WWE Superstars Grayson Waller and Austin Theory have given their predictions for the upcoming NXT Championship match between Trick Williams and Ilja Dragunov.

Next week at NXT Spring Breakin, Ilja Dragunov will defend his NXT Championship against Trick Williams in a highly anticipated bout. The stipulation adds even more intrigue, as if Ilja retains the title, Trick Williams will be forced to leave NXT.

Ahead of the bout, the new WWE Tag Team Champions Grayson Waller and Austin Theory shared their thoughts on the matchup. Despite typically being in agreement, this time they had differing opinions. Theory predicted Trick to become the new NXT Champion, while Waller sided with the current titleholder.

"It’s very clear to A-Town Down Under who is winning the NXT Championship match at Spring Breakin #NXTSpringBreakin," Waller wrote.

Austin Theory sent a message after WWE SmackDown

During the latest episode of SmackDown, the Street Profits emerged victorious in a fatal four-way tag team match, earning themselves the opportunity to challenge for the WWE Tag Team Championships.

Following the show, Austin Theory exuded confidence, asserting that while the Street Profits may have become the number one contenders, nothing will change. He boldly declared that he and Grayson Waller will remain champions for as long as they desire.

"Sure, sure, they got a number-one contender match, sure. But guess what's gonna happen. That and this, it's not gonna change. We're the champs and we're forever the champs. And the time that we put away these tag team championships is when we feel like it, when we wanna put them on the shelf, on a plaque in our house," Austin Theory said.
