Pro-wrestling superstar and current free agent Johnny Gargano spoke about his love of Nickelodeon during a recent edition of his Twitch stream, which included the former NXT triple-crown champion revealing that he and his wife, WWE superstar Candice LeRae, were originally supposed to appear and get slimed - Nickelodeon's highest honor - at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in 2020! Unfortunately, due to COVID-19, Nickelodeon had to postpone the event, moving it from the planned big stadium event hosted by Chance the Rapper in March to a virtually-produced filmed-at-home event hosted by Nick alum Victoria Justice (Victorious, Zoey 101, Fun Size) in May.
During his Twitch stream, the pro-wrestler revealed:
“Little known fact. I will break some other news for you here. So before the pandemic, me and Candice, we were actually scheduled — this is going to be one of the biggest missed opportunities of my life. Me and Candice, we were actually scheduled to go to the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards and get slimed. Like that was a real thing that was gonna happen," adding: "Yeah, it sucks, man. I know. Right before the pandemic, like literally, it was all set. We had our travel booked and everything. We’re gonna go to the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, and be on the [orange] carpet, do all the good stuff, and get slimed. Then, the pandemic happened and the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards didn’t happen. So yeah, that would have been — the Bucket List item is still there for me.”
Johnny, a rational person, has decided that it is all Chuck Taylors’ fault because he blames Chuck Taylor for everything. “I blame Chuck Taylor, too. I blame him for everything,” Johnny concluded.
The former WWE star also revealed that two of his favorite Nickelodeon shows are Henry Danger and its spin-off, Danger Force:
“I don’t know if it’s weird, but I think I love Henry Danger and Danger Force. I don’t know, is it if it’s weird to say as a 34-year-old man, but if there are other people that are like my age, can you affirm or confirm what I’m saying here? Henry Danger or The Thundermans — Henry Danger is good, man. That’s a good show. If you haven’t seen it yet, that’s a good show. I feel like it’s for adults, too. So I don’t know. It’s good. Danger Force, also good. There’s that. I just want to get that out in the world, stuff I’m watching or doing lately. I mean, I’d love to go to Nickelodeon.”
