Grayson Waller is set to appear in his home country for Pro Wrestling Australia.
The Australian will be the latest WWE Superstar to work outside of the promotion in recent months. This year, WWE has worked with outside promotions more than ever before.
In a promo posted to Twitter, Grayson Waller announced his long-awaited return to wrestling in Australia. The former WWE Tag Team Champion is set to face off with Jimmy Townsend at PWA Colosseum Saturday, on October 12th at the Metro Theatre, Sydney. This is his first match back in PWA since 2021.
Grayson Waller first ran through his history with Jimmy Townsend. He spoke about their past, and how Waller was there for Townsend’s first training session. Grayson Waller revealed he took him under his wing and helped him become the wrestler he is today.
“I can’t be mad at you, can I Jimmy? This is what I taught you. Mind games. Saying whatever you’ve gotta say to get what you want, and I know what you want. You could have cashed in the Key to the Card on any of the PWA Champions. You could have actually got in Colosseum for once! But what’s more valuable than all those things combined? The Grayson Waller rub.”
“There’s a certain level of disrespect online that I think you crossed. When you remember who I am to you, young boy. I was there for your first training session. I remember it like it was yesterday. Your hot mum picking you up afterwards. Very memorable, but I saw something in you. I saw your drive, I saw your passion. I saw a little bit of me in you. So I took you under my wing. I took you all around Sydney, I taught you how to pay your dues. How to do this properly. I taught you how to take souls and never take no for an answer.”
Grayson Waller Confirmed He Is Wrestling Jimmy Townsend As PWA Collosseum 2024
Grayson Waller continued, and revealed that he helped Jimmy Townsend to get backstage at Elimination Chamber in Australia last year.
He then confirmed that Grayson Waller vs Jimmy Townsend will take place PWA’s Colosseum Saturday on October 12th at the Metro Theatre, Sydney.
“And when you wanted to better yourself, come to America and train, whose house did you stay in? Whose food did you eat? Elimination Chamber, the biggest show in Australia wrestling history. Who got your backstage? Who got you to be an extra so you could see your dream right in front of you to help you attain it? All you could do was mark out because ‘you saw Logan Paul over there’. You think I’m scared of you, Jimmy?
Since I left PWA, week after week, I’ve gone toe-to-toe with the best, and I’ve never taken a step back. World Champions, Hall of Famers, legends, it doesn’t matter. I’m not scared of you, Jimmy. I’m scared of what I’ll do to you. But then I thought about it. One of the best of all time once asked me to step into the deep end with him, to see if I could swim. And Jimmy? Maybe its time to find out if you can swim. Be careful what you ask for. Night 1, Colosseum. My city, my house, my show. Jimmy Townsend vs Grayson Waller is on. You’re welcome for the rub.”
He added a further Tweet, saying “Be careful what you wish for@prefectjimmy“
