5 Potential Shawn Michaels Opponents

4. Johnny Gargano

NXT Superstar Johnny "Wrestling" Gargano

They don't call him Johnny Wrestling for no reason. Gargano has earned the moniker as one of the greatest technical wrestlers in the world. His recent NXT matches with Andrade Almas and rival Tommaso Ciampa have become legendary classics forever etched in wrestling lore.

In fact, Gargano's recent performances have been so technically exquisite they have earned him comparisons to none other than Shawn Michaels. In Michaels' interview with SkySports, he specifically named Gargano as a potential opponent while simultaneously addressing concerns about his own age.

That's because Michaels knows that if his own body fails, Gargano has proven capable of carrying the match and putting on a classic with any opponent.
