8 HUGE WWE NXT TakeOver: In Your House Predictions You Need To Know
5. Keith Lee (c) Vs. Johnny Gargano
Johnny Gargano is such a great d*ckhead when he's being a great d*ckhead instead of trying to map his character's entire life out like it's the plot of the next MCU flop.
What an obnoxious little tosspot he looked scurrying up the ramp mocking Lee's size, and what an absolute b*stard he was using his car keys to blind the North American Champion on the go-home show. It was while he was indisposed that 'Johnny Wrestling' smashed his hand with the steel stairs too, surely informing how the match will play out on Sunday.
Gargano's created a weak-spot in the typically indestructible champion and will presumably zero in on it to try and reclaim the belt he last wore as a heel in early-2019. He'll fall short with that goal on the night, but both men are in need of a match that steals the show, even inside that crowdless Performance Center.
'Johnny TakeOver' hasn't really been seen since he lost his NXT Championship to Adam Cole at TakeOver: XXV last year. Here's hoping another title match loss unleashes the super-worker that's lay dormant ever since. Keith Lee's run has as titleholder has underwhelmed too - this could be a key turning point in his year.
Winner - Keith Lee
