Former WWE champion says The Judgment Day owe him a thank you for his help, and it is not Jimmy Uso
The Judgment Day won the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship after defeating the team of Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso, and a former champion believes his help played a vital role in their win. He feels that the members of the faction owe him a thank you.
The superstar in question is Austin Theory, who teamed up with Grayson Waller to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship last week on SmackDown. The duo pushed the champions to their limit but could not secure the title-claiming win.
Speaking on WWE's The Bump, the former United States Champion claimed Cody Rhodes and Jey Uso lost because of the beating they received from him and Waller last Friday. Theory believes it made the job easy for The Judgment Day and they should thank him and Waller for the assistance.
"Main Event Jey Uso and Cody Rhodes, are they the tag team champions right now? Uh-uh, I didn't think so, okay? I didn't think so. Yeah, thanks to me because I beat them down. Me and Grayson Waller, we wore them down. When they showed up on Monday Night RAW, Judgment Day, you know what they did? Swooped in...They do [owe Theory a 'Thank You']" [From 25:22 to 25:40]
