Right now, there are several names who could be considered the hottest free agent in professional wrestling. However, coming off a legendary run in WWE NXT – Johnny Gargano remains at the front of everyone’s mind. After getting to scratch WarGames off his to-do list, he’d leave WWE – and has yet to make his next move.
Gargano is trying to decide where he fits into wrestling in 2022. While AEW seems the obvious choice, there’s part of Gargano that wishes he took the next step within WWE.
Johnny Gargano Feels He Could Still Wrestle At Wrestlemania Someday
While speaking with WhatCulture, Johnny Gargano would discuss his feelings on WWE at this point – and how he feels there is more to be done there.
”WWE, at the end of the day, was always the company I watched growing up. It was my dream to be there. It was my dream to wrestle for that company and I had a hell of a run there. There is a big part of me that still feels a little unfulfilled. I felt like, towards the end of my NXT run, I felt complete. I feel I did everything I possibly could in NXT, but for me, I’m always this underdog looking for different mountains to climb and hills to topple over.
I just want a new mountain to climb. The time period worked out to where I could take a little bit of a break, reset, reassess things, figure out what I want out of this thing, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that there is a little part of me that says, ‘you could wrestle at WrestleMania one day.’
It was a dream come true to wrestle there and I still dream of one day being Intercontinental Champion, being WWE Champion, wrestling at WrestleMania. Those are still goals I haven’t hit. I’m only 34, I have a long way to go. I’ve accomplished a lot of things and I’m far from done. Shawn Michaels came back at 38 and had a hell of a run. You never know what could happen in the future.”
As of right now, Johnny Gargano remains a free agent.
