Aussie Grayson Waller celebrated his WWE draft pick with an epic shoey and ‘onya mate

"I was born to do this!"

Two Aussie wrestlers have been selected by Raw and SmackDown in the 2023 WWE Draft and for Sydney’s Grayson Waller, there was no better celebration then a good ‘ol shoey!

Fellow Women’s Champion Rea Ripley was immediately picked in Round 1 by Raw; however, Waller was announced as the very last member of the SmackDown roster.

“You know, I’d love to come on here and say I can’t believe it,” Waller told WWE’s McKenzie Mitchell.

“I would love to tell you that I’ve thought about this moment since I was a little kid, and I never thought I’d be here. But the truth is, I’m not surprised. I was born to do this.”

While he knew he was a shoe-in (pun absolutely intended), Waller was surprised by how long it took for him to be drafted.

“You’ve got these people cheering me behind me, like they’re my friends. You think you got me here? I got me here,” he said.

“And I’m a very dangerous man and the only dangerous man than that is Grayson Waller with a chip on his shoulder and right now, I’ve got the biggest chip that exists, but we’ve got to celebrate, right? And as an Australian, there’s only one way to celebrate properly, cheers.”

The 33-year-old then poured a beer into his shoe and well, the results were hilarious.

Fans in the crowd behind him, as well as Ripley, were a little shocked by the act but we here in a Australia couldn’t be prouder!

‘Onya Grayson!
