WWE's Grayson Waller ROASTS AEW During Interview
WWE star Grayson Waller might've caught Tony Khan's gaze following these comments.
Nobody show Tony Khan these comments from WWE star Grayson Waller.
The A-Town Down Under man ribbed AEW during a chat with News 4 Jacksonville's 'Going Ringside' show. During the interview, Waller repeatedly jabbed the Jacksonville Jaguars by saying they "suck" (Khan's family owns the team), and then turned his attention to an upcoming WWE show in the area.
That's when things got really tasty. Grayson joked: "Finally, some good wrestling in Jacksonville". Continuing, he added: "I feel like it’s been years since we’ve seen some really good wrestling in Jacksonville. That’s what we’re bringing back".
Of course, AEW regularly runs events in Jacksonville - the area is considered home turf for Tony Khan's company, so Waller knew exactly what he was doing here. It was all gentle needling and done completely in character, but Grayson knew he'd make headlines with his remarks.
In another fun moment, Waller said tickets were available for as low as $20. He thinks that's an incredible price to see the brand new SmackDown Tag-Team Champions. Quite.
Attention now turns to Khan. Will the AEW boss respond to Waller, or will he choose to ignore the WWE man's words?
