It's perhaps only a matter of time before smily Candice LeRae gets to show how versatile a performer she is on WWE's main roster. For now, she's happy working in NXT and watching her man Johnny Gargano live out his title dreams. LeRae was there to celebrate with Johnny after he bagged the NXT Title at TakeOver: New York.

Aww.

WWE have created their own indy fed within the machine by pushing NXT as an alternative to the main roster products. Thus, fans who wouldn't typically enjoy WWE fare have somewhere to call their own, and it's given smaller athletes like Gargano a place to excel. That's a powerful position to be in, and it's why he (and Candice) are here.

Together, they're finely poised to rule the NXT landscape for a while. After that, who knows, but they needn't look too far ahead for now.
