Grayson Waller To Compete Outside WWE Next Month In Australia

In 2024, WWE has collaborated with several promotions, in stark contrast to how the company did business under the watchful eye of Vince McMahon. Now, Grayson Waller is set to compete outside the promotion in what will prove to be a homecoming for the self-professed Aussie Icon.

Grayson will be a part of PWA Black Label’s Grand Final event, a two-day spectacle that’ll kick off on October 12, at the Metro Theatre in Sydney, Australia. Waller will take on Jimmy Townsend, somebody who Waller is very familiar with. In a video shared by PWA Black Label, Waller recalled taking Townsend under his wing before making clear that he’ll hold nothing back when they face off.

Waller joined PWA in 2017 under the name Matty Wahlberg and would remain with the promotion until signing with WWE in early 2021. In singles competition, Waller and Townsend have faced just once before in a PWA ring in a January 2021 showdown won by the future WWE Superstar.

WWE’s Collaboration

PWA Black Label is just the latest company to benefit from WWE’s newfound willingness to work with others. Currently, TNA Wrestling has worked with WWE NXT in a partnership that has seen talent appear on both sides. Several NXT Superstars are planned for upcoming TNA events while Zachary Wentz will be part of NXT’s debut on The CW.

Pro Wrestling NOAH and Marigold Wrestling have also seen WWE talent appear for their respective shows with AJ Styles and IYO SKY stepping through the ‘prohibited portal’ over the summer. Stay tuned to SEScoops for all the latest on WWE and its continued efforts to work with other wrestling promotions.
