• Reason Behind Johnny Gargano Being Off WWE TV
Johnny Gargano was last seen on WWE programming at NXT Stand & Deliver 2023, where he defeated Grayson Waller in an unsanctioned match.
According to Fightful Select, Gargano is currently out of action with a shoulder injury:
“Gargano re-aggravated the shoulder injury that had him sidelined for much of January. After only having a couple of matches his first few weeks back, Gargano ended up wrestling a dozen matches after March 4.
We’re told that the shoulder injury got worse after his Royal Rumble return, and by the time of the NXT match with Grayson Waller he was severely hampered and using one arm.
The hope from the company is that he can repair the injury with physical therapy as opposed to surgery.”
