Trick Williams joined the main roster on the January 2, 2026, episode of Friday Night SmackDown. He was a part of this year’s Men’s Royal Rumble and also competed in the 2026 Men’s Elimination Chamber match.

Within only a few months on the main roster, he has already caught the attention of various veterans and received praise for his performances on the blue brand.

Natttie Compares Trick Williams To The Rock

WWE legend Nattie recently appeared in an interview with Busted Open Radio, where she praised Trick Williams. She spoke highly of his incredible aura and even compared him to the likes of The Rock, claiming that Trick has the potential to be a “big player” in WWE.

“There’s just something about him, and TJ and I were saying this last night, there’s just something about him that you want to continue to watch him. And I feel like he’s very solid in the ring, like he did a lot of really great work last night, and he worked really hard.

But there’s just a presence about him, and our audience understands and feels — energy doesn’t lie. And he has that energy that’s like, you watch him, and you go, ‘Yeah, he’s not just the guy, that’s a star.’ But I think Trick has the potential to be like a big, big, big player in WWE.

I feel like we’re watching, imagine when you were watching somebody like The Rock, and you saw him kind of like, ‘Oh man,’ when you started to see this connection being made with the audience, and you’re like, ‘Ooh, this guy’s gonna be something,’ and then of course he morphs into The Rock.”

Trick Williams is set to challenge Sami Zayn for the WWE United States Championship at WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.
