Trick Williams shared a wholesome moment with a young fan this week after a viral video showed a baby enthusiastically reacting to his entrance on television.
The clip was posted on X by user James Barrier, who tagged WWE, Triple H, and Williams in the caption: “@TripleH @_trickwilliams @WWE my grandson favorite superstar. Haha.” The video featured his grandson excitedly watching Williams on screen, clearly locked in as the SmackDown star made his appearance.
Williams noticed the post and responded with a simple but fitting reply: “Lil fella knows ball ???.”
The comment quickly gained traction, with fans praising the interaction and celebrating the connection between the performer and the audience. In a business built on larger-than-life reactions, this one came in pint-sized form — and still stole the show.
Trick Williams’ Growing Impact Since WWE Main Roster Call-Up
Trick Williams officially joined the SmackDown roster on January 2, 2026. Since then, he has embraced the nickname “The Anointed One” and positioned himself as a rising force.
On the February 6 episode of SmackDown, he confronted Undisputed WWE Champion Drew McIntyre, signaling his intentions of joining the title picture. He is also set for a rematch against Rey Fenix on Feb. 13.
Before his main roster call-up, Trick Williams built an impressive resume. He is a two-time NXT Champion, a former NXT North American Champion, the 2023 Men’s Iron Survivor Challenge winner, and, notably, became the first WWE-contracted talent to win a championship in TNA during his 2025 stint.
Moments like this viral exchange show that Williams’ reach extends beyond championship pursuits. Whether he’s chasing gold or winning over the next generation, it appears Trick is already over — and not just with the “Trick Shot” crowd.
