#1.) vs Johnny Gargano – NXT Takeover: Philadelphia
After an incredible Extreme Rules match between Aleister Black and Adam Cole, fans felt that Gargano and Almas wouldn’t be able to top their efforts. Were they wrong or what! Gargano and Almas were given plenty of time in their NXT title main event and they started off slow but beautifully constructed the pace of their match to get the crowd involved.
The match is a display of two elite-level wrestlers mastering their craft. The match was nothing short of stunning from start to finish, with the crowd going wild throughout the match. The involvement of Candice LeRae (who was sitting ringside) made for an even more exciting moment and though Gargano didn’t win, he came closer than ever.
After the match, Tommaso Ciampa returned from injury and smacked Gargano in the back with his crutch.
