Johnny Gargano "Could Show Up Anywhere At This Point"
The NXT Triple Crown Champion is now a free agent - and he's ready to work.
Johnny Gargano wants you to know that he could feasibly show up anywhere at the moment.
Speaking on his first ever Twitch stream, the NXT Triple Crown Champion said that he watches "everything" and is listening out for "Johnny Wrestling" chants, teasing the idea of popping up in a new company:-
"The 'Johnny Wrestling' chants, they mean the world to me and if you chant 'Johnny Wrestling' somewhere, loud enough, you never know what could happen. I could show up anywhere at this point. That's real. I'm free to do whatever I want. So if someone wants to see me bad enough, the 'Johnny Wrestling' chants come in... I'll hear 'em. I watch everything, so you never know."

Gargano, 34, is currently a free agent after ending his six-year WWE association last week. His final contract with the market-leading promotion was allowed to expire following a short one-week extension allowing him to work through NXT WarGames on 5 December. That he left at his deal's agreed end date, rather than being released, means Johnny isn't bound to a non-compete clause.
Though Gargano's first post-WWE appearance is yet to be confirmed, last week saw him start the Twitch channel and re-launch his old Pro Wrestling Tees merch store - two moves that wouldn't be allowed under a typical WWE contract.
