However, earlier today, False Finish posted an update on X (Formerly Twitter) claiming that Gargano hasn’t had WWE in his bio for years. It was further pointed out that the former NXT Champion is still on the internal roster.

Johnny Gargano’s last match was on the go-home edition of Friday Night SmackDown before WrestleMania 42. He was one of the participants in the André the Giant Memorial 2026 Battle Royal.

WWE Superstar Johnny Gargano opened up about his father’s illness

Earlier this month, Johnny Gargano posted an update on social media to share details about his father’s illness.

The 39-year-old noted that he was going to take a break from TV to talk about his father’s stage 4 lung and prostate cancer. He shared a long, heartfelt message, appreciating his fight against the heartbreaking illness. Gargano further clarified that he was going to take a break from his on-screen character to share details about his real life on social media.

“Gonna take a break from the TV bit for a minute to share some important real life stuff that’s been weighing on me with you all. This is my Dad. He’s 84 years old, and up until a few years ago when our family restaurant unfortunately burned down, he’s worked every single day of his life. He is the most stubborn, resilient, hardest working person I know (definitely where I get it from)… To clear up any confusion. I meant I’m taking a break from staying true to the TV bit on social media to post this,” Gargano wrote.

Only time will tell what the future holds for Johnny Gargano and Candice LeRae.
