In an interview with the Battleground podcast Williams spoke about the possibility of going to the main roster in WWE while still holding the gold.
Williams said : “Man, that’d be beautiful. I mean, nothing would change. I mean, I just got a book a flight from Thursday night to Friday, if it’s on SmackDown, that’s the only thing that’d be different, but man, I wear this gold with pride, man. Contrary to belief, Twitter’s also saying that, this is just a vanity project for Trick Williams and he doesn’t really care about the brand. TNA is just a side quest. No, man, I’m proud to be the TNA champion. Look at the history that’s been done there. You know what I mean? I’m proud to say that after everything, the AJ Styles, the Samoa Joes, the Mooses, you know what I mean? The Bubba Ray Dudleys, you know. Kurt Angle. When you look at all these greats, I’m able to say that Trick Williams is the best of them all. That’s a big deal. No, I really do, I take pride in that, man. So when people, try to downplay my investment or, you know, how much I love the brand, I mean, I really do bleed Trick-NA.“
