"The kid is great" - Steve Austin predicts big things for WWE Superstar (Exclusive)
Stone Cold Steve Austin has given his thoughts on whether Theory will fulfill his potential in WWE.
The 24-year-old recently won the Money in the Bank contract to earn a guaranteed world title opportunity at a time of his choosing. If he successfully cashes in, the up-and-coming superstar will become one of the youngest world champions in WWE history.
Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter, Austin reflected on the Stone Cold Stunner he gave Theory at WrestleMania 38. He also predicted that the former United States Champion will go on to achieve great things.
“I think the kid is great,” Austin said. “Really good look, stunned him at WrestleMania 38. I think he’s got a lot of talent, and if he keeps his head on straight and he keeps his eyes and ears open, he’s gonna have a hell of a run.” [0:29-0:41]
Theory has repeatedly teased that he could cash in on the winner of Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns at SummerSlam on July 30. At the same event, the Money in the Bank contract holder will challenge Bobby Lashley in a United States Championship rematch.
