Transcript
00:00oh yeah that's like say what yeah uh-huh i like it oh yeah man oh yeah man say what
00:22yeah that's right checking my job that's that man usually called out of granted
00:32booker is provocative he gets the people going
00:39the following contest gets up for one fall is for the tna world championship
00:52introducing first from columbia south carolina weighing in at 245 he is the tna world champion
01:03trick
01:04this is the 11th tna title defense of 2025 the sixth by the way the sixth on nxt
01:18and his opponent accompanied by yoshiki and obora weighing in at 295
01:43this is his biggest opportunity to date well time will tell whether or not the man of mayhem has what
01:59it takes to become the face of tna wrestling we know trick williams will not go down without a fight
02:07but josh briggs is a superstar all too eager to throw hands with the best of them
02:11look josh briggs could win tonight could find himself headlining tna slam-aversary as champion
02:18on july 20th on july 20th you can't be right you can't be it's a possibility but
02:23you said a stat of a few minutes ago it's going to be defending that championship they said you're not
02:29a champion until you defend right now trick williams has gone out there and done that
02:33now they also say when you become champion it makes you about 10 to 15 20 percent
02:39there's a lot of uh i guess chatter surrounding this matchup after tna director of authority
02:47made the decision to have this match this week what are your thoughts about morella's decision
02:53that josh briggs is competing in this matchup josh briggs competing in this matchup i'm gonna tell you
02:59it's a lot of ridiculous i'm gonna tell you but it's the biggest mistake in amora could have ever made
03:04in his career man because he could have been stepping into the footsteps of greatness
03:08i agree with you wholeheartedly on that book i don't know what in amora was thinking i guess
03:14you got to respect the decision who knows but that if anything just puts more pressure on the shoulders
03:19of josh briggs because josh doesn't want to let in amora down just like he doesn't want to fail
03:24or let the nxt universe down and again the grazers no doubt briggs owes everything right now to his tag team
03:31park 100 and i think inamora's gone above and beyond to try to pull briggs out of this professional
03:36funk that he's been in lately and for josh briggs he's never competed for the nxt championship into
03:42the cover once that gold around his waist you can feel the sense of urgency coming from briggs his
03:46last singles championship he contended for you got to go back to last year
03:50look at this flying clothesline from josh briggs nearly taking tricks head off but william's able to survive
03:58there's something graves just said booker i want to get your thoughts on it does this matchup add
04:03more pressure to the shoulders of josh briggs i think so i mean this is like you just said yourself
04:08i mean his first shot at a world title and right now you can see slim in a situation like this
04:16and i'm gonna tell you right now losing this match could just crush his confidence i'm really curious as
04:21for the mentality inside of the tna locker room right now because we know the tna roster is eager to see
04:27trick williams dethrone but i think everybody's sort of under the assumption it's going to be by a tna
04:31wrestler not josh briggs and trick williams has turned this matchup around after a chop right to
04:37the throat and then dropping briggs face first and booker you know the return of inamora certainly i think
04:44you would agree has benefited briggs up until this job i mean this motivated him of course because he's got a
04:49damn title shot something that he didn't do on his own so so my thing is
04:52this is a must win situation for the big man in my opinion and amora has been asking his tag team
04:59partner to think bigger think bigger is what he has been saying to josh booker i got a question for
05:06you how long was it after you separated from your brother as a member of harlem heat before you
05:10shoulders are down referee great position before you really felt comfortable standing on your own
05:15like you were a real contender it was a minute because having my brother in my corner for that
05:19eight nine plus years i mean it was like a security blanket man i knew i could go out there
05:24and just let it all hang out so so that's the difference
05:28tag team wrestling big suplex from the challenger again it was inamora who pinned
05:35trick williams last week it was inamora who stated that if if if there was a championship opportunity
05:41to be handed out he wanted his partner josh briggs to have it because briggs has earned it
05:46briggs charging back in knows this could be his only opportunity at gold just got caught by the
05:52champion rick just rocked the job briggs is laughing it off that'll put a hole in your soul
05:59certainly will trick a second time couldn't take the big man down
06:04and briggs just switched gears and now trick answering back my god this is like two locomotives
06:11colliding swinging wildly right back and that's a drop kick from the champion challenger knocked to the outside
06:17that's that guy trick williams right there showing the fidelity going airborne right there
06:21i love it man briggs is walking a little stiff-legged like he might have had his bell rung
06:26wouldn't be surprised that may have been a disqualification of inamora
06:35boot to the face briggs is he walking out with a tna world title
06:43josh briggs has just dropped the champion and certainly graves has swung the momentum of this
07:02man what you can't i was gonna say i was gonna cut you off for booker vick i mean let's be honest
07:06that was inamora's doing right there what do you think i understand who threw the punch
07:10trick through the punch inamora blocked it and inamora turned him into his partner trick caused
07:16his own thing by himself but when you try to punch somebody who's not a legal competitor
07:20you don't get disqualified it's when the illegal competitor puts their hands on a legal competitor
07:24that the disqualification why are you two creeping in on me right now it's a logical point
07:29are you serious serious about what yes
