In a battle that involved two of NXT’s biggest wrestlers, we were ready to see anything and everything go down the line. We were ready to see The Undisputed Era wreak havoc, we were ready to see some assists from Gargano’s side, we were ready to see the use of weapons and we were ready to see the display of superhuman strength and endurance.

However, one thing we were not ready for was to see someone kick out of the Last Shot. In case you didn’t know, the Last Shot is Adam Cole’s finishing maneuver.

While Cole was able to score the first pin by delivering his finisher to Gargano, he was unsuccessful in pinning the man who won the title after delivering two more Last Shots later in the match.

This was a huge shocker, as the Last Shot is arguably the most effective finishing maneuver in WWE today, and even the commentators immediately announced the fact that Johnny Gargano was the first WWE Superstar to kick out of Adam Cole's 'Last Shot'.

By letting Gargano kick out of the move twice, WWE managed to make him look like a superhuman, but that was at the expense of Adam Cole’s best weapon!
