During Friday’s edition of the Wrestling Observer Live, it was noted by Bryan Alvarez that Vince McMahon reportedly sees Austin Theory as a future John Cena level talent.
Speaking on the show about Austin Theory and his WrestleMania match, Alvarez had this to say:
“Whether you all see it or not, Vince sees this guy as like a John Cena – this Austin Theory. There’s a reason he’s grooming him and he’s always there in his segments. That’s what he sees in this guy. Maybe he wants to teach this guy that you also have to be able to lose so Pat McAfee will get the win [but] I would presume Austin Theory is winning.”
Austin Theory has been closely associated with Vince McMahon since late November, with their partnership starting on the RAW after Survivor Series. In the time since, Theory has found himself as one of the final two men in the WWE Championship match at Elimination Chamber, as well as now being set for a marquee match at this weekend’s WrestleMania.
