Trick Williams vs. Ethan Page NXT title match set for Battleground
The NXT Championship will be on the line this Sunday.
Ethan Page will challenge Trick Williams for the NXT Championship at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. After Page revealed part of the negotiations were that he’d get a title match if he signed, Williams urged General Manager Ava to sign the deal, seeking revenge for Page’s attack. Ava signed the contract, making the title match official for Sunday.
After Page made a surprise appearance last week by jumping Williams, this week’s NXT saw Ava attempt to sign Page, who wanted many extravagant demands for signing with the brand. Page made a point to have his contract signing in the ring, which led to Williams coming out to confront Page.
