Williams captured the gold.

There is a new WWE United States Champion on Friday Night SmackDown, and it is Trick Williams. Williams bested Sami Zayn to capture the gold on night two of WrestleMania 42.

On the lead-up to the match, Williams shared that his mother would be in attendance after undergoing a knee replacement surgery. He stated that she was rehabbing hard to ensure she could be in attendance.

While on the WrestleMania 42 Sunday post-show, Williams spoke about what it meant to have his mother in attendance.

“Man, a thug almost shed a tear today, because my mama was out there. My mama, she had a knee replacement about a month ago, and I watched her train. I call her every single day, I watched her train. She said, ‘Baby, there’s no way I’m missing your first WrestleMania.’ So she was right out there. Like I said, thank you mama. I love you.”

The U.S. Title is the first championship of Trick Williams’ run on the main roster.
