So they went back to the well by sending him to this week\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cagesideseats.com\/wwe\/463714\/wwe-nxt-results-live-discussion-july-28-2026-borne-vs-hendrix\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">episode<\/a> of NXT television and giving him a live microphone to take some shots at everyone, from Austin Theory, to New Day, to even himself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Waller then made clear he wants to finally do what he couldn\u2019t when he was in NXT the first time \u2014 win the NXT championship. He called out Cruz Montana for having a bad name, then went after current Champion Tony D\u2019Angelo by calling his new baby ugly and then disrespected the entirety of the male roster, calling them lazy, complacent, and happy to be here. The women are running laps around them, he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">They also did the bit where they claimed Shawn Michaels wanted to cut him off. Instead, he just went off on the roster even more. Finally, the mic was cut and he told the camera \u201cconsider your cages rattled.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Are you buying the reinvention of Grayson Waller?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"We haven\u2019t seen Grayson Waller on WWE television for a while, at least since The New Day departed&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":790930,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[88,4366,94185],"class_list":["post-790929","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-entertainment","tag-wwe","tag-wwe-nxt"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/790929","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=790929"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/790929\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/790930"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=790929"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=790929"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=790929"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
