Theory's cool, I feel bad they made him cash in on the US title.
I like Austin theory
I was lucky enough to interview him at Money in the Bank in London. I was super nervous as it was my first ever interview and honestly I cannot say a bad word about Austin Theory. Made me feel like I was meant to be there. He absolutely smoked me at 2k though 🤣😭 Future World Champ, no doubt 🏆
Austin theory needs to be in the main event scene dude he’s too good
Man he's having a hard time. He will forever be a jobber because there's absolutely nothing compelling about this kid. There's no struggle. The only struggle is him having like stage fright in front of John Cena
It's amazing how such arrogant characters on screen seem to be the most down to earth off screen. Austin theory and Dom Mysterio. They just get the business.
The literal complete package, and the future face of the company especially when he becomes a baby face. I could not be more proud of this fellow Southeast native. He's got such an incredible mindset. It's interviews like this that remind you of it's not about the character you see on TV but the character of the person AND HARD WORK behind the camera and he's got all the tools to be a Grand slam champion and star wherever he goes AND THAT'S ALL DAY 👇🏾.
Such a chill dude
I wasnt actually looking forward or anything for this interview, but after seeing it.. Austin is really a likeable guy, hoping for the best for him and his career
This interview made me an Austin theory fan. All around, great human, wrestler.
Bro Theory is mad chill and I enjoy listening to him talk
I see full potential of Austin
He seems so personable. Why doesn’t he connect with the Audience as a Heel? Maybe a face turn will freshen him up.
He seems really cool and he'd be good face it'd be good if Grayson turned on him as a Heel he seems to really get go away heat but if he gets betrayed by Grayson i could see him really being a good Babyface
I think if wwe let him be him and not this current character I think he could get over he works hard has the talent and you can see when he’s talking about wwe and the superstars he’s worked with he has that gleam in his eyes which is rare to see he has shown he can hang with the best time let him prove week in week out he can
He’s definitely up next!
This made me like him so much more. When he turns face, dude is gonna skyrocket to the top.
Much, much respect for Austin Theory!
This dude deserves to be a world champion in the near future. I can see him being a heel one, or a baby face one. Because he's that good on mic, and his wrestling skills are awesome and he has a great mature vibe about him especially with how much he's learned throughout his time within the WWE. I really hope he goes real far in the WWE, much deserved. Great interview
he's actually a cool guy🤯🤯🤯
They need to have Grayson turn on him so he can take off like he should
I dont know why he hasnt been turned to a face, he has the look and feel of a face.
Not wrestling related but, where does Austin buy his Jewerly ?
Get Pat McAfee for the indy show!
I like him but he needs a few more years and possibly a mask. Yeah he’d be great with a mask.
As he's so annoying on TV (which is totally awesome and I love how annoying he is) he's even better to watch in interviews like this. What gem this guy is! Great interview!
