In-Ring Segment: Johnny Gargano
Gargano says Heartbreak told him he could go as long as he wants. The crowd chants “please don’t go.” Gargano says if he has one regret it is that he didn’t enjoy the past six years as much as he should have. Gargano says the crowd deserves great wrestling and he hopes he gave us that. The first time Gargano came here he was told he would never be in NXT. William Regal is the reason he is here tonight.

In February, he will start the most important job of his life, as a father. Grayson Waller appears out of nowhere and hits Gargano with a chair.
