‘The Aussie Icon’ Grayson Waller is considered one of the most arrogant superstars in WWE. He is known for his trolling behavior, as he takes massive jabs at WWE legends and superstars. However, recently, he stood up against disrespect in his home country and even protected the kayfabe. During the media appearances of Waller and LA Knight, the show host asked Knight to perform his signature move.

After the host asked The Megastar to perform his signature, he simply declined the request and asked Waller to handle the situation. The latter looked furious after a person came on set with dukes with him. The Arrogant Aussie yelled at him with anger, saying he was going to punch the man in the jaw. Moreover, he also pointed out the disrespect of the show host for WWE Superstars.

I don’t think you understand, because if I go over there we’re gonna have the police here, because I’m not gonna give you some fake punch. I’m gonna punch you straight in the jaw. The disrespect that you give me when you act like this isn’t real. Don’t act tough. You guys disrespect us, are you kidding me?
Grayson Waller to the crew member

It was a wise move from Grayson, as he protected the kayfabe. He made professional wrestling feel real at that moment, as he brought out the animosity in him while confronting the crew member. It was a clear disrespect from the people in the media, as WWE finishers are devastating for anyone outside of professional wrestling.

Moreover, LA Knight held himself to this, as he was the first person the host asked for to give the finisher. Besides, Waller has been getting a lot of praise on the internet for standing up for professional wrestling. The Megastar and The Aussie Icon were invited to the show in order to promote WWE’s Elimination Chamber in Perth, Australia.

Grayson simply posted a picture of an infamous superstar on his X account. Waller posted a picture of David Schultz, who is popular for taking out the press during his time in professional wrestling. It was a hilarious troll, as expected by the Aussie Icon after the incident.

The Arrogant Aussie has certainly made a name for himself with his attitude. Although he is just getting started in professional wrestling, he has a lot to learn in his career. With the Elimination Chamber in his home country, we can expect that WWE might have some huge plans for the superstar.
