Grayson Waller had a verbal battle with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson last month on Twitter, which the former NXT star claims is already over.
Waller drew The Rock’s attention on Twitter by claiming that his SmackDown debut against Edge was better than Rock’s “cringe” debut in the venue at Survivor Series 1996.
In response, The Great One called Waller an “Outback Jack Off,” saying, “Here’s what’s more cringe – the fact you look and sound like you dropped out of some jabroni’s balloon knot.”
On a recent edition of the “Babyfaces” podcast, Waller called The Rock irrelevant and claimed he was over the duel quickly. He said,
“I was over The Rock three seconds after he tweeted me with some mediocre response. I was trying to help him out. I went out of my way to go there to make the Rock relevant in WWE again. Obviously, he’s a huge global superstar, everyone knows The Rock, he’s probably the most well-known professional wrestler of all time, but when it comes to WWE, it’s all about what have you done for me lately? He hasn’t done nothing for anyone lately, so I was trying to give him a path to come back in, maybe ease him in before Roman [Roman Reigns] and the Bloodline, they have all these things going on.”
“I don’t think he was about that. The Rock is at a stage in his life where he knows if he gets back in the ring, all these young, hungry guys, we’re not going to sit down and show him the respect. We want to fight. I don’t think The Rock wanted to fight me. I’ve moved on. I gave him his opportunity. He had the chance for the Grayson Waller rub, he didn’t take it, so I’m going to give that opportunity to someone else.”
