What drove the wedge between the two were singles titles&#8217; aspirations clashing, and it led to Hayes turning on his partner at <em><strong>NXT Vengeance Day<\/strong><\/em>. Since then, Williams has been nursing the injuries sustained but he is back with vengeance on his mind.<\/p>\n<p>Having paid the favor back by costing Hayes his major opportunity, the pair find themselves in a highly volatile situation. Williams has been announced to return on the March 12 <em>NXT<\/em>, and it can be expected that he will have some words for Hayes.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Trick Williams returns to NXT to exact payback on Carmelo Hayes: NXT Roadblock 2024 highlights\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8jdnsePnD7Y?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3>Oba Femi Defends NXT North American Championship<\/h3>\n<p>NXT North American Champion <strong>Oba Femi<\/strong> has been defending the title and conquering any and all challengers with pure power.

This match will provide a clash of styles but an overwhelming shared drive and motivation to walk away with the gold.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Obaofwwe?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@Obaofwwe<\/a> defends his North American Championship against <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BrooksJensenWWE?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@BrooksJensenWWE<\/a> TOMORROW on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/WWENXT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#WWENXT<\/a>! <\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udcfa 8\/7c on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/USANetwork?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@USANetwork<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3ykUwd6sdW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/3ykUwd6sdW<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; WWE NXT (@WWENXT) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWENXT\/status\/1767264225422885237?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">March 11, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Shawn Spears Goes Up Against Ridge Holland<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Shawn Spears<\/strong> made his return to <em>NXT<\/em> (and <em>WWE<\/em>, in general) on the February 27 edition of <em>NXT<\/em>.
