As 2021 comes to a close, the next stage of the career of Johnny Gargano is just beginning. After spending five years having some of the best matches of his career in WWE with their NXT brand, including some that many rate five stars or above, he’s betting on himself and taking his career into his own hands. However, he hasn’t really revealed where the next stage of his career will happen — but is seeming to lean towards AEW.
Johnny Gargano Wants To Wrestle Some Of The Top Names In AEW
This rumor comes from a recent Twitch stream, where Gargano noted some people he would like to wrestle in 2022. Names such as Kenny Omega, Bryan Danielson, and Lee Moriarty. Kenny Omega in particular is a dream match for Gargano, with him saying the following about it.
“I think Kenny is one of, if not the, best wrestlers in the world currently. So, I know that’s a dream match for a lot of people, me and Kenny, and it’s a dream match for me, too. So, who knows what can happen one day.”
Most fans can agree that would be a fantastic match, but even if Gargano joins AEW – it is one that will have to wait. Omega is still out as he heals up from multiple injuries. Bryan Danielson & Lee Morairty are easy matches to set up, and would be arguably just as good as a clash with Omega.
AEW Hits Cleveland On January 26th
If Gargano is to join AEW, there is a perfect time to do just that. They will be in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio on January 26th, 2022. Unlike talent who were released from WWE, Gargano has no non-compete clause to worry about. Really the only things keeping him from showing up in AEW right now is a pregnant wife and love of spending time with his family on the holidays.
He would get a heroes welcome if he showed up on the January 26th episode of AEW Dynamite. Gargano could even claim gold right out of the gates – provided the TNT Champion holds an open challenge.
