Before NXT TakeOver: New Orleans, Daniel Bryan discussed the interesting prospects on NXT, stating that he’s keeping his eye on one man in particular.

Daniel Bryan’s wish of Johnny Gargano losing last night didn’t come true, however, as he defeated his former best friend Tommaso Ciampa in a brutal main event match.
Gargano responded to Bryan’s praise, however. While he appreciates the kind words, he said that he has a few more things left to do in NXT.
I appreciate it, @WWEDanielBryan. Rain check? I have a few more things I need to accomplish in @WWENXT first..
PS: I can't wait to watch you back in the ring where you belong today at the freaking Superdome! ❤ https://t.co/dCPenzEvLD

With Gargano finally getting that big win that has escaped him since the breakup of #DIY, it looks like he’s ready to move on to something bigger. Maybe a newly created title that debuted at TakeOver?
