[WATCH] Dangerous botch involving two former WWE champions during NXT Spring Breakin'

There was a dangerous incident during the main event of Week One of WWE NXT Spring Breakin' 2024.

In a highly anticipated bout, Ilja Dragunov was set to defend his NXT Championship against Trick Williams, with the stipulation that if Trick were to lose, he would have to leave NXT.

The match was a highly intense encounter, showcasing why both these stars were on top of the food chain in the white and gold brand. However, there was one dangerous incident during the bout that momentarily worried fans. At one point, both Trick and Ilja found themselves on the top rope. Ilja attempted a sunset flip, but it somehow got botched, resulting in Whoop That Trick landing on top of The Mad Dragon in what seemed to be a nasty landing.
