Williams had a lot to lose at tonight's NXT Spring Breakin' event. If he had failed to defeat Dragunov tonight, he would have been forced to leave NXT. Williams had even received a phone call from his mother before the contest. Trick battled Dragunov in an instant classic for the NXT Championship and emerged with a clean win.
The 12-minute bout ended with Williams hitting a Trick Shot on Dragunov to pick up the big win and the NXT Championship as well. Dragunov handed over the NXT title to Williams following his victory in a heartfelt gesture.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
