I feel like that's a complaint with wrestling in general at this point in time. It's all a ton of finisher kick outs. Gargano just happens to often be in the main event the bulk of the time, so he's more subject to it than most since main event matches have to be bigger and more epic than the matches that precede them.
But this was ridiculous. Gargano could have been shot at point blank range and he would have kicked out at 2 if they found a way. Theirs suspending disbelief and then theirs jumping the shark and they may have done that here.
He kicked out of an avalanche canadian destroyer. That kafaybe should be enough to not only get the three count but for him to get stretchered away and put into the back of an ambulance and write him off.
Back when we were all growing up it was first to hit a finisher wins. Period. It started getting out of hand right after Taker vs Michaels part 1. Kicked out of multiple tombstones and superkicks. And for the time and occasion, made for great suspense. But now it's being overdone souch that finishers don't mean shite anymore. That's bad for business
Edit to add: to touch on your "that should've put him in an ambulance " comment. I don't know if your old enough to remember or have seen, but Hulk Hogan, pre-heel WWF superhero Hulk Hogan, was kayfabe put in the hospital from being attacked by earthquake and eating a couple of his finishers. Nowadays any Joe, Dick, or Tom would kick out at a count of 2.
