Grayson Waller gave his home country something brand new to cheer for during WWE’s recent tour of Australia. The SmackDown star introduced a never-before-seen finisher during a match against Rey Fenix, which was taped for WWE Main Event.
The match took place during WWE’s SmackDown taping last week, part of a packed schedule that included Crown Jewel and Raw. Waller, draped in the Australian flag, received a huge ovation from the crowd as he made his entrance.
And he didn’t disappoint. At the end of the match, Waller pulled out a fresh move that’s now officially his new finisher. It’s a flipping avalanche overdrive-style move off the middle rope—something fans hadn’t seen from him before. He picked up the win over Rey Fenix with the maneuver and later confirmed the change on social media.
“New finisher, who dis?” Waller wrote, though he stopped short of revealing a name for the move.
Until now, Waller’s most recognized finishing moves were the Rolling Thunder Stunner—where he’d launch himself into the ring through the ropes before hitting a Stunner—and the Somersault Unprettier. But this new mid-rope finisher might be the next evolution of Waller’s game, and debuting it in Australia made the moment even more special for the crowd and for him.
Waller’s creativity continues to set him apart, and this move could be his new ticket to finishing off bigger opponents on bigger stages.
