It was revealed on WWE Backstage that Johnny Gargano will be out of Survivor Series weekend due to a neck injury sustained at the hands of Finn Balor a couple weeks ago.
The former NXT Champion took to his official Twitter account where he wrote the following:
Full honesty.. I'm really proud of our team but sitting back and watching the NXT crew represent on RAW and Smackdown from the sidelines has been hard.
My silver lining was the hope I had that I'd be able to make it back for TakeOver.. but that's not the case.
I'm heartbroken. https://t.co/CF7hgv3xw1
