Johnny Gargano has been a top talent for quite a while now.

I first came across Gargano whilst watching CHIKARA in 2012, and there was something about the man known as Johnny Wrestling. He teamed with Chuck Taylor and Icarus as F.I.S.T (Friends in Similar Tights), and whilst all three brought their own skills to the team Gargano was the one who seemed destined for bigger things.

Bigger things came and Gargano now finds himself signed to NXT whilst simultaneously being involved in the headline feud for EVOLVE. When it comes to the WWE Cruiserweight Classic, Gargano is in that strange position of being one of the favourites but also a dark horse for the tournament.

No one will be surprised if he wins it, but no one is expecting him to.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
