10 Wrestlers Who DESPERATELY Need Something New In 2026
6. Grayson Waller
Splitting A-Town Down Under originally looked like it would lead to a big push for Grayson Waller, while Austin Theory was left in the dust. Over 2025 - and specifically in the past few weeks - that has proven to be entirely the opposite case.
Waller being paired with The New Day has been a step back for his career, which is strange considering how great Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are. One would think being associated with arguably the greatest tag team of all time would be a positive thing.
The problem is that "Big G" just isn't Big E, and WWE isn't even trying to put any emphasis on him. At best, he's the "you said it, boss" type of underling. At worst, he's just ringside and might as well not even be there, or relegated to a promo during a commercial break nobody will see. None of this is increasing his star power.
Waller has the potential to be the next Miz, but only if WWE actually pushes him. The Miz won titles and was a prominent character. Waller is just stuck in supporting player limbo.
