Je'Von Evans discusses his relationship with Trick Williams.
At NXT Heatwave, Je'Von Evans, Ethan Page, and Shawn Spears will all challenge Trick Williams for the NXT Championship in a fatal four way bout. As of late, Williams has seemingly taken Evans under his wing, even teaming with him on a couple of occasions.
While speaking to the Under The Ring podcast for a new interview, Evans talked about how Williams knew who he was during his tryout.
“Well yeah, that’s my brother. For my tryout, I went to him and shook his hand, I thought he didn’t know who I was. He was like, ‘I know who you are bro, just do you. Turn up.’ Ever since then, it’s honestly been that we’re close. I ask him for advice, he asks me for advice. His reign has been good to me, he’s been fighting for that title. Once he won it, everyone was happy in the back. I gave him a hug and I was like, ‘Hey, it’s your time.’ He said, ‘No, it’s your time or your time about to come.’ I said, ‘It’s not about me right now, I want you to enjoy this because once I get it..’ [laughs]”
