Grayson Waller made an unforgettable return to WWE NXT on Tuesday night, opening the show with a fiery, unscripted style promo that saw him air frustrations about his WWE run while taking aim at several familiar names. Waller admitted his main roster stint had not lived up to expectations, claiming the last two years of his career had been "a complete embarrassment." He claimed the women's division was outperforming the men's roster, arguing that while many male wrestlers believed they were ready for the main roster, only a small number truly were. Waller has rarely appeared on WWE television since The New Day exited programming following Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods' departure from the company. In recent months, he has primarily competed at WWE and NXT live events.
