WWE NXT star Lash Legend isn’t just stepping up in the ring—she’s also pulling back the curtain on her personal life with NXT Champion Trick Williams.

During an emotional moment during Busted Open After Dark with Bully Ray, Lash opened up about their relationship, revealing how long they’ve been together, how they support each other, and how deeply she respects his rise to the top. When Bully Ray brought up Trick Williams and asked about their real-life dynamic, Lash didn’t hold back:

“My man, my man, my man. Yes, I’m very familiar with Tricky Willie.”

She then praised his consistency and growth as a performer, making it clear that his recent success isn’t by accident.

“I love it. He already had the charisma—that’s just who he is—but you can feel something different now. Like, OK… let me find out! I do feel like he’s definitely shown bits and pieces of it before, but now he’s feeling it consistently. As he should—he’s literally been the face of NXT for over a year. Respectfully. We call him the anointed one. This is meant for him.”

When asked how long they’ve been together, Lash revealed it’s been over two years—and that their relationship started in the most casual way.

“Definitely over two years. Crazy enough, he never actually asked. One day he was just at my house… and never left.”

She went on to describe their connection as a blessing, not a burden, especially with both of them being in WWE.

“It doesn’t feel like a burden. It feels like a blessing. He helps me in so many ways, and I hope I help him too. Even if it’s an off day—we’re there. I’ll book my own flight for a PLE just to be backstage for him, and he does the same. We just show up for each other.”

“And we always break down matches together. Even if I squash someone in one-two-three, we’re watching it back and going over what I can do better.”

Lash Legend and Trick Williams may be rising stars on-screen, but behind the curtain, they’re clearly grounded in something real. From analyzing matches together to showing up backstage for one another without being asked, their partnership is locked in—and Lash made it clear that Trick’s glow-up is something she saw coming a long time ago.
