Size isn't everything in wrestling these days, but it's hard to envision someone like Johnny Gargano electrifying Vince McMahon to the point that he's in the main event scene. Competing for the NXT Title is one thing for Gargano, but he probably won't get those opportunities on the main roster.

Don't despair though, because that's not exactly 'Johnny Wrestling's' fault. He proved against Andrade Almas that he could carry a major feud in the ring and on the microphone; the match between them at NXT TakeOver: Philadelphia was so good it earned rave reviews from Dave Meltzer and beyond.

It should also prove to WWE higher-ups that Gargano is ideal for 205 Live.

In order for the company to make that show a success, they need an inflow of superior wrestlers who don't view Cruiserweight action as a demotion. Enzo Amore visibly did (at least at first), and now he's gone it's time to get away from that. Gargano is the perfect guy to legitimise the purple show.
