The grand return of WWE legends Dwayne Johnson and John Cena has been the hot topic of discussion till now. While the fans got the news of a whopping multibillion-dollar TKO merger, they also saw two of the greatest personalities in sports entertainment reentering the fray. Not only that, the comeback would mark Cena’s longest in the past few years.

However, the return of both legends seemed like a bitter pill to swallow for the likes of Austin Theory and The Bloodline. In fact, yet another name who has been disturbing Cena ever since he came back was also spotted shooting salvos on The Rock as well. But who was that guy? Let’s find out!

Who claimed to carry the legends like Dwayne Johnson and John Cena?

Australian starlet Grayson Waller recently sat with Peter Rosenberg on the Cheap Heat podcast. In the podcast, the Aussie was spotted discussing various aspects of the WWE. And his conversation wouldn’t have been complete without mentioning John Cena and The Rock. Without hemming and hawing he said, “I don’t know if The Rock is ready for the Waller Effect. He’s been away for a while. I’m already helping out John Cena.”

In his usual heel way, Waller also teased the two WWE legends, saying that he had been the focal point of their reentries. He continued further and said, “I’ve got a lot that I’m carrying. My back is sore from carrying these legends!”  Notably, Waller seemed unconvinced by both legends. However, he thought that he played a crucial role in carrying legends like Cena and Johnson.

Considering the heel persona of wrestlers like Waller, the scenario becomes captivating when they break their character and lay the cards on the table. The same was done by the Australian starlet once when he hailed Cena with his words.
