In a recent interview with WrestlingINC, newly-crowned WWE NXT North American Champion Johnny Gargano discussed adding Indi Hartwell and Austin Theory to ‘The Way’ stable alongside himself and Candice LeRae.

“Theory was pictured to be with me. I wrestled him a few times in EVOLVE, I think NXT views it as the Triple H and Randy Orton-esque relationship, which I agreed with, I though Theory has tons of potential obviously, he was always in the mix to be one of those guys with me, Indi as well. Me and Candice both think very highly of Indi and think she has a very bright future, so we were very happy to have her with us as well.

We likened it to Evolution in a sense, obviously we’re not putting ourselves on that pedestal, because they are an iconic stable for many reasons. Just the idea of being able to be in the ring and mold younger talent for the future, we think that is very important. Indi being able to be around us, Austin being able to be around us, it can bring out different elements of their characters and different things the people haven’t seen on-screen yet.”
