During this week’s WWE NXT broadcast, Austin Theory made his return to the yellow brand and ran into Bronson Reed backstage. This marked Theory’s first appearance on WWE television since being part of RAW as a member of Seth Rollins’ group on June 22nd.
Theory has been off WWE television due to some allegations made against him during the #SpeakingOut movement. Velveteen Dream was in a similar spot and also returned on NXT after some time off.
Theory confronted Reed backstage and the segment ended with Reed slapping him.
