Independent Circuit

Theory started his professional wrestling career back in 2016 and he started working on the independent circuit. He worked on various independent circuit promotions.

Debut in WWE

In 2018 he participated in a WWE tryout and in 2019 he made his in ring debut against Rodrick Strong where he challenged for the NXT North American Championship. It might have been a losing effort but he was pretty impressive on his WWE in ring debut. He spent a little more time on the NXT and in March 2020, he made his main roster debut.

But WWE understood that he was still not ready for the main roster yet so they sent him back to the NXT once again. He was never treated as a big deal in the NXT. He never got to win any championship from the promotion. He was nothing but a lower mid card in the NXT and it never looked like that WWE had any big plans for him.

Getting Drafted to Main Roster

In 2021 he returned to the main roster as a part of WWE Draft. He became a member of Monday Night RAW. Nobody had any expectations from him. Most of the fans thought he was going to be another jobber on the main roster. But the fans became a little surprised when he made an instant impact by beating Jeff Hardy on his first match on return.

He was portrayed as one of the biggest upcoming talents of the promotion. He had a lot of things to prove in front of the WWE fans since they did not see him working as a top star ever before. Slowly Theory was winning the trust of the fans and he was actually doing a pretty good job. There had been reports that Vince McMahon wanted to push him as a future face of the promotion.

He started his career as a heel and he is still a heel. He was given a new character upon making his main roster debut. He played the character of a selfie obsessed person and he kept on playing this character for more than a year. It was a new idea but it was not very well received and it was taken off by the end of 2021.

Vince McMahon’s protégé

On his early days he managed to win some big matches. He picked up victories over some of the biggest names of the promotion. He was even portrayed as the protégé of Mr McMahon whom McMahon wanted to groom by himself. Even an on screen pairing of McMahon and Theory was portrayed.

United States Champion

Big Match At WrestleMania 38

At WrestleMania 38, she got his first big match and it was against Pat McAfee. He might have lost the match but his performance was massively praised. After the match he received a Stunner from Stone Cold Steve Austin and he sold it pretty excellently. This Stunner sell somehow reminded us of the incredible Stunner selling of WWE Hall of Famer Scott Hall.

United States Champion

Soon after WrestleMania 38, WWE decided to cut off his first name and now he was only being addressed as Theory. He also won the WWE United States Championship soon after WrestleMania 38. It was also the beginning of his Championship success in WWE. He turned out to be a pretty excellent United States champion.

Money in the Bank

At Money in the Bank he dropped the WWE United States Championship to Bobby Lashley. On the same event he was added into the Money in the Bank ladder match, he was not scheduled to compete in this match previously. He shocked the entire world when he won the Money in the Bank ladder match.

Worst Money in the Bank cash in Ever

Fans were a little confused if this was the right move. But after Triple H became the Head of Creative of WWE, it looked like he wanted to stop his big push. He cashed his Money in the Bank contract on Seth Rollins and for the first time in WWE history, someone cashed in the Money in the Bank contract for a mid card championship and not a World championship.

Second United States Championship Win

Not only that, he also failed to cash it in successfully. Ultimately he turned out to be the worst Money in the Bank cash in ever in WWE history. Triple H faced massive criticism after this booking decision. But soon after his failed cash in he won the United States Championship at Survivor Series event and it was a triple threat match which also included Bobby Lashley.

By this time Triple H decided to restore his full name of Austin Theory and after his failed cash in he also stopped using his selfie obsessed character. After he became the United States champion this time, WWE built him pretty excellently and he defeated some of the biggest names of the promotion to keep on retaining the Championship.

Match with John Cena at WrestleMania 39

At WrestleMania 39 he got the biggest opponent of his career when he was challenged by his childhood Idol John Cena. He defeated John Cena to retain the championship and it was a huge push for him. He retained the championship for 258 days and finally he dropped it to Rey Mysterio recently in an episode of Smackdown.

Current Days

We must say that it was a questionable decision since he had such an amazing reign of the title and he lost the title in a less than 2 minutes match. He should have dropped it in at least a pay per view event and it should have been a properly built feud. He might have dropped the title but he is big push did not end and we are pretty sure that an excellent future is waiting for him in WWE.
