Trick Williams reveals Lil Yachty wants to have a match in WWE. In the build to WrestleMania 42, Williams brought Lil Yachty to accompany him on television following Sami Zayn’s United States Title victory against Carmelo Hayes in March.
Unlike some other celebrity involvements at WrestleMania, such as Pat McAfee and Jelly Roll, there hasn’t been much backlash regarding Yachty’s involvement in storylines. It’s likely because he’s not the main focal point in Trick’s storylines.
Following WrestleMania, Lil Yachty announced that he’s here to stay. Now his friend Trick Williams has revealed that the rapper wants to get into the ring and have a match.

“This what he told me, he says, ‘Trick, I can’t believe they’re letting me do WrestleMania with you. I don’t want to take no shortcuts, I don’t want to go straight to the top. I want to go to Delaware, I want to go to Baton Rouge, I want to be one of the boys. I love this business, I’ve been watching this for years.’
“He wants to be one of the boys. Like we talk sometimes 2 o’clock in the morning. Lash has had enough, she has had enough (laughs). (H/t Wrestletalk)

Yachty has been a lifelong wrestling fan. Almost a decade ago, there was an interview where he expressed his wish to join WWE in the future. Looks like he’s finally gotten that chance.
