Johnny has been putting on absolute wrestling clinics over the course of 2018. Ricochet does things that no human should be able to do. That mixture worked perfectly at Takeover.

The match has too many classic moments to count. Ricochet constantly landing on his feet, Ricochet’s leap over the top rope and Johnny Gargano’s move onto the cement.

It sold the story well. Johnny Wrestling was willing to go to the “dark side” to get the singles title he coveted. So it leads to the obvious question: when do we get a rematch with Gargano-Richochet?
