Trick Williams’ Big Dreams: From ‘Whoop That Trick’ to ‘Hall of Fame Showdowns

When Trick Williams steps into the ring at WWE NXT Deadline, he’s not just defending the NXT Championship—he’s defending his rise, his swagger, and his claim as one of the brightest stars in the WWE universe. But while his short-term focus is laser-sharp on keeping that gold draped across his shoulder, Trick’s gaze is already peeking over the horizon, where a few “dream match” mountains are waiting to be climbed.

In a wrestling world full of “big meaty men slapping meat” and high-flyers defying gravity, Williams is carving his own path with charisma, athleticism, and a dash of Mama, I made it! energy. But what makes his ambition so captivating isn’t just his ability to talk the talk—it’s his fearless desire to back it up against the best of the best. And when you hear who’s on his dream-match wish list, you’ll realize Williams isn’t just thinking about his next fight; he’s thinking about his legacy.

A Future with Flair (Literally)

First on Trick’s list is none other than WWE Hall of Famer Edge, a man whose “Rated-R” moniker still sends chills down spines. Trick envisions a showdown that’s as much a clash of eras as it is a test of his wrestling mettle. Why Edge? Because, like Trick, Edge is a storyteller—a master at pulling the audience into his narrative, whether he’s the hero or the villain.

For Trick, stepping into the ring with Edge wouldn’t just be about proving he can hang with one of the greatest to ever do it. It’s about taking a page from Edge’s playbook, learning how to turn the crowd’s emotions on a dime, and cementing himself as a performer who transcends just the NXT audience.

Imagine it: Williams vs. Edge, a battle of spears, showmanship, and possibly some very confused crowd chants (because, let’s be real, Edge is a legend, but Trick’s got the juice). The buildup alone would be worth the price of admission.

Seth Rollins and the Swagger-Off

Second on Williams’ dream match list is the current World Heavyweight Champion, Seth “Freakin’” Rollins—and honestly, it’s a perfect match. Rollins is the epitome of reinvention, going from The Architect to The Visionary to a drip god with a cackle that could haunt a graveyard. Trick Williams? He’s no stranger to reinvention either, having risen from Carmelo Hayes’ sidekick to a champion in his own right.

This isn’t just a fight—it’s a fashion show, a charisma collision, and a wrestling clinic rolled into one. Both men have a way of electrifying the audience with their presence before they even throw a punch. In this dream match, the wrestling ring becomes a stage, and the match itself? A symphony of swagger.

And let’s not forget the promos. Trick’s one-liners versus Seth’s verbal sorcery could sell out an arena faster than you can say, “Burn it down!” It’s not just about titles; it’s about proving who truly runs the wrestling runway.

Montez Ford: A Battle of Future Kings

Finally, Trick’s looking at the sky—and no, it’s not just for the fireworks. He’s eyeing a match with Montez Ford, one-half of the Street Profits and one of the most athletically gifted performers in WWE today. Ford is a high-flying, crowd-pleasing, boundary-pushing superstar who’s been pegged as a future world champion more times than we can count. Trick Williams? He’s in the same conversation.

A Williams vs. Ford match isn’t just a clash; it’s a celebration of the new generation of Black excellence in professional wrestling. Both men are redefining what it means to be a superstar, not just with their in-ring skills but with their undeniable cultural impact.

This match would be fast, furious, and full of moments that fans would replay for years. Picture Ford’s sky-high frog splash countered by Trick’s knockout strikes—it’s the kind of match that could headline WrestleMania.

Why Trick’s Dreams Are Everyone’s Gain

What makes Trick Williams’ dream matches so intriguing isn’t just who he wants to face; it’s why. Trick isn’t looking to pad his resume with easy wins or nostalgic cameos. He wants to test himself against the very best, to step into the ring with legends and contemporaries who can push him to his limits.

For fans, this isn’t just about seeing great matches—it’s about witnessing the evolution of a superstar who’s determined to be the best version of himself. Every time Trick steps into the ring, he’s not just fighting for a win; he’s fighting for respect, for legacy, and for the chance to inspire the next kid who sees him and thinks, “That could be me.”

The Road Ahead

But first, there’s Deadline. Trick Williams knows that before he can dream of spear showdowns with Edge, or strut-offs with Rollins, or sky battles with Ford, he’s got to handle business in the here and now. The NXT Championship is more than just a title; it’s a symbol of everything Trick has fought for and everything he wants to become.

In wrestling, as in life, it’s not just about the destination—it’s about the journey. And Trick Williams’ journey is shaping up to be one of the most exciting stories in WWE today. From defending his title at Deadline to potentially making history with dream matches, Trick isn’t just here to “Whoop That Trick.” He’s here to prove that he is that trick.

And if you’re not on board yet? Well, you better catch up, because Trick Williams is going places—and he’s taking the WWE universe with him.
