WWE has ramped up its push for the Sunday Night’s Main Event. The special’s new official poster puts Trick Williams and Lil Yachty front and center in the promotional artwork.
The show is set for September 6 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. That date was originally slotted for Money in the Bank in New Orleans, but WWE reshuffled the calendar in June, pushing the premium live event to October 10 and dropping Sunday Night’s Main Event into the slot.
Williams and Yachty taking center stage in the promotional push underscores a pairing that has become a staple of WWE programming since the Road to WrestleMania 42. Yachty was in Trick’s corner when he captured the United States Championship from Sami Zayn and has continued appearing alongside him in the months since.
The partnership has also pulled Yachty into the physical side of storylines. At Night of Champions, the rapper attacked Ricky Saints with a kendo stick and even hit a People’s Elbow. Weeks later, he presented Trick with a custom United States Championship and trained with him at the WWE Performance Center.
The dynamic shifted at SummerSlam, though. Trick dropped the United States Championship to Baron Corbin on August 2 in Minneapolis, despite Yachty once again being at ringside and attempting to interfere on his behalf.
As of now, WWE has not announced any matches for the Sunday Night’s Main Event in Atlanta.
