Trick Williams Explains the Gingerbread Diss Track, Claims He Has ‘Nothing Against Gingers’

During a recent interview with the Battleground Podcast, WWE United States Champion Trick Williams discussed working with hip-hop star Lil Yachty and their gingerbread diss track. According to Williams, he has no personal ill will against gingers.

Trick Williams said on working with Lil Yachty (via Fightful), “It was dope. Working with yachty, he loves the business. Any time somebody loves the business like that, it gets me fired up. We sit and brainstorm for hours on how we’re going to do this and that.” He continued, “No ego involved. We’re going to put out the best work possible, and we’re going to put out diss tracks and different things.”

Williams also addressed the gingerbread diss track, claiming he doesn’t have anything against “gingers,” despite the constant insults directed at former United States Champion Sami Zayn. He added, “The gingerbread diss track, it was a throwaway line that became something much bigger than I ever anticipated being. Hopefully, I didn’t lose too much of my ginger audience. I have nothing against gingers. It was just to poke fun at Sami Zayn. I had to. He deserved it.”

At WWE Backlash Tampa 2026, Trick Williams successfully retained the US Title against Sami Zayn in a rematch from WrestleMania 42.
