Johnny Gargano is returning to WWE NXT for one more match on April 1st, when he meets Grayson Waller in a singles bout at NXT Stand & Deliver.
Gargano left WWE in December 2021 to take time off, and to capitalize on it, WWE had Waller attack Gargano on his last night in NXT. On Tuesday night’s broadcast, Shawn Michaels revealed that Gargano will be Waller’s opponent at the show.
Gargano, who returned to WWE last year and was put on RAW, took to Twitter to comment on his NXT return. He wrote,
“Because of you.. my story in @WWENXT ended on a cliffhanger 15 months ago. You took my moment from me and I never forgot that. I waited patiently for the right time & place.. April 1st.. Wrestlemania Weekend.. I shut you up & close the book my way. #JohnnyTakeOver #OneMoreTime.”
