WWE NXT Title Match Ends in Controversy with Unfinished Count

Trick Williams faced off against Eddy Thorpe for the WWE NXT title, but their match was marred by controversy. After a intense fight, both men were down on the mat with Williams attempting to secure the win. However, two different referees counted for two separate outcomes, leaving the outcome of the match uncertain.

Williams landed a Rock Bottom on Thorpe and attempted to take control, but Thorpe kicked out. The champion then got his opponent up and slammed him to the ground, but Thorpe countered with a move that took down the referee. A new official entered the ring and Williams tried to roll up Thorpe, who again kicked out.

The match continued, with Williams hitting a Trick Shot after setting Thorpe up in the corner. The two referees counted for three, but the outcome was disputed as Williams’ shoulders were on the mat and Thorpe had his arm across him. General Manager Ava stepped in to discuss the result with the referees as the show went off the air.
