Trick Williams poured his heart out in a heartfelt message following his NXT Championship victory during Week One of the NXT Spring Breakin’ event.
In a high-stakes match against Ilja Dragunov, Williams emerged victorious, securing not just the title but also his place in the white and gold brand.
Reflecting on his hard-fought journey, Williams expressed gratitude for the support he received and vowed to continue fighting to defend his title.
“It means the world to me, man. I’ve been fighting for a long time for this. This is a testament to hard work. I’ve been fighting for this, and I come from fighters. I’ve been fighting my whole life. My mom is fighting right now, she’s in the hospital. My brother’s fighting for a long time, it’s all good. This is bigger than me. It’s not just for me but it’s for everybody. The people who love me, the people who had my back for a long time. They taught me how to fight and I’m gonna keep fighting. I’m never gonna stop fighting. Believe that,” Trick Williams said.
With his NXT Championship win, Williams is poised to become the face of NXT as the brand ushers in a new era. As top stars like Ilja Dragunov and Carmelo Hayes potentially transition to the main roster, Williams is set to lead NXT into the future.

As Williams prepares for new challenges, the terrain of NXT is ripe with potential contenders. Lexis King secured a victory over Baron Corbin, Tony D’Angelo eyes another title shot, and Karrion Kross of The Final Testament could be seeking fresh competition.
With the upcoming WWE Draft on the horizon, more names could join the fray, setting the stage for compelling rivalries in Williams’ championship reign.
