Simply put, this was an epic match with great spots throughout until Femi hit Evans with a Fall From Grace for the victory.

Saturday's bout has essentially been in the works ever since the beginning of the year when Femi defeated Williams and Eddy Thorpe to become NXT champion for the first time at New Year's Evil.

After dropping the title to The Ruler, Trick made it his stated goal to win the gold back. He first had to prevail in his feud with Thorpe, though, and he did precisely that by beating him in an NXT Underground match last month.

Throughout his rivalry with Thorpe, Williams was dismissive of Evans when he attempted to offer advice or a helping hand, which resulted in bad blood being built up between them as well.

Williams attempted to call out Femi for an NXT title match, but they became targets for the DarkState stable. Amid the chaos, Evans took out Femi, which led to retaliation from Femi during Evans' Heritage Cup Championship match against Lexis King.

With Femi, Williams and Evans all being interconnected, NXT general manager Ava decided to book them in a Triple Threat match for the NXT Championship at Stand & Deliver.

That made them even more susceptible to DarkState, though, and all three of them were on the receiving end of a four-on-three attack.

As a result, Femi, Williams and Evans were booked in a six-man tag team match against three members of DarkState on the April edition of NXT TV.

Not surprisingly, things devolved into chaos as Williams and Femi ended up brawling with each other, leaving Evans to fend for himself in an eventual loss to Dion Lennox, Cutler James and Saquon Shugars.

Tensions between Femi, Williams and Evans were at an all-time high entering Stand & Deliver, and Oba thrived in the chaos by winning the Triple Threat and retaining his title.
