Rumors about a Seth Rollins possible fourth member WWE faction have surfaced recently, but Trick Williams, current TNA World Champion, has firmly denied that he could join forces with the group, pointing to a distinct difference in style between himself and the group leader. During a recent appearance on the Batlleground Podcast, Williams addressed these rumors, making it clear that joining the faction may not be in the cards due to what he described as an excess of style and attitude between himself and Seth Rollins.
Trick Williams Sets the Record Straight on Faction Speculation
Trick Williams, who is currently enjoying a villainous turn as part of his wrestling persona, has attracted attention as a potential addition to Seth Rollins’ faction in WWE. His strong heel character and charisma have led fans and commentators to link him to the group, raising questions about what his involvement would mean for both his career and the dynamics of the faction itself.
When directly asked about the speculation, Williams explained that while he respects the dangerous nature of the faction, he does not see himself fitting in alongside Rollins. Williams emphasized the unique confidence and flair that both he and Seth bring to their roles, making a case for why putting them together may not make sense for WWE’s creative direction.
“Hey, look man that’s a dangerous faction right there but I’ll be honest with you I think there’s too much swag for Trick Williams and Seth Rollins to be in the same room, same time, same place. I mean, he wears his leather and heels just like I wear my leather and heels, I don’t know man, it’s going to feel like two pimps at it so, I don’t know. If that’s what WWE needs or if that’s what they want man, I don’t know we might need to keep us on different shows you know spread the swag around”

According to Williams, both he and Rollins have cultivated such strong personas that putting them on the same team could be less effective than keeping them apart on different brands, thereby allowing the company to “spread the swag” and create more balanced programming.
The Debate Over Style and Superstars
During the podcast, commentary from the host echoed Williams’ assertions, noting that if Trick Williams did join the faction, the distinct style each superstar displays might become overwhelming, potentially forcing one or both to tone down their personas. The concern expressed was that fans would inevitably compare the two, leading to internal competition and possibly diluting what makes each wrestler unique.
Williams firmly rejected the idea of changing his presentation if added to the group, maintaining that neither he nor Rollins would be likely to “tone down” their trademark styles.
“Too much swag man he ain’t toning down I ain’t toning down, let’s talk about it”

His comments reflect a larger conversation in professional wrestling about the importance of individuality and branding, both for personal careers and for the success of the company’s roster as a whole.
Perceptions of the Faction’s Power and Influence
The Seth Rollins possible fourth member WWE faction is not merely a subject of speculation—its reputation precedes it across both WWE and TNA. According to Trick Williams, aligning with a faction as “dangerous” as Rollins’ could affect the dynamics within the wrestling world beyond just television storylines.
Jacob Fatu, current United States Champion, added to the discussion by likening Rollins’ stable to an iconic Basketball team, highlighting the level of threat perceived by other superstars and underscoring the unit’s formidable status within the WWE. The intimidating presence of the group has put the entire roster on alert, raising the bar for competition and fueling further discussion among fans and performers alike.
What Lies Ahead for Trick Williams and Seth Rollins?
With Trick Williams’ candid dismissal of the rumors and his insistence on maintaining his individual style, it appears unlikely that he will be joining Seth Rollins’ faction anytime soon. The focus for both men remains on asserting their own personalities within WWE and creating compelling entertainment for fans, rather than blending their personas into a single team.
The ongoing speculation keeps both Trick Williams and Seth Rollins at the forefront of wrestling discourse, setting the stage for potential future clashes or cross-brand narratives. As fan interest continues and WWE looks for ways to keep its programming fresh, the dynamic between these larger-than-life personalities is bound to remain a key storyline to watch.
