Recently, former WWE Tag Team Champion Grayson Waller shared that current AEW star MVP helped him out during a bar fight. Now, the Manager of the Hurt Syndicate has also confirmed the story.
While speaking on the latest episode of the Marking Out podcast, MVP shared the whole story about what happened at the bar when he stepped up to help Grayson Waller. He revealed that some drunk guys were being a little ‘obnoxious’ with the female talent, and thus Waller stepped up to help the women. When the guys were looking to have a fight, that is when MVP stepped in.
“As I recall, we were at the hotel bar. I think it was WrestleMania in Philly. We were at the hotel bar and I think Grayson Waller had won the tag titles that night or something like that. I mean, it’s Philadelphia, Philly fans are going to be Philly fans. These are the people that cheered when Michael Irvin got hurt. I think there were some drunk wrestling fans that were hanging out at the bar and I think they were being a little obnoxious to some female talent or something like that.
“If I recall correctly, I think Grayson Waller was just kind of telling the guys like, back off, chill out or whatever. I think they got kind of drunk and obnoxious, tried to bow up. I don’t necessarily — I wouldn’t call it a fight, but you know like, what’s going on over here? Like, ‘Hey, everything alright over here?’ Josh Barnett and I have a relationship that goes way back.” [H/T Fightful.com]
MVP: I’d much rather have Shayna Baszler on my side than some of those guys
MVP also shared that he did not step up alone; he, along with GCW’s Josh Barnette and Shayna Baszler. The AEW star also mentioned that he would rather have Shayna Baszler in his corner than most guys.
“It was just a situation where we’re at the bar and we’re in our space. We’re all comfortable, we’re chilling and these dudes are being dickheads. I think Grayson said that once me, Josh, and Shayna walked up, he just went and sat down. To be in a situation like that, I can think of a lot of guys that I’d much rather have Shayna Baszler on my side than some of those guys. I remember that moment, we were just looking out for one of us. These guys were wrong, they were out of hand. They didn’t turn into anything, they f***ed off because they knew they were in deep water,” MVP said.
