respond with, “GARGANO vs COLE For the first time in an NXT ring in a 2 out of 3 falls match in the Main Event of #NXTTakeover: New York for the vacant NXT Championship on the biggest weekend of the year. What’s meant to be will always find a way.. One night, one champion, one DESTINY.”
