The last time he was out here, he reminded everyone that he was told no at his NXT tryout. This proves what happens when you take no for an answer. This was a long journey but he is finally Johnny Champion. Takeover was the toughest match of his career but . . .

You beat him in the first fall, but then he beat Adam two straight. Johnny reminds Adam he made him tap out in the second fall and again in the third fall. The scoreboard read Johnny Gargano 2 and Adam Cole 1. That means that he is the champion. That is not definitive, it is undisputed. Johnny says he would not be out here whining like some spoiled BAY BAY. If the Bay Bay wants to grow a pair, he will have no problem putting more points on that scoreboard.
