Talking about his return, Gargano said that the classic WrestleMania 26 hype video, including The Deadman and The Heartbreak Kid, served as a big factor in his decision to make a comeback.
In his words, “I watched the hype video for Shawn and Taker from Mania and I sat there in the kitchen Candice was right there she can tell you this. I watched this hype video and it just hit me watching this video.”
“I was like ‘this is what I wanna do like I want, this is where I wanna be and this is what I wanna do, this is why I got into this. Like to have videos like these about me but also to like WrestleMania’s stories and matches. And I haven’t had that yet.”
The Undertaker vs Michaels showdown is certainly one of the greatest matches in company history. In light of this circumstance, Gargano felt that he still hadn’t done something similar and was motivated to do so, which is why he came back.
