Winner #4: Johnny Gargano
You're seeing the best story in NXT since Sasha and Bayley play out right before your eyes. If Johnny Gargano wasn't the company's most lovable figure before, he definitely is now. After another heartbreaking effort in what many are calling the best match in NXT history, "Johnny Wrestling" came up short against NXT Champion Andrade "Cien" Almas. Then he was attacked by his former #DIY partner, Tommaso Ciampa.

Thus, the stage has been set for what will be one of the best feuds of 2018, and Johnny Gargano's slow, painful character arc will continue. The match between these two at TakeOver: New Orleans is going to be on fire and potentially even overshadow AJ Styles vs. Shinsuke Nakamura the night afterward.