07:31i'm gonna restore a little decorum here as josh briggs
07:36tees off of a tna world champion on briggs
07:41again has never had an opportunity at the nxt championship you know one would call this
07:47right here an unfair advantage but i you know me i always said you ain't cheating you ain't
07:51trying so i get it so now you agree with no no i get it from the big man i'm just saying i'll
07:56admit it i'll just say it like it is unlike you what do you mean i say it like it is every week
08:01boom a little gourd buster there by briggs briggs again getting this tna world title
08:07opportunity trying to make the most in a kick out by trick williams and it has been since
08:12the north american championship matchup last year around stand and deliver in philadelphia
08:20the last time josh briggs has even slipped a possible championship around his waist
08:26listen when you're near the top of the mountain and you manage to fall down it can be a long
08:31sometimes endless climb back toward the top good night good bye
08:36kick tornado tornado right to the dome i love it man
08:42trick williams approaching his first month as tna world champion and now getting right on top of the
08:50the challenger raining down right grab the bone grab the bone i love it man
08:54trick dropping the channel for one more time and quickly trick into another cover sense of urgency
09:03now for the champion in another near fall trip williams a winner of five straight singles matches
09:10looking to make it a six let's talk about it let's talk about it let's talk about it once again i just tell it book
09:16like it is finally for a change put the man over all right put some shine on it put some respect
09:23on his name for change for god's sake all right now something of a guillotine applied by the tna
09:30world champion trick williams smart strategy to wear down the big man josh briggs who is walking out
09:37tna world champion tonight here on nxt
09:42we are kicking off the night with a championship class for the tna world title our heritage cup

09:57that cup but man what action just moments ago break a look at this this is a credit to the
10:02darkness of josh briggs trick williams right on the money and briggs somehow survived and is now
10:10looking to make his way back into this fight and we learned over the weekend that a former tna champion
10:16will get his rematch at slammiversary july 20th in new york but the question is who will hendry face
10:25will it be trick williams will it be josh briggs we're finding out here tonight and briggs overpowering
10:31who is thinking and planning the champion that could be the tide turner that the man of mayhem so
10:37needed briggs is looking fired up and back into this battle right now again it's two nxt superstars
10:44battling over the tna world title graves that certainly has had to have been a tough pill
10:48for some to slide since history was made at battleground big splash by briggs though some i'm sure you're
10:55referring to the tna roster who are not thrilled that a nxt superstar holds their top prize however
11:02you have to look at the business aspect of it ratings are up the numbers are up i heard that
11:06about giving that clown hanafin a raise it's been good for business for tna well the tna director of
11:12authority santino morella made this matchup and again the pendulum is swinging back and forth
11:18into the cover for the champion and the challenger that was close just getting that shoulder so close
11:26and now check right back on top and i like what we're seeing out of trick williams book i think
11:34you'll agree this is showing the maturity of trick williams he's not panicking he's frustrated but he
11:39understands just continue to pour on the punishment don't make any mistakes very very patient trick williams
11:45have been in the matchup taking advantage of every every opening every time a crack a door open he's
11:53right in the big shot oh yes he's almost welcoming the physicality here ducking one going right back to
12:00the body's big uppercut under the jaw of briggs trick coming right back in got caught briggs could be
12:06looking for that massive chuck slam counter by williams williams swing and miss coming right back trick
12:12wherewithal right there knowing exactly where he is in the middle of that playing circle
12:19what a way to kick off nxt here on the cw
12:48tna world title on the line big four arm shot there by the big man and a more on the outside
12:55looking on but briggs certainly has brought out his a game here tonight for his championship
13:02opportunity look and we talk all the time about the importance of adding new layers new wrinkles to
13:06your game plan we have seen plenty of that from briggs tonight not just briggs drinking well i mean
13:11those deep waters you got to pull out every time in the tool bag man and these men are starting to
13:18throw hands and instead it was briggs who threw a size 16 shoe into the face of trick trick answer
13:25right back to the side of the face trick now pump kick under the jaw briggs is rock briggs is down to his knee
13:32trick williams oh got caught and got planted big lariat from briggs what a championship match guys
13:41and now what the briggs leaving his feet you gotta leave it all in the ring oh no miscalculation
13:50you gotta leave it all in the ring josh briggs understood
14:19the assignment a thunderous lariat takes down trick and here's where briggs went for broke
14:26and unfortunately for josh it did not pay off bang trick shot by the tna world champion
14:35and conditions in the russs and still
14:43and y'all cut the music it's about time y'all put some freaking respect on my name
14:50i went from carrying him to carrying two brands at the same time
14:59In other words, I'm the greatest TNA champion of all.
15:06I see his name and he appears, I believe in Joe Hendry.
15:14Williams couldn't even finish his statement.
15:17Because the number one contender, Joe Hendry just appeared.
15:24From a high turnaround trick this town.
15:26And Joe Hendry, getting him some of Trick Williams, the man he will meet at Swamp Thursery for
15:37the TNA world title, July 20th.
15:40Trick Williams, the man who took what Joe Hendry valued most.
15:45Hendry, unhinged, unglued, obsessed with bringing the world title back to team.
