WWE Tag Team Confront TNA Champion On Surprise NXT Return
NXT is set for a homecoming in a few weeks, and one WWE main roster tag team returned to the brand where it all began for them in the company.
Trick Williams has every right to be as arrogant as he feels like, as the current TNA World Champion. Williams was feeling on top of the world on the September 2nd edition of Raw as he took to the ring to dismiss the NXT Homecoming event taking place at Full Sail University.
Williams claimed that he was the greatest NXT star of all time, but that caught the attention of a tag team synonymous with the brand, DIY – Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa.
DIY’s WWE Journey Began In NXT
Gargano and Ciampa have both held the NXT Championship and the NXT Tag Team Championship, with Gargano also holding the NXT North American Title. With those accolades, they took exception to Williams’ claim and ended up laying him out with their tag team finisher.
Trick Williams later seemed to lay down a challenge to DIY for a tag team match and hinted that his partner could be someone with experience in NXT as well.

Another huge tag team match has been made for the September 9th edition of NXT, with Sol Ruca & Zaria, The Culling, and Fatal Influence clashing in a triple threat match to become number one contenders to the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship. Alexa Bliss and Charlotte Flair currently hold that gold.
