Johnny Gargano has vowed to end his championship curse this week on NXT, and he says he’ll do so against a “worthy opponent” this week on NXT.
The first two-time NXT North American Champion is out to right what he calls the one blemish on his storied black-and-gold brand legacy. Both previous times Gargano has held a singles title in NXT, he lost in his first defense.
His first North American Title reign lasted only 25 days, and he lost the NXT Championship in his first defense against Adam Cole last year.
Who will Johnny Wrestling face, and will he finally put the curse to bed? Plus, will the NXT Universe come any closer to learning the identity of the masked assailant who helped him become champion?
