WWE RAW star sends a message to Austin Theory after failed cash-in; tags John Cena
Austin Theory might have failed to successfully cash-in his MITB contract but received a positive message from WWE RAW star Baron Corbin.
In the main event of WWE RAW, Theory cashed-in his contract on The Visionary for the United States Championship. However, it was spoiled by Bobby Lashley, who dragged the referee out of the ring, and Seth Rollins capitalized on the chaos by hitting Theory with The Stomp for the win.
Theory joined a list of WWE Superstars who have won the Money in the Bank briefcase but were unable to cash-in to become a champion. Former MITB winner Baron Corbin had a message for Theory.
"Hey @_Theory1 welcome to the club. We are a special group led by @JohnCena," Corbin tweeted.

Previously, John Cena, Damien Sandow, Braun Strowman, and Baron Corbin have failed to successfully cash-in their contracts. Apart from this, Mr. Kennedy and Otis have won the contract but lost to fellow superstars.

Unfortunately, the spell dried out as Vince McMahon retired from the company and passed on his duties to his successors. The new regime has scrapped almost every budding project, including Theory's push to be the next top guy in the company.
