Will Johnny Gargano’s last four years in NXT ever be topped?
In 2016, Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa shared match of the year honors with The Revival. 2018 saw Johnny Wrestling win rivalry of the year with Ciampa as well as match of the year with Andrade Cien Almas. Last night (Jan. 1) Gargano took home NXT year-end awards for match and rivalry of the year with Adam Cole (bay bay).
Match of the Year and Rivalry of the Year Two-peat. #NXTYearEndAwards

Not to be outdone, and because she’s kind of a jerk now, SmackDown women’s champion Bayley put her two cents in about her own NXT career.
Which ALSO means.........when we were there, you didn’t stand a chance!!!!!!!! #dastandard #darolemodel https://t.co/ZVfkaQR3aX pic.twitter.com/rHfpCkypNH

Back in 2015, Bayley nabbed the awards for Female Competitor of the year and match of the year with Sasha Banks.
Gargano issued a challenge of his own and reminded NXT fans of the great Bayley-Balor romance.
You’re done for.

Awards are great, but did Johnny Wrestling ever have the match of the decade?
