Predicting Tommaso Ciampa's reign as NXT Champion

#5 Hell to pay

The only fitting end.

Faced with Johnny Gargano yet again, Tommaso Ciampa will do everything he can to get under his blood rival's skin. Gargano will tell Ciampa that this time, he's staying true to himself, and he'll beat him the way he always should have, just like he did a year before in New Orleans.

That doesn't mean that tempers won't flare and fisticuffs won't ensue. A vicious brawl will break out. Finally, General Manager William Regal will step in, telling both men that he's had enough.

Regal will say that in Brooklyn, this business will end once and for all. At TakeOver: Brooklyn 5, he'll say, it will be Tommaso Ciampa vs. Johnny Gargano. The winner will leave as NXT Champion. The loser will leave NXT forever. To make sure that there's no funny business, the match will take place inside Hell in a Cell.

There, much to Tommaso Ciampa's horror, Johnny Gargano will show up in a way he's never showed up before. After over half an hour in the most brutal, bitter match in NXT history, Johnny Gargano will at last vanquish his rival and become NXT Champion in the most cathartic moment in WWE since Daniel Bryan's victory at WrestleMania 30.

Ciampa will at last be thrown out of the NXT kingdom, exiled to the main roster. Johnny Gargano will at last have found peace and achieved his dream.
