Trick Williams Wins NXT Championship at Spring Breakin’ – Trick Williams won the NXT Championship by pinning Ilja Dragunov in the main event of tonight’s NXT Spring Breakin’ special. After a knee strike secured him the win, Williams and Dragunov shared a hug, and Dragunov handed over the championship. The show concluded with Williams celebrating among the fans.
Dragunov’s 206-day reign as champion comes to an end. He won the title by defeating Carmelo Hayes at No Mercy in September.
Following his victory over Hayes at NXT Stand & Deliver during WrestleMania weekend, Williams challenged Dragunov to another title match. Dragunov agreed, but only if Williams put his NXT career on the line.
During the show, several WWE main roster stars shared their thoughts on the main event. Former NXT Champion Johnny Gargano encouraged Williams before his entrance, while Dragunov received good wishes from World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest during an interview.
