Trick Williams Hopes He Inspires People To Take a Chance On Themselves

Trick Williams has risen to the top of NXT, and he hopes that his success inspires people to take a chance on themselves. The NXT Champion spoke with The Masked Man Show, and during the conversation he was asked what he hopes his legacy ends up being.

“If I want my legacy to be told, I want people to know that you have to take a chance on yourself,” Williams said (h/t to Wrestling Inc). “That’s regardless of your background, your skin color, your sport, or if you’ve been on the independents. Even with my wrestling journey, people say, ‘In three years he’s done so much.’ Nah, the truth is it took me 30 years to blow up like you see me today. I’ve been grinding for a very long time.”

He continued, “And along every step of the journey, every single phase, I’ve been okay with taking a chance for myself. This is where it gets you. It might not happen the first time, might not happen the second time, but eventually, if you keep on working, you keep putting the work in, you know you’re true to that grind, you keep banking on yourself, you’re gonna break through those doors.”

Williams will learn who his next opponent is on next week’s episode of NXT with a 25-man battle royal to determine the #1 contender to the NXT Championship.
