Summary
Sami Zayn said Johnny Gargano can still return to the ring after months of lying face down on SmackDown and not wrestling since NXT Stand & Deliver in April.
Zayn described Gargano as being in a "vegetative state" who needs the right "spark" to remember who he is, adding that fans could then see an exciting side unseen in a long time.
Gargano has not spoken on screen during the stretch, with Zayn largely using him as a silent sounding board in recent SmackDown segments.
The comments come despite Gargano's deep résumé — including NXT's first Triple Crown and 2 main-roster tag team titles — underscoring hopes that the 1-time NXT champion gets another wrestling run.
