Another big title change at NXT TakeOver: Phoenix, as Johnny Gargano finally managed to capture his first singles title on the black and gold brand.
Gargano and Ricochet had a fantastic back-and-forth match with plenty of near falls, but in the end, the darker side of "Johnny Badass" emerged and he exposed the concrete at ringside before dropping his opponent on it with a vicious brainbuster.
After that, it was academic. Gargano rolled Ricochet in the ring and hit a second springboard DDT from the apron to pick up the win.
A great night for the conflicted former DIY member, but he may not have a lot of time to celebrate because The Velveteen Dream has his eye on that title.
