Carmelo Hayes and Trick Williams shared a close friendship in NXT, but it took a turn when Williams betrayed him at NXT Vengeance Day.
The tension escalated, leading to a showdown at NXT Stand & Deliver, where Williams emerged victorious. This pattern repeated on last week’s NXT. Williams now shares his thoughts on Hayes’ move to SmackDown.
Friends Turned Into Enemies
On this week’s NXT, Trick Williams clinched the NXT Championship, prompting a response from his former friend, Carmelo Hayes.
During the 2024 WWE Draft’s opening night, Carmelo Hayes secured a spot on SmackDown, marking a significant shift in the roster. In an exclusive interview, Trick Williams expressed his excitement about Hayes’ move, emphasizing his talent and showing support.
“Yo, I’m super hyped, super excited for Carmelo Hayes. He is a phenomenal talent. As everybody knows, he is him. However, I do think it’s extremely bold to call out Cody Rhodes your first day on the job, but hey, do what the people told you to do, whoop that trick.”
Even Triple H, impressed by Hayes’ performance, offered praise. As Hayes gears up for his journey on Friday Night SmackDown, fans eagerly anticipate his success, hoping he thrives in his new environment.
