Johnny Gargano Comes Home: NXT Cleveland Highlights 3/3/17

NXT packed the Agora Theater in Cleveland, Ohio on March 3rd and they meant business. So did the fans. People in attendance were psyched to watch their hometown boy Johnny Gargano do his thing. Just in case people didn’t believe Gargano was from the same hometown as Miz and Dolph Ziggler, Johnny Wrestling sent out this awesome picture while taking a break at his original home.

Up-and-coming NXT talent Kona Reeves found something very special before the show he decided to share with the world. This is by far one of the coolest things we’ve seen in quite some time.

The Empress of Tomorrow, Asuka was in the building where she defeated Liv Mogan. Although Liv lost her match, she certainly gained a few more fans in Cleveland.

Team DIY defeated Sanity in Cleveland, but before the match got started Gargano’s hometown crowd decided to show him some well-deserved appreciation.

Bobby Roode defeated Tye Dillinger in the main event of the evening. After the match, The Glorious One attempted to carry on his attack but Nakamura (who had previously defeated Andrade “Cien” Almas earlier in the night) ran down for the save.

Team DIY returned to the ring for a curtain call of sorts after Bobby Roode had been dispatched. Johnny Gargano was very over with the crowd, and he received a warm welcome home.

Perfect…

There were a few more awesome tweets from last nigh’s NXT Cleveland show, so we’ll include a few of them below to show you just how appreciated you are.
