Trick Williams Has Been Chosen By WWE Fans, Says Hall Of Famer

A WWE Hall of Famer recently discussed Trick Williams’ popularity in the company.

Since January 2, Williams has been a member of the SmackDown roster and has competed in several matches since, remaining undefeated in singles action.

The 31-year-old recently qualified for the men’s Elimination Chamber match by winning a 3-way match against Carmelo Hayes and Damian Priest.

The other five superstars who won their respective matches are Randy Orton, LA Knight, Je’Von Evans, Cody Rhodes, and Logan Paul.

While Trick debuted as a heel from NXT, his popularity has soared among the live audience and viewers worldwide, prompting Mark Henry to give him the props.

Mark Henry In Awe Of Trick Williams

Mark Henry spoke on the Busted Open podcast, where he discussed the pop Williams received during the opening segment of WWE SmackDown on February 27.

The World’s Strongest Man compared called William’s a people’s man, comparing him to the likes of ‘Nature Boy’ Ric Flair and ‘The Heartbreak Kid’ Shawn Michaels.

There was not a louder reaction on the entire show than that moment when Trick Williams came out to the ring. Nobody got a reaction like Trick Williams. You could not hear, it was like a jet engine was blaring.

That doesn’t make Trick Williams a bad guy. It doesn’t make Trick Williams a good guy. It makes Trick Williams as big as the business. Not many people get that. That comes from being chosen in pro-wrestling.

It ain’t nothing that the promoters could do, when you get over and the crowd chooses, ‘That’s our guy, I like him. He moved me, I like the way you talk that talk. I like the way you walk that walk.

Ric Flair was that guy, Shawn Michaels, you loved him, you hated him, you were confused, you didn’t know, but you wanted to see him, and you wanted to cheer him. Trick Williams is in rarified air right now, y’all, and you chose that. [H/T: WrestleTalk.com]
