Sink or Swim for Austin Theory
With Theory now being put into a major storyline on WWE TV, it's another chance for the former WWE United States Champion to break through as a performer. While Theory was heavily pushed under the Vince McMahon regime, he quickly cooled off after his "WrestleMania 39" victory over John Cena.
Theory was eventually paired with Grayson Waller, and while the two were able to win the WWE Tag Team Championship, most professional wrestling fans and experts viewed it as a significant step down the card. Theory is now involved in the top storyline on the "Monday Night Raw" brand, and it could be his last chance to enter the main event scene.
Throughout the past few months, several reports have claimed that Theory was initially set to be involved in the men's WarGames match as a participant, but plans changed. Ultimately, he was the one who helped Breakker earn a WWE World Heavyweight Championship match against Punk, which is scheduled for Jan. 5.
