10 HUGE WWE NXT TakeOver: Stand & Deliver Predictions You Need To Know
4. Johnny Gargano (c) Vs. Gauntlet Eliminator Winner
Having predicted Dexter Lumis, we're now faced with booking an enjoyable Johnny Gargano/Dexter Lumis match, begging the question of why one of other contenders wouldn't get the nod in the earlier entry.
The answer to that, is that it just has to be this way. The Way. It has to be The Way. Because that's what they're called and if you expect better patter than that then blame this feud for siphoning all of it out.
Lumis gave Austin Theory stockholm syndrome (which isn't even the biggest reason why Gargano should stop being friends with him), and has a look that Indi Hartwell seemed to like too. Candice LeRae has gone largely unaffected, even no-selling her husband's selling of the stupidity, proving that she's the leader of the group regardless of how many scenes Gargano steals.
And that's the saddest thing of all - 'Johnny Wrestling' has gone full Johnny Comedy to try and make this thing work, but even the greats can't necessarily sell mountains of sh*t without simply admitting it's a mountain of sh*t. The North American may stand atop that mountain of sh*t by the end, but it'll take a while to scrape the stink off his boots.
Winner - Johnny Gargano
