Grayson Waller is keeping a close eye on the upcoming WWE trade.
Following Jey Uso being announced as the newest member of the Monday Night Raw roster, it was announced by Adam Pearce that SmackDown will be receiving someone from the red brand in return.
With the identity of the Superstar due to be transferred still remaining a mystery, Waller has voiced his concerns regarding the news.
Appearing on the After The Bell podcast, Waller does not want Cody Rhodes to come over to SmackDown as he feels that he will steal his spotlight:
“Yeah, it kinda worries me who they’re gonna bring over. I’m worried it’s going to be Cody. You wanna talk about someone who gonna try and overshadow me, he tried to do it on my show Saturday. I’m polite enough to let him on my show, he’s making these jokes about hip toss class and skull and yes, I enjoyed skill with Terry Taylor, okay Cody? You don’t have to mention it in front of everyone.
The SmackDown Superstar continued, stating that if were up to him he would like a fellow Aussie to join him:
I’m hoping it is someone, for me personally, I would love it to be Indi Hartwell, bring an Australian over. Maybe Bronson Reed, make SmackDown the Australian show with all of the big name Australians. We don’t need Cody, we don’t need these guys trying to over shadow us, we need people who are going to take that torch.”
Grayson Waller Embarrassed By Cody Rhodes At Payback
Grayson Waller still hasn’t forgiven The American Nightmare for the events that took place at the Payback Premium Live Event. The Australian star hoped to simply have a conversation with the WrestleMania main eventer but was instead upstaged by the announcement of Jey Uso’s return and ate a Superkick to close out the segment. Waller would post a picture of his recovery after the incident which appeared to make reference to a popular story that broke earlier that day.
