Grayson Waller explains why he believes The New Day is better than The Hardys.
Former WWE Tag Team Champion Grayson Waller has been trying to work with The New Day ever since his old A-Town Down Under tag team partner, Austin Theory, got sidelined due to injury. Staying true to his on-screen character, Waller claimed Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods are better than Matt and Jeff Hardy, while speaking to Chris Van Vliet on his INSIGHT podcast.
“They’re just falling off a ladder. That’s so hard? I could do that,” Grayson Waller said. “You know how many fail videos I’ve seen on YouTube of people, old people, falling off ladders? I’ve seen it happen before. I’m not impressed with the Hardys. I think The New Day would dog walk the Hardys.”
Grayson Waller even joked about The Hardys being young NXT prospects, taking a shot at their recent NXT Tag Team Championship reign.
“No, those young NXT prospects, The Hardy Boyz? You just fall off ladders. I’m not impressed by you,” Waller said. “I think The New Day would walk all over those guys. So I know they’re hanging down in NXT a little bit, but hopefully one day they get called up, and if they have the opportunity to get called up to the main roster, I think The New Day is gonna have a chat with them.”
Grayson Waller Still Has The New Day’s Grieving Hat
Grayson Waller then claimed that he has Xavier Woods’ grieving hat in his house and put it on the giant Frankenstein he put on display for Halloween.
“The best thing, I think about The New Day is you can give them anything, and they turn it into something huge, like they’re so good at this mourning thing, because obviously mourning the death of the tag division. It’s so sad that the tag division is dead on Monday Night Raw, little nail in the coffin. You got Dragon Lee and AJ Styles as champs now, that’s cringe. That’s really sad. That mourning thing, that’s something that was a one time thing that they’ve now turned into months worth of television. And they have giant hats, which I now have proudly in my house.
“I have a giant Frankenstein for Halloween. He has a nice giant, whatever the hat Woods calls it. But they’re just so talented doing that stuff and being a guy who was in a tag team for a long time, getting to work with them, it’s a dream. They’ve been through everything that’s ever happened. So I’m trying to learn all I can from them, because a lot of the vets in the locker room, they don’t want to hand back down, they want to protect their spot. New Day are great guys. And Big E can’t wrestle, so you get Big G.”
