Trick Williams is the new WWE United States Champion.
Williams defeated Sami Zayn at WrestleMania 42 Sunday (Night Two), to become the new champion.
Below is an excerpt from Mike Tedesco’s WrestleMania 42 Night Two recap of how the title change went down.
Zayn stomps away at Williams before the referee backs him up. Zayn continues to stomp him, so the referee forces him back. Lil Yachty checks on Williams, so Zayn sneaks up from behind and attacks the rapper. Zayn grabs Yachty and throws him headfirst into the barricade. Zayn gets on the apron and drives Williams headfirst into the ring post. Zayn smashes his head into the ring post twice before hitting a brainbuster on the apron! Zayn stalls a bit and wants a countout, but Williams starts to stir. Zayn gets out of the ring and hits him with a Helluva Kick against the barricade. Zayn gets back in the ring and wants the countout. 1… 2… 3… 4… 5… 6… 7… 8… 9… Williams barely beats the count. Zayn angrily stomps away at Williams. The referee holds Zayn back and checks on Williams. Zayn sizes Williams up for a Helluva Kick, but Lil Yachty snaps him off the top rope. Williams hits a Trick Kick for a near fall!
Zayn avoids a second Trick Kick and hits an exploder into the corner. Zayn backs up and charges for a Helluva Kick, but Williams intercepts him with a Trick Shot for the win!
