While most fans are eagerly counting down the minutes until WrestleMania 39, when the entire WWE Universe descends on Los Angeles to put on two of the biggest shows of the year in terms of audience and proverbial weight, it’s important to remember that “The Showcase of the Immortals” isn’t the only show happening in […]

After having the unfortunate luck of having to explain to his son, Quill, why Daddy was getting choked out on the front lawn while a camera crew filmed it all at the hands of Grayson Waller, Johnny Gargano took to social media to let it be known that he has absolutely no desire to let […]

Though he technically has a WWE contract and is a member of the RAW roster alongside his wife Candice LeRae and Kayfabe son-in-law Dexter Lumis, Johnny Gargano will always be known as Mr. NXT for his incredible in-ring efforts in the developmental promotion. According to Cagematch, Gargano has wrestled 260 matches and counting, which feels […]

After spending his entire run back in WWE on RAW, Johnny Gargano is heading back to NXT on WrestleMania 39 weekend in order to serve as Shawn Michaels’ champion versus his greatest foe since The Undertaker, Grayson Waller. Finally, fans will get to see Mr. NXT back in the promotion he helped to champion for […]

After weeks of anticipation, Shawn Michaels and Grayson Waller were finally afforded a chance to sit across from each other on a very special edition of The Grayson Waller Effect at NXT Stand and Deliver, and needless to say, the duo did not disappoint. Coming out to the ring to an incredible chorus of cheers […]

After finally getting a response to his call-out of Shawn Michaels on television, on Twitter, and on Instagram Live, Grayson Waller took to social media once more to thank HBK for accepting his invitation to be a guest on The Grayson Waller Effect. “G’day Mr. Michaels, I just wanted to say a huge thanks for […]

Grayson Waller isn’t a Shawn Michaels guy, and unfortunately for HBK, the feeling is very much mutual, as the “Down Under Wonder” has put it upon himself to wage a personal war against NXT‘s head honcho in the leadup-to the biggest show of the year, Stand and Deliver. After declaring before the show that he […]

After hijacking the ending of last week’s edition of NXT with a surreal channel-changing spot, Shawn Michaels has officially let Grayson Waller know that he isn’t allowed on television for the final NXT of the month of February. Now granted, will Waller actually stay off of television, or does he have some sort of trick […]

After watching Bron Breakker best Jinder Mahal to maintain his NXT World Championship reign, fans at home were treated to an interesting encounter where the channel “changed” from Peacock to WWE in a bit of television trickery that would make Tubi’s Super Bowl ad proud. Watching the magic remote select the Stand and Deliver video […]

One week removed from defending Shawn Michaels’ honor in a match with disgruntled NXT standout Grayson Waller – a win that saw Waller get so upset that he was thrown out of the show for going at the Heartbreak Kid – Tyler Bate decided to take to the NXT ring to cut a promo on […]

Though he technically lost to Bron Breakker in 2023, twice actually, at New Year’s Evil and Vengeance Day, for some reason, Grayson Waller blames it all on Shawn Michaels, NXT’s head of creative, who booked him in both bouts. After getting in HBK’s face after Vengeance Day during the media scrum that resulted in a […]

After taking care of business against Grayson Waller at NXT Vengeance Day, Bron Breakker had a lot to say backstage, even if he said most of it while attempting to catch his breath. He complimented the crowd, complemented the WWE Universe, and even complimented the atmosphere of the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. “Ah, […]

Bron Breakker is one tough you-know-what. A second-generation star with just about the best pedigree one could imagine within WWE – even if he doesn’t use the Steiner last name – Breakker has won almost every match he’s wrestled in the promotion and has a winning record against every single performer on the NXT roster […]

After two months of anticipation, Vengeance Day is here; soon the NXT sub-galaxy will find out who will be its champion head into the future, Bron Breakker or Grayson Waller, which member of Toxic Attraction unseats Roxanne Perez as Women’s Champion, assuming one does, and whether Dijak’s bite is a tough as his bark. Taking […]

When Shawn Michaels made the shocking decision to fire Mandy Rose following her risque postings on FanTime, it sent the entire NXT sub-Universe into disarray. Michaels and company had to change their plans for the NXT Women’s Championship in order to put the belt on Roxanne Perez, the Women’s Iron Survivor Challenge winner, prematurely, Toxic […]

Grayson Waller is on the cusp of fully cementing his legacy in NXT and becoming one of the top prospects, if not the top prospect, period, in the WWE developmental system; all he has to do is beat Bron Breakker, the second-generation Steiner and two-time NXT World Champion, to win the belt at the first […]

After closing out the WWE calendar year with Deadl1ne, NXT has been afforded the first named show of 2023 in New Year’s Evil, a show that technically isn’t a “Premium Live Event” – the next NXT PLE isn’t until Vengence Day in February – but features a card worthy of a commercial-free experience thanks to […]

Though Grayson Waller has a match on the books against Bron Breakker for the NXT New Year’s Evil for the NXT World Championship, he isn’t settling for that being his biggest bout for the brand. No, because Waller is a – self-proclaimed – pillar of NXT, he needs to have marquee matches to draw additional […]

When Booker T started sharing his thoughts via The Hall of Fame, it gave fans a glimpse into the mind of one of the more experienced minds in professional wrestling. He told stories about WCW and the glory days of WWE, shot on current topics, and even weighed in on his ever-expanding collection of students […]

Grayson Waller has been an active member of the WWE Universe since all the way back in June of 2021, when he made his in-ring debut under his current gimmick on an episode of 205 Live. Since then, Waller has worked a respectable 60 matches between 205 Live, NXT, Main Event, and the WrestleMania 38 […]

Grayson Waller is an absolute force in NXT. The first-ever winner of the Iron Survivor Challange who near-immediately used his place as the #1 contender to the NXT World Championship belt to cheapshot Bron Breakker after his win over Apollo Crews at Deadl1ne, sooner or later, Waller is going to be a main event player […]

When the participants were announced for the NXT Iron Survivor Challenge, few expected to see Grayson Waller close out the contest drinking out of his shoe with the word “winner” before his name on the title card. Carmelo Hayes was in the match, as was JD McDonagh, and even dark horse entrants like Axiom and […]

And just like that, there was one match left on NXT Deadl1ne, and boy oh boy, what a match it was. Taking the ring against Apollo Crews, his breakfast/fishing buddy, Bron Breakker was ready to wrestle his 11th match as the NXT World Champion after 251 days and counting with the strap, and you’d best […]

After watching a very fun Woman’s Iron Survivor Challenge to open the show, fans of the WWE Universe were hyped as heck to see the men take part in the second running of the same match concept on NXT Deadl1ne, the final “Premium Live Event” of the calendar year. Would the bout deliver in the […]

Folks, it’s official: NXT Deadl1ne is upon us. Soon, the WWE Universe will be aghast with all sorts of interesting matches, including two for championships and the debut of the Iron Survivor Challange, a new, WarGames-inspired fatal five-way with a very unusual set of rules that could either be the innovation of the year, surpassing […]

Grayson Waller has been a member of the WWE Universe since March of 2021, when the Australian-born grappler then going by Matty Wahlberg signed on with the company, according to The Wrestling Observer.
