WWE Superstar Trick Williams appears to be on the path to a promising future following his success in recent months.
The former NXT North American Champion has risen as one of WWE's most popular stars. This was evident during last week's episode of WWE SmackDown, where Williams made his debut appearance to a tremendous reception from the audience. He intervened to protect his best friend Carmelo Hayes from an attack by Austin Theory and Grayson Waller.
Recent reports indicated that backstage officials were highly impressed with Trick Williams' popularity. According to Haus of Wrestling, the WWE SmackDown creative team was 'blown away' by the overwhelming reaction he received. There is even speculation that they view Williams as a potential Wrestlemania main-eventer down the line. The same report disclosed that another prominent star spoke highly of Williams, praising his exceptional attitude and skill set.
It will be interesting to see what WWE has planned for the talented star moving forward.
