Grayson Waller Wants Rematch With AJ Styles – Long before he was the final pick in the 2023 WWE Draft, Grayson Waller had a brief run-in with AJ Styles in early 2022 that resulted in Styles defeating Waller on an episode of WWE NXT.
Speaking with the Australian Fox Sports outlet, Waller revealed he has always been a fan of AJ Styles and says he needs the rematch because he can’t stand the thought of losing.
“When I was a teenager, AJ Styles was my favourite wrestler. I got the opportunity to see him on a tour in Sydney when I was probably like 14-15. So I was always a big AJ fan,” Waller said.“So he was always number one, and the fact that got to do it in NXT (feud with him) was wild. But that night was so important to me – because I feel like I didn’t just hang in there with him. It wasn’t a situation where like, ‘oh, wow, he hung with him’. I think I went in there, and I competed against him. And I kind of showed who I was.But I lost. So at the end of the day, I can’t take anything positive from it, because I lost – and that’s something that I’ve thought about a lot.
“Now he’s gonna be on my talk show this week, you know, Saturday morning on Binge on Smackdown. And I think that’s the biggest name you could possibly get,” he continued. “I need that rematch, lad. I need that so bad. I hate losing. I hate losing so much. I hate the fact that he can say he beat me. So I need to change that.”
Waller may not get his chance at a rematch for a while but AJ Styles will be a guest on his talk show as he prepares to face Seth Rollins at WWE Night of Champions.
