WWE SmackDown Tag Team Champion Grayson Waller is excited to compete in Jacksonville, Florida, a city that supposedly hasn’t seen good wrestling in a long time.
Waller is scheduled to be a part of the May 17th WWE live event in the city that is considered the home of WWE’s main rival All Elite Wrestling.
On a recent edition of the “Going Ringside” podcast, Waller avoided mentioning AEW by name but made his views on Tony Khan’s company clear. He said,
“Finally, some good wrestling in Jacksonville. I feel like it’s been years since we’ve seen some really good wrestling in Jacksonville. That’s what we’re bringing back. Somehow, $20 for a ticket. I don’t know how I feel about $20 to see the SmackDown Tag Team Champions.
“We’re coming to Jacksonville. It’s not like you can support the Jaguars, that team sucks. Trevor Lawrence, he’s horrendous. Pretty much any sports team in Jacksonville sucks. Maybe you want to come see a real champion because you won’t be seeing one anytime soon.”
Tony Khan’s father Shahid Khan is the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars and the AEW President also has a management role with the NFL team.
Waller & Austin Theory, collectively known as A-Town Down Under, captured the WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania 40.
