TWO WEEKS AGO ON NXT: Johnny Gargano put his NXT career on the line in a Loser Leaves NXT Match against Tommaso Ciampa. As a result (and with some assistance from Drew Gulak) Gargano was forced to leave NXT forever.

MIDDLE CARD PROMO

While Drew Gulak was unavailable for comment, Tommaso Ciampa (looking as if he was seemingly forced to do so) appeared in front of the NXT Universe. However, he remained utterly silent all throughout the segment with the “Blackheart” only giving way to glimmers or rage at the mention of Johnny Gargano from those in the NXT Universe.
