Just an hour before WWE NXT vs. TNA ShowDown went live, Trick Williams added a little spice to the locker room—and reminded everyone whoâ€s calling the shots.
In a video posted by WWE, Trick was handing out custom NXT jerseys to his teammates ahead of the big Survivor Series-style clash. When he got to NXT Champion Ricky Saints, he couldnâ€t help but throw in a jab.
“I know they ran out of xtra mediums, so I got you a youth large and if you look closely, I got you that captain ‘câ€. Itâ€s lower case but itâ€s all good, you know what Iâ€m saying? Co-captains!â€
The lowercase “c†wasnâ€t a mistake—it was Trickâ€s way of reminding Saints that this is a joint operation. Despite Ricky wearing the gold, Trick made it clear that leadership duties are shared tonight. The playful shade sets the tone ahead of their eight-man war against TNAâ€s top stars, with Joe Hendry serving as special guest referee.
The card also features:
- Team Jacy Jayne vs. Team Kelani Jordan with Jordynne Grace officiating
- Ethan Page defending the North American Title vs. Mustafa Ali
- DarkState vs. The Hardys in a tag title unification match
WWE NXT airs live October 7 at 8 PM ET on The CW Network, with global access on Netflix.  Ringside News will be providing live play-by-play coverage of tonightâ€s show over in our WWE NXT coverage hub.
