Trick Williams Addresses a Main Roster Call-Up, His Desired Dream Matchups

– During an interview with Insight with Chris Van Vliet, WWE NXT Superstar and former NXT Champion Trick Williams discussed his career, his thoughts on a main roster call-up, potential dream matches for later on, and more. Below are some highlights provided to us by Insight:

Trick Williams on winning the NXT Championship: “Unreal. First things first shout out to Ilja Dragunov, who I would say really took my career to the next level, especially at that time, all three to four of our matches showed people that I had that next level in me. The day I did take the title from Ilja Dragunov, it was a beautiful moment. I’m not sure if you saw but the whole arena was shaking from the ‘Whoop That Trick’ chants, people stomping, people screaming, people crying. It was unreal and the emotion that I felt in that ring at that time, it’s gonna be hard to duplicate because it was just 100% everybody was behind, and that’s a special moment. That’s why I wanted to do this.”

His thoughts on a main roster call-up: “I think about it all the time, but I’m happy where my feet are. I mean, NXT is on fire right now, arguably one of the better times NXT has ever seen. So with that, I’m proud to be here. I’m proud to be the face of NXT. Why are we going to CW? Why we got the biggest TV deal NXT has ever gotten? Why are we doing this traveling and stuff now? I’m part of it, and it feels good to say hey, we are part of something special here.”

On how Booker T has helped him: “He’s another guy who’s been just so helpful to me. Yeah we see the ad-libs and everything he does with the entrance, but behind the scenes, we break down film. He says, ‘See that step right there? Get rid of that.’ We start talking about skill and why I’m getting better, it’s people like Booker T, people like Shawn Michaels, people like Matt Bloom and of course Terry Taylor, who I train with every day. But these guys definitely.”

His thoughts on future dream matches: “Roman Reigns, he’s the top guy in the business right now. I mean, shout out to Cody Rhodes, who is amazing. I’m glad that he finished and started his new story. But Roman, he’s the guy who’s been the cornerstone of the business for a while now. So if you don’t want to match with him, then you don’t really want to be here.”

Trick Williams challenges for the NXT Championship once again later tonight for WWE NXT’s debut on The CW. He faces reigning champion Ethan Page, with CM Punk as the special guest referee. Tonight’s show will be broadcast live starting at 8:00 pm EST. The show is being held at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois.
