WWE’s Trick Williams Pulls Off Shock Win To Keep TNA Title

TNA is still seeking to get its world title back as Trick Williams pulled off a massive shock at Slammiversary.

After bad blood spilt over between Trick Williams and Joe Hendry in recent weeks, Williams and Hendry went to war at Battleground, but in the end, it was a title belt to the head of Hendry in front of the referee that proved decisive.

Trick Williams tried to use the TNA World Title belt to attack Hendry, but was stopped by the WWE official calling the bout. The referee left the belt lying in the ring as he went to count the pinfall when Hendry rolled Williams up. The challenger kicked out and avoided a Standing Ovation with a thumb to Hendry’s eye. Williams then dropped Hendry face-first into the title belt. A Trick Shot proved to be decisive as Williams captured the TNA World Title to make history.

TNA stars were unsurprisingly not happy that a WWE star had captured its biggest title, and it was left to Hendry and Mike Santana to try and bring the gold home at Slammiversary.

Trick Williams Keeps Gold At Slammiversary

At Slammiversary on July 20th, Trick Williams took the low road as he claimed to be injured during the three-way match, leaving Santana and Hendry to battle things out one-on-one.

With things looking certain that Santana would win as he dropped Hendry, Williams cleared the former AEW star from the ring and picked up the shock pin on Joe Hendry.
