– Johnny Gargano has climbed the mountain at last to claim the NXT Championship at NXT Takeover: New York. Gargano defeated Adam Cole in the Two of Three Falls main event of Friday night’s show to win the title that has eluded him so far. You can see pics and video from the match below.
The championship was guaranteed to see a new champion, since Tomasso Ciampa had to vacate the title after he underwent surgery. After Gargano’s win, Ciampa came out to celebrate with him on the ramp. The win makes Gargano the first NXT Triple Crown winner.
