Johnny Gargano comments on his wrestling future
Former WWE Superstar Johnny Gargano has commented on his future in wrestling.
The first-ever NXT Triple Crown Champion left WWE in late 2021, after deciding to let his contract expire Gargano and his wife, fellow professional wrestler Candice LeRae, recently welcomed their son, Quill into the world.
During a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet, Johnny Wrestling described how he is keeping his options open in regards to where he will wrestle next.
“My options are 100% open,” Gargano said. “And I watch everything, honestly. You can watch my YouTube video, I watch – me and Candice were watching AEW laying in the hospital room. We were watching NXT laying in the hospital room. We were watching Elimination Chamber laying in the hospital room. I literally watch everything. I’m a wrestling fan at the end of the day, and I enjoy good wrestling. I really enjoy watching my friends be successful. That makes me very, very happy." H/T Wrestling Inc

Given Gargano's impressive track record, he will have no trouble finding a new promotion to wrestle for. The main factor that he seems to be taking into account right now is which move would be best for him and his family.
Johnny Gargano is unsure of where he fits in the wrestling landscape right now
During his time in NXT, Johnny Gargano delivered many classic matches against top stars like Adam Cole and Tommaso Ciampa.
While he has proven that he is one of the best performers of his generation, Johnny Wrestling admitted to Chris Van Vliet that he does not know where he fits in the wrestling landscape at the moment.
“I don’t know really where I fit in right now in the wrestling landscape," said Gargano. "But I also feel like the wrestling landscape changes not on a monthly, but a weekly basis. It’s one of the things where a new company could pop up, this person’s going to be in charge, or this person’s going to do this, or this person’s going to do that, or AEW’s doing this, or ROH is doing this, NXT is doing this. It literally changes on a weekly basis.” (H/T Wrestling Inc)
Regardless of when he decides to get back into the squared circle, many fans are looking forward to the day that Johnny Wrestling laces up his boots again.
