Aussie WWE star Grayson Waller and his fellow wrestler Austin Theory have been slammed by fitness influencer Joey Swoll after the former Sydney schoolteacher tried to intimidate another gym-goer.
Waller – whose real name is Matthew Farrelly – uploaded a clip to Instagram recently where he was lifting weights with Theory, his tag-team partner.
Both WWE identities were incensed when another person walked past as they were filming their workout.
‘You don’t see the camera there, idiot?’ Waller stated in the clip.
The vision soon caught the attention of Swoll, who called out the fired up pair for over-reacting.

‘Wow. Grayson Waller and Austin Theory, you think just because you are a couple of WWE superstars that you get to treat people this way?’ Swoll said in a TikTok video.
‘Just because you’re filming, everybody else has to stop what they are doing just for you?
‘I’m sorry, you don’t own the gym and I don’t really care who you are.
‘Do better, chicken legs.’
A trading of insults soon followed on social media, with Theory promising to ‘smack the ‘s**t’ out of Swoll, who warned the wrestler ‘you don’t want this smoke’.
Swoll – who has more than four million Instagram followers – then added if Theory kept insulting, he was ‘happy to end your career on social media and in WWE.’
The back and forth wasn’t over yet, with Waller labelling Swoll’s followers a ‘bunch of fat, ugly losers’.
Swoll retorted with: ‘Someone tell this Ken doll looking like the lead from a knockoff Starship Troopers movie that went straight to DVD, I’ll meet him at Wrestlemania, SmackDown, Raw, or ANYWHERE!’ as the ugly feud threatened to intensify.
The influencer, who on labels himself the ‘CEO of Gym Positivity’ on his account on X, often generates headlines with his gym commentary.
