Trick Williams made history on Sunday night as he defeated Joe Hendry to win the TNA World Championship at NXT Battleground. The victory places Williams as the first active WWE-connected Superstar to hold the TNA World – the first such moment in the ongoing partnership between the two wrestling organizations. This win is a significant milestone for Williams, showcasing his ability to compete at the highest level and solidifying his position as a rising star in the industry.
The outcome of the match also leaves the future of the TNA World Championship uncertain, as Hendry’s loss means he will not be defending the title on the card. This win not only boosts Williams’ momentum for the next few weeks but also highlights his potential as a top contender in the wrestling industry. The partnership between WWE and TNA continues to evolve, with this victory serving as a testament to the successful collaboration between the two companies.
Other highlights from the event include Sol Ruca retaining the Women’s North American Championship, Stephanie Vaquer keeping the NXT Women’s Championship, and Oba Femi defending the NXT Championship against Myles Borne. The win marks a significant moment in both Williams’ career and the broader WWE-TNA partnership, with the future of the TNA World Championship remaining an open question.
As the wrestling world watches closely, the next steps for Williams and the future of the TNA World Championship remain to be seen. This victory not only cements Williams’ status as a top-tier wrestler but also sets the stage for further developments in the ongoing partnership between WWE and TNA.
