Finn Balor has taken out men of all sizes

#1 To set up Johnny Gargano’s return

With everything currently going on in WWE NXT, fans shouldn't forget about what Finn Balor did to Johnny Gargano. The two men were scheduled to meet at NXT TakeOver: WarGames last month, but Gargano was not medically cleared for the match after the beating he received from Balor.

Keeping that in mind, Gargano could return very soon to avenge what Balor did to him. With such a big match on the horizon, there seems to be no better time than next week for his return.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

Balor took a lot away from Gargano by attacking him, and Johnny could get his revenge by costing The Prince his championship shot next week. This would immediately allow creative to pick up the rivalry from where they left off, and give fans a huge battle to look forward to in the process.

Since Tommaso Ciampa was not pinned in last night’s match, we could then watch Ciampa climb back up to challenge Adam Cole for the title instead, while Gargano takes care of Balor.
