Trick Williams may have walked out of WWE NXT with the TNA World Title still around his waist, but he swears he had nothing to do with the interference that helped him retain it.
After AJ Francis and KC Navarronow going by First Classambushed Mike Santana during the June 3 main event, fans instantly called foul. But Trick is now setting the record straight during his appearance on the Battleground Podcast, and he insists the assist was a total surprise.
According to Trick, he had no clue AJ Francis or Navarro would get involved. And when the hosts pressed him on whether it undermined his win, Trick flipped the narrative.
The champ then fired back at critics calling him a cheater, claiming its not about dirty tacticsits about being smart enough to stay one step ahead.
Whether Trick truly didnt know First Class was coming to his rescue or hes just playing it cool, one things for surehes not apologizing for how things went down. And with Elijah gunning for him at TNA Against All Odds, the target on his back just got bigger.
