Everybody knows that WWE superstars perform certain characters or gimmicks on TV. Sometimes, these characters resonate with their real persona, at times it does not. However, the best indicator of a pro-wrestler’s work is when they blur the line between reality and persona. One such incident took place in a recent WWE event when Grayson Waller’s heelish activity broke that thin line.

Nobody knows what the intentions of the fan were, but the indication was that the fan was either trying to approach or even attack Waller. However, Waller seemed completely unphased by the incident, opting to strut away from the scene with an amused grin plastered over his face.
But this incident also indicates that his heel character might be getting on the nerves of some, especially with his recent pointed jabs at singer Taylor Swift. So, in a way, it should be taken as a positive sign.
