Austin Theory reflected on his televised alliance with Vince McMahon on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast, saying he didn’t fully realize the significance of McMahon’s backing until a key moment at the end of a US Championship match.
“Then when I got to the main roster, I didn’t even realise Vince was pushing me, and behind me, until I remember when I won the US Title and became the youngest US Champ, but at the end of that match, Vince wanted all the heels to come out, hold me up,” Theory said. “And that’s when it kind of hit me, like, I was going places.”
Theory became the youngest US Champion in WWE history in 2022 and went on to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Championship at WrestleMania 39, losing to Cody Rhodes. He currently teams with Bron Breakker as The Vision alongside Logan Paul, who is sidelined with a torn left triceps.
