Lil Yachty Says He Could Walk Away From Music If WWE Paychecks Match His Ambition
In a Complex interview, Lil Yachty — who appears as an on-screen ally/manager to United States Champion Trick Williams — said he would consider leaving music if he can climb WWE’s ranks and earn the pay he wants.
Lil Yachty told Complex he would consider stepping away from his music career if his run in WWE develops in the right way. The two-time Grammy-nominated artist and producer said that if he climbs WWE’s ranks and receives the pay he wants, he could prioritize wrestling over music.
Yachty has been visible on WWE television as an ally and manager to United States Champion Trick Williams. In the interview he framed that role as part of a broader interest in pursuing wrestling full time if the professional and financial outcomes align with his goals.
The comments came during the Complex conversation and did not include any announcement of formal changes to his WWE role or music plans.
We will monitor further updates should Yachty or WWE announce developments related to his role or future plans.
