This past weekend at WWE Survivor Series, Austin Theory recaptured the United States Championship after losing it a few months earlier to Bobby Lashley. The 25-year-old has previously struggled to win matches and lost his Money in the Bank cash-in thanks to Lashley’s interference.

On the latest episode of his Oh…You Didn’t Know? podcast, WWE Senior Vice President of Live Events Brian “Road Dogg” James discussed Theory’s career on the main roster thus far and believes the young superstar has a lot to offer despite having lost many matches.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On how James evaluates success for talent: “If you think about Austin Theory, working on TV a bunch, having great matches but hadn’t won any of them, I don’t think about that. This is where I’m going to anger more people with, is Austin Theory is putting on some, as the kids say, bangers. Don’t you get over by having great matches?”

On how victory doesn’t necessarily define wrestlers like Theory: “If wrestling is so good, profitable, and marketable, then why isn’t his ability to wrestle greatly getting him over? I would argue that it is getting him over. The kid is a stud athlete, good-looking, and can go. Sure he’s losing some matches. So has Seth Rollins, and so has everybody. Get mad at me, internet; his character is getting established and he’s going to put on great wrestling matches.”
