However fantastic the match between Johnny Gargano and Aleister Black was, it put Johnny Wrestling in a no-win position.
In attacking Black, Gargano sunk to the dark side, turning his back on his usual ways and relying on sneak attacks and trickery to try to win. While he didn’t explicitly cheat, Johnny definitely was more vicious and deceptive than he had been previously – and he still came up short.
So while Gargano continued to claim that he was the hero of this story and could have been considered a tweener of sorts, he lost, so that doesn’t exactly mean he learns the error of his ways and reforms.
Does a full heel Gargano have more success? Guys his size often become chickens**t heels, not badasses. While it’s too early to tell, there’s just some questions this leaves, and they’ll require some skillful answers from the writers.
