Trick Williams Embraces Inter-Promotional Matches

Williams, now in his second reign as NXT World Champion after defeating Ethan Page, spoke about the thrill of welcoming new opponents:

“It’s cool. All opponents are welcome. I’m not threatened by anybody who wants the opportunity [to] take a chance at this title. It makes for a better show. If it’s what the people want to see, then let’s make it happen.”

This statement reflects the growing synergy between WWE and TNA in 2024, where talents from both promotions have made cross-brand appearances, offering fans a unique mix of matches and storylines.

NXT and TNA Partnership

In 2024, WWE NXT and TNA Wrestling have collaborated extensively. Stars like Jordynne Grace, Joe Hendry, and Rosemary have appeared on NXT, while Wendy Choo, Sol Ruca, and others have competed on TNA’s Impact! programming. These cross-promotional efforts have provided both brands with new opportunities to captivate their audiences.

Fans are eager to see how Williams handles the powerful challenger while keeping his eyes on potential inter-promotional clashes.

What’s Next for Trick Williams?

With WWE’s continued partnership with TNA, fans are speculating about possible opponents for Williams, including top TNA stars like Jordynne Grace and The Rascalz. As the NXT World Champion embraces his role as a fighting champion, the possibility of cross-promotional matches could make 2024 a defining year for his career.
