Lil Yachty Confirms He's Under Contract With WWE, Would Love To Wrestle Trick Williams - Wrestling Inc.
Lil Yachty says he is under contract and could face Trick Williams after helping Williams regain the United States title in a five-minute match.
- On September 6, 2026, rapper Lil Yachty made his official in-ring debut at WWE Sunday Night's Main Event, surviving five minutes against Baron Corbin to secure Trick Williams a United States Championship title shot.
- Yachty has been a WWE regular since signing a contract around WrestleMania 42, when executive Bruce Prichard approached him with an offer to manage Williams and support his championship ambitions.
- Following the September 6 match, Yachty described his physical state as feeling "like s--t," adding, "I feel like someone hit me with a bag of bricks," while reporting intense soreness in his back, shins, and knees.
- Taking a clothesline from Corbin was physically excruciating for Yachty, who admitted the experience left him momentarily questioning if he could finish the bout.
- While Yachty remains under contract, WWE fans continue to speculate whether his alliance with Williams will eventually lead to internal conflict as the artist prioritizes wrestling alongside his music career.
