The rivalry between Trick Williams and Ricky Saints continued this week because the latter defended the NXT Championship against the previous in a Last Man Standing match on Tuesday’s edition of “WWE NXT.” Before the chaos ensued, Williams sat down with “Going Ringside” to supply more context on their feud, which Williams attributes to Saints’ act of stealing the highlight.
“This impostor, this stand-in for Trick Williams, this stunt double for Trick Williams think that he can step up and be the person to hold the brand of NXT,” Williams said. “See, that is when Hollywood Trick has to take a seat him down and show him who’s boss.”
“To be totally honest, me and Oba [Femi] been going at all of it yr long,” he continued. “It has been in regards to the NXT title, the TNA title. Who’s the guy for NXT? Trick Williams or Oba Femi. Me and Oba going at it, we go to war. We go to war. We go to war. I knock Oba all the best way down until he has no power left, then Ricky swoops in and takes the title from him. Now he’s posing like he did something so great. I’m the one which chopped the tree down. He just took the last swing. I can be okay if he gave me my credit, but now he thinks that he’s the person. You are a stunt double.”
At “NXT” No Mercy, Saints stunned the WWE Universe and Oba Femi when he pinned the Nigerian star to capture the NXT Championship. Williams, a former two-time NXT Champion, continued to stake his claim within the title afterward, resulting in a championship match between he and Saints at “NXT” Halloween Havoc. Saints conquered Williams at Halloween Havoc after which over again of their grueling Last Man Standing match on “NXT.” Following the results of the latter, it’s unknown if Williams still views Saints as an alternative choice to him.
