Grayson Waller Promo
I love it. I love it. A wise man once said, you can never fail if you bet on yourself. What a beautiful speech. I nearly had a tear in my eye last week. But that wise man overstayed his welcome. He wants to talk about his wife. He wants to talk about his future. For some reason, he wanted to thank all of you, like they have done anything for anyone. Last week, I personally, by myself, did exactly what I said I was going to do. I had all the views. I was trending everywhere. But I guess that’s what happens when you bet on yourself. You remember this. That was my favorite part right there. Oh, man, I’m getting chills watching it again. I love it. You didn’t like that? Let’s be realistic though. Last week, I cemented myself as the NXT Superstar. I went from jumping off the cage to winning WarGames to ending the career of an NXT Legend.
And then I spent my weekend partying with the biggest celebrities in the world. What did you guys do? What did you do this weekend? The same thing you do every day. You complained online about someone who is more successful than you. I’m a nice guy though. I’m a nice guy. I’m going to give you some clout. Let’s look at what people are saying. What are you saying on twitter? Here we go. You got me there. That’s really nice. Wade, you said that about me? I got some bad news for you. This ain’t 2010. I couldn’t care less what you think of me. Vic Joseph, last week, I did that to your best friend in the entire world in front of you and you didn’t do a single thing. I want you to remember that. Shows what kind of man you are. I don’t need friends. I don’t need family. I certainly don’t need any of you. The only thing that I need to go to the top of this industry is Grayson Waller.
