The Supernova Sessions With Special Guest: Trick Williams 

Noam Dar: Hello, hello, hello, hello. Here me now. Welcome to another edition of Supernova Sessions: Live In The USA. The oxford dictionary defines the word Trick as a skillful act on a skimp, intended to deceive or outwit someone. With that being said, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome tonight’s guest.

Lash Legend: A very, very special guest. Just letting you know.

Noam Dar: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome a very special guest, your NXT Champion, Trick Williams. Trick, welcome, take a seat. Trick, things are going pretty wonderful for you. It must be nice to be Trick Williams.

Trick Williams: Talk your talk, dog.

Noam Dar: But on that point, they even made you a very special video tonight, to show your historic rise. Let’s watch the footage. Let’s talk about it, of course we’re going to talk about it. That’s the whole point, we’re literally on a talk show.

Trick Williams: Or you laughing too hard, aren’t you? Look, man, I’m not here for the games, I’m here for one reason and one reason only. I want to see what’s in that envelope. So, ta-ta, let’s go.

Trick Williams: What’s wrong with you, dog? You don’t speak good English? You on dog food or something? Do I need to smack you back to the motherland? Woah, woah, woah, that there was a Trick question. Now, Noam, if you wanted a title match, all you had to do was ask, dog. I got no problem smacking the bun right off your head, all you got to do is say the word.

Noam Dar: You got jokes, but you’re still not accepting the reality.

Trick Williams: Noam, I’m not here to play games, dog. You’re playing games, Trick Willy ain’t with that. Lash, you want to act like we’re on the Maury Show? Which, by the way, Trick Willy ain’t the daddy.

Noam Dar: Lash, what’s he talking about?

Trick Williams: Woah, woah, woah. Lash, do you want to tell him or do you want me to tell him?

Jakara Jackson: Hold up, tell us what, Lash?

Lash Legend: Babe, I mean, Trick, listen, wait a minute, this is not the time.

Trick Williams: Woah, woah, woah, this is the time. Check it out, man, you got nothing to be worried about. It’s about me and you right now. Tell the people that you call me, Trick Willy Wonka.
