    Trick Williams Reflects On Emotional NXT Title Win

    Winning the NXT Championship was a very emotional moment for Trick Williams.

    The WWE star recently had an interview with Chris Van Vliet’s Insight podcast . He discussed things such as Shawn Michaels comparing him to Scott Hall, NXT moving to CW , a potential main roster call up and more.

    When asked about his NXT title win earlier this year, Williams first gave a shout-out to Ijla Dragunov for taking his career to the next level:

    “Unreal. 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.”

    It Was Unreal: Trick Williams

    Trick Williams won the NXT Championship at the Spring Breakin’ event in April this year. The 30-year-old had put his NXT career on the line and with an outpouring support from the fans, he was finally able to defeat Dragunov to win the title.

    According to the young star, the whole moment was unreal, and the emotion he felt during the time will be very hard to replicate in his life:

    “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, man, 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. Man, that’s why I wanted to do this.”

    Though Williams’ reign didn’t last very long. He dropped the title to Ethan Page at the Heatwave event in July, after only 74 days. Trick will get a shot at redemption when he challenges Page for the title at tonight’s CW premiere episode of WWE’s third brand.
