Report: Update On Theory's WWE Push
Theory's WWE push isn't slowing down
Apr 25, 2022
Theory (FKA Austin Theory) has been a featured performer on WWE TV since being called up to Monday Night Raw in the 2021 Draft and that doesn't look set to change anytime soon.
According to WrestleVotes, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon views Theory as a young John Cena and the boss will give the new United States Champion 'everything he needs to be successful.'
"Now that his push is in full effect, source states he anticipates bigger & bigger things for Theory. A person with direct knowledge states Vince 'sees a young John Cena in Theory' and will 'give the kid everything he needs to be successful,'" WrestleVotes tweeted.
Since being drafted to Monday Night Raw, Theory has feuded with the likes of Jeff Hardy, The Mysterios, and Finn Balor. The former EVOLVE Champion then aligned with Vince McMahon after he stole Cleopatra's egg at Survivor Series and Theory has since twice unsuccessfully challenged for the WWE Championship.
Theory lost a high-profile WrestleMania 38 match to Pat McAfee but he then assisted Vince McMahon to help him defeat the SmackDown commentator.
The 24-year-old's push then continued after The Showcase Of The Immortals and he defeated Finn Balor to capture the United States Title on April 18.
