Dream leaps to the cage door but is dragged back by Strong, who attempts to do the same thing. Dream spikes him with two Dream Valley Drivers.

Strong picks up the stick and uses it for a modified pumphandle backbreaker.

Dream nearly taps out, but manages to roll up Strong for a two-count.

That was intense...

Gargano's so intense he actually scares Mauro off, ending the interview early. He says that next week, they do things his way at the PC.

Ranallo asks Gargano why he did what he did. Gargano says that everyone knows why. He calls out Mauro for calling him "Johnny Turncoat" even though he never called and asked why face-to-face.

Gargano denies sneak attacking Ciampa, stating that at TakeOver he stared him right in the eyes and the next week he was wearing a "powder blue sportscoat."

Gargano says that Mauro is vital to NXT. He's the one that tells their stories.

Johnny Gargano was interviewed by Mauro Ranallo at the Performance Center earlier.

Mauro just called these two "Young Lions."

WWE Universe is all about this Swerve/Theory match. Rightfully so, these two are incredible.

Uh....if you're not watching...turn to #NXT - this Theory vs. Swerve match is starting off well
