Ethan Page Wins NXT Title vs. Trick Williams, Je'Von Evans, Shawn Spears at Heatwave

In stunning fashion, Ethan Page defeated defending champion Trick Williams, Je'Von Evans, Shawn Spears in a Fatal 4-Way match at NXT Heatwave on Sunday to win the NXT Championship.

Williams landed the Trick Shot on both Evans and Page but was pulled out of the ring by Spears, only to watch a limp Paige fall backward on top of Evans and win the match via a passed-out pin.

Sunday marked the intertwining of multiple rivalries into one major title match, and it also represented Williams' toughest challenge since winning the NXT Championship in April.

Page made his WWE debut on the May 28 episode of NXT by attacking Williams, and he was granted an NXT title match at the Battleground premium live event one week later by NXT general manager Ava.

Trick beat Page to retain the championship, but "All Ego" made it clear that his pursuit of the NXT title was far from over.

At around that same time, Evans was building a friendship with Williams and fighting alongside him, including beating Gallus' Joe and Mark Coffey in a tag team match.

Evans was also engaged in a rivalry with Spears, who beat him in a singles match on the June 11 edition of NXT TV.

One week later, Evans bounced back by winning a battle royal to become the No. 1 contender for the NXT Championship, although Page had a legitimate gripe since he was never actually eliminated.

That led to a singles match between Evans and Page later in the night, and Page was victorious.

The following week, Williams and Spears faced each other one-on-one, and the match devolved into chaos due to the presence of Brooks Jensen. After Jensen accidentally hit Trick in the head with a piece of the announce table, Spears took advantage and pinned him to win the non-title match.

With Williams, Evans, Page and Spears all trading wins over the course of multiple weeks, the decision was made by Ava to have Trick put the title on the line in a Fatal 4-Way at Heatwave.

The odds were stacked against Williams on Sunday, and Page took advantage by winning the match and becoming NXT champion for the first time in his career.
