'I know a lot of people are wondering why this is happening now,' the wrestler told Newsweek. 'Well, because it has to. It has to end for us to move on and I think the 'Final Chapter'' is one that people will remember for a long time.'

superstars Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa has been the heart and soul of the brand for more than four years.

"It's a bit of a bummer. You have high hopes, aspirations for this match, or the culmination of this feud that has been going on for over four years at this point," Gargano toldon Tuesday."You were hoping for that dream ending, that dream scenario. That packed house, that amazing atmosphere of a Takeover, but things happen, man. You can't predict these things."

I can't argue with that. If you were in the Firefly Fun House would you be concerned by what would be brought up about your life and career? Like you said, there's no real finality. I compare it to Triple H and Shawn Michaels, whenever they are around each other it always seems to go a certain way. The term"forever" is thrown around a lot, but I don't know how long, with Tommaso's history of neck surgery and things like that.

How does it feel to have this culmination of your feud happen in front of nobody, instead of a hot crowd at a Takeover? I've been doing the same thing since the beginning here at NXT, so I'm excited for something new. I'm excited for something fresh, excited to try on a new character and get my foot in this new realm that we're playing with here. I think that's a big important reason why this Tommaso thing needs to end. We need to move on so I can move on and do a new thing and my own thing that I'm very excited for.

Talent-wise, it's incredible. A lot of people are talking about my and Tommaso's match but you can't forget there's this friggin' ladder match going down that's going to be amazing. With Candice [LeRae], Tegan [Nox], Dakota [Kai], Mia [Yim], Chelsea [Green], and Io [Shirai]. People aren't gravitating to one guy, that time is done. With the internet and how fans are nowadays, people aren't all-in on just one person. There was a time where underdog Johnny Gargano was top babyface in the world, but that time is long gone. It's ok for viewers to like what they like, enjoy what they enjoy, hate what they hate—I guess—and NXT has something for everyone.
