Gargano recently spoke about these matches and their rivalry with the Revival in a recent interview with Ryan Satin.

“Obviously, our work with The Revival, I cannot say enough good things about that. That really cemented us. That was our first TakeOver. TakeOver: Brooklyn at the Barclays center was our first one and to go in there with those guys, and to have that match; I don’t think I’d be sitting here today if that match didn’t go the way it did.

“I think that match went so well, it made them realize ‘Oh wait a minute, we might have we might have something special here with these guys’. The rest is history but to be able to do that and have the two-out-of-three falls in Toronto, we were made men.”

Harwood echoed the sentiment on his social media. He wrote:

“A very special match, at a very special time, with a very special team. It made all of our careers. Absolutely down to do it again.”

Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
