Johnny Gargano’s wife, Candice LeRae, issued the flowing statement regarding Tommaso Ciampa’s attack on her husband at Saturday’s NXT Takeover event:
“Johnny is hurting physically, mentally, and we’re drained emotionally. It was a long night and we appreciate everyone’s support and kind words. It’s going to be a process, but my husband is resilient and will back stronger than ever ASAP.
We will try to keep you updated on his progress. For now, this is all I can say on the matter. I have no words for the absolutely selfish acts of this person we believed was apart of our family.
Thank you all for your love and support.”
