What is the future of Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae?
Candie LeRae's husband Johnny Gargano allowed his WWE contract to expire in December of last year. Gargano wanted to be with LeRae for the birth of their first child and chose to take time off from the wrestling industry as a whole. Their son Quill was born in February.
Although Johnny Gargano let his deal expire, Sapp believes that both he and LeRae are still on good terms with WWE management and that the company would welcome them back with open arms if they decided to return to WWE later this year.
Should they choose to wrestle elsewhere, there will be no shortage of interest in the Garganos. Promotions such as All Elite Wrestling, IMPACT, New Japan and more would likely compete for the couple's services.
Whatever Mr. and Mrs. Wrestling decide to do next, you can bet they'll make a big impression on the industry regardless of where they end up.
Johnny’s entrance and his gear tonight is going to be like the end of Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Bunch of grown humans crying. It’s ok. We’re in this together, guys!
