Austin Theory recently detailed his off-screen relationship with WWE Chairman Vince McMahon.
Theory has had a meteoric rise since returning to the main roster after the 2021 WWE Draft. The RAW Superstar has been a part of several high profile matches and segments in recent months. Austin Theory and Vince McMahon have been involved in an on-screen storyline since Survivor Series last year.
Speaking to Riju Dasgupta of Sportskeeda Wrestling, Austin shared his experience of working closely with Mr. McMahon, stating that the latter is one of the craziest people he has ever met.
"I mean this guy is crazy,'' Theory said. ''He gets in a limousine and it explodes and he gets out and he's fine. He's like Terminator, man. Like when I'm sitting there talking to him, I'm just like 'this is insane'. Even when he's telling me he's gonna, you know, beat my face in and take a selfie and send it to my mom, I'm just like 'cool man, like you're Vince McMahon'." [8:00 to 8:26]

Elimination Chamber in Saudi Arabia this year will see Austin Theory enter the unforgiving structure along with five other superstars from RAW as Bobby Lashley puts his WWE title on the line.
The match also features stars like Brock Lesnar and Seth "Freakin" Rollins, so Austin's chances of winning are definitely on the lower side. However, a major upset cannot be ruled out as Vince McMahon's promotion has pulled bigger surprises in the past.
