Williamson expressed his excitement at rejoining the Ambush saying, “I am very excited to re-sign for the St. Louis Ambush and continuing to build on a very strong finish to last season which resulted in a playoff finish. I know the organization deserves that to be the minimum standard and I will give everything that I have to help make sure that standard is achieved. I am grateful for the organization’s trust and belief in what I bring to the table, and I’ll make sure to repay that trust every day by working my tail off to achieve the success the organization deserves. Ambush Nation and Family Arena, so you soon!”
