WWE Star Warns Major Move Is Legitimately Dangerous
WWE star Grayson Waller took a Mexican Destroyer from Penta from the top rope on the September 22, 2025, episode of WWE Monday Night RAW during a six-man tag team No DQ match.
In a recent interview with Chris Van Vliet on his Insight podcast, Waller acknowledged the move was beautiful and that Penta is very skilled, but also warned that the risk is high and not something to be taken lightly.
“For some reason, I think people forget how dangerous that move is. Legitimately, because everyone does it. If you watch an indie show, they’ll do it four or five times.”
People In WWE Were Upset With Grayson Waller For Taking Mexican Destroyer From The Top Rope
This high-risk spot was notable and risky, and after the match, Grayson Waller was told backstage, “Don’t ever do that again” because of the danger involved with taking such a move from that height.
“I got backstage, and some people weren’t happy with me. They were like, don’t do that. Someone pulled me aside and said, ‘Don’t ever do that again.’ It was just like, I understand the risks involved, and obviously I don’t want to take a move like that, but Penta is very good at what he does, but it’s very dangerous and it’s scary to be in that position.
Waller described the experience as stressful and real, mentioning how he checked himself afterwards to make sure he was okay.
And I think sometimes we do so much wild stuff that sometimes we forget to put in perspective how wild that would be for someone off the street to be in that position, that high up, taking something like that. So that was a stressful thing. I think sometimes you go into, I don’t want to say go into shock, because that seems super scary. But when that impact happens and it’s like, Am I okay? Am I okay?
You do legitimately check yourself. Am I okay? Do I feel okay? Obviously, adrenaline is a crazy thing too, so sometimes you don’t feel stuff, and then a couple hours later you do. So it’s like, sometimes it’s a real, you say sell, but it’s real. I’m like, Am I okay? Am I okay? And thank God I was.”
