Wrestling veteran Bin Hamin believes AEW President Tony Khan will sign Johnny Gargano immediately if he gets released from WWE.
Gargano spent several years on the independent circuit before officially signing with the Stamford-based company in 2016. The 36-year-old spent five years as an active competitor on NXT, during which he became an NXT Triple Crown Champion. However, he left the company in 2021. On the August 22, 2022, episode of RAW, Gargano returned to WWE under Triple H's creative leadership. He is currently on the Monday Night RAW roster.
Speaking on The Brand podcast, Bin Hamin predicted that Gargano could get let go in a potential second release spree. The wrestling veteran claimed Tony Khan would sign the former NXT Champion immediately if he left WWE.
