WWE NXT Champion Trick Williams appeared on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast, where he discussed various topics, including working with Carmelo Hayes.
Williams said, “I’ll say someone who laid a great platform for me, I can’t go without saying Carmelo Hayes. I learned a lot by being beside, or even back and to the right, of Carmelo Hayes. When he had the main event matches for the PLE’s, for the Tuesday nights, I was able to sit there and learn, build a rapport with the audience … I was able to see what the main event scene felt like without having the pressure first.”
On his feud with Hayes:
“The people started chanting ‘Whoop That Trick’ and things was going good for me. I felt like the love wasn’t reciprocated. So as soon as I got a taste of that, now it turns into, ‘Oh, I got to break out’ … The only way we can be cool is if you in the front and I’m doing the pickup duty? Nah, that ain’t right.”
