Over the past few months, the WWE kingpin has taken an interest in the 24-year-old protege. One could liken it to Yoda and Luke Skywalker. Or maybe more Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine? <\/p>\n<p>Theory is soaking up any knowledge he can heading into <i>WrestleMania<\/i>. During night two of \u201cThe Most Stupendous Two-Night Event in <i>WrestleMania<\/i> History,\u201d the <i>Raw<\/i> superstar squares off with <i>SmackDown<\/i> commentator Pat McAfee. Theory got in the face and smacked the headset off the former NFL punter after McMahon <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>eared on <i>The Pat McAfee Show<\/i>. More physicality followed ahead of the big showdown. <\/p>\n<p>We caught up with Theory ahead of the biggest match of his career so far in Dallas. <\/p>\n<p><b>In 2020, you came in at the last minute to perform at a crowd-less <i>WrestleMania<\/i> 36. This year will be quite different for you.<\/b> <\/p>\n<p><b>Austin Theory: <\/b>I remember when I was told I would get to perform at <i>WrestleMania<\/i> 36. Just getting to see the sign and being inside the Performance Center was a very cool experience. At the same time, that was my first <i>WrestleMania<\/i>. Everybody knows <i>WrestleMania<\/i> is the biggest event compared to any show WWE does. It was one of those bittersweet moments. I\u2019m forever in the history books of <i>WrestleMania<\/i>, but everybody knows we didn\u2019t have that record-breaking attendance. This year. it\u2019s a lot to take in. <\/p>\n<p><b>You\u2019re in this unique spot of working with Vince McMahon on camera. What have you taken from this time?<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m in a position that anyone who aspired to do anything in WWE would be so honored to have. I understand just how big a deal the position I am in is. Just how crazy it is for me as a lifelong fan who grew up watching Mr. McMahon and the crazy things he did. It\u2019s cool to be put in a position to perform live television with him. The one thing I\u2019ve learned from him is this respectful aggressiveness. Showing you have that respect, but if you have an idea and are passionate about something, you have to use that aggressiveness to go after it. There are little tips as we perform that I take away from for sure. <\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1036985\" style=\"width: 1004px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1036985\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1036985 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-Vince-McMahon-WWE-Raw-645x370-1-994x570.png\" alt=\"Vince McMahon and Austin Theory \" width=\"994\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-Vince-McMahon-WWE-Raw-645x370-1-994x570.png 994w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-Vince-McMahon-WWE-Raw-645x370-1-450x258.png 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-Vince-McMahon-WWE-Raw-645x370-1-768x440.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-Vince-McMahon-WWE-Raw-645x370-1-570x327.png 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-Vince-McMahon-WWE-Raw-645x370-1.png 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 994px) 100vw, 994px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1036985\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">WWE<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>Fans got to see another side of Vince McMahon through his appearance on <i>The Pat McAfee Show<\/i>. From your vantage point, what do you think is the biggest misconception about him?<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>For me, there has always been the stigma of Vince McMahon that he is not nice or one-way about stuff. That it\u2019s his way or no way. From what I\u2019ve seen and my experience, he is on another level. All the hats he wears. He is so invested in everybody and somehow makes everything work. I think that\u2019s so crazy to see him doing it for that long and staying that sharp. If I have a question or see anybody have a question, and they want to talk to him, they always get an answer. They always get a conversation. I think that is so cool to really see the passion he still has for what he does. It hasn\u2019t left him at all. For me personally, it is cool to know this man\u2019s a billionaire and still working like he has a grand in his bank account. <\/p>\n<p><b>Through your work with The Way in NXT, you got to present more personality. How much of that time do you think helped in you getting the call to be drafted to <i>Raw<\/i> and be in the position you\u2019re in now?<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>The whole character in The Way was my idea. I basically always playing this serious wrestler. I was not really being myself. No matter what you do, you should be able to still show who you are and give an authentic feel. I think that is what makes you connect to any character. I was just supposed to be this bodyguard behind Johnny Gargano. I asked Johnny Gargano himself while we filmed this Christmas special if we could try something. He was like, \u201cSure!\u201d I just did my goofy comedy I like to do. Even in real life, I like to have a good time and make people laugh. Sure enough, it worked and they liked it. I think it gave me a huge opening. <\/p>\n<p><b>Do you feel the added weight of not only working alongside Vince McMahon but also having the trust to deliver a good match against Pat McAfee? Someone who is relatively inexperienced.<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>I think in WWE it\u2019s one of those things where it\u2019s the big leagues. Whether you are prepared or not, it\u2019s going to show. You are swimming with sharks. I think there is no level after WWE. This is it\u2026For me, I don\u2019t\u2019 get too much into my head. I\u2019m pretty confident in what I can do. You can only be the best version of yourself. That\u2019s where I keep my head. Who knows how this finally ends? I\u2019m just excited. I expect the unexpected. I\u2019m coming in with my head up and staying confident. <\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1036987\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1036987\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1036987 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-1014x570.jpg\" alt=\"Austin Theory \" width=\"1014\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-1014x570.jpg 1014w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-450x253.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-1420x798.jpg 1420w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber-570x320.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Austin-Theory-elimination-chamber.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1014px) 100vw, 1014px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1036987\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">WWE<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><b>You\u2019re known for taking these epic selfies. What\u2019s the key to a good selfie?<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>I think if you\u2019re trying to go with the atmosphere, you really gotta stretch that arm out. You might not have arms as good as Austin Theory, but it\u2019s okay. This is just a starting tutorial. You got to reach out and make sure you\u2019re getting the whole background. You also have to get your opponent. You have to make sure they are in it too. That\u2019s most important. As long as you get the opponent and this face, it\u2019s a good time. <\/p>\n<p><b>What do you see yourself for the coming year after <i>WrestleMania<\/i>? Given the spot you\u2019re in now, what was impossible may be possible now.<\/b> <\/p>\n<p>The way you put that, I think something is possible now. John Cena was always that guy for me since I was eight years old. Just being inspired by me and everything he did. The one who got me into WWE. And all the crazy things happening right now and how quick they are happening, me versus John Cena. I\u2019m not saying it would be at <i>WrestleMania<\/i>. Although that would be the ultimate cool thing I do see it happening. Austin Theory versus John Cena. I\u2019m not sure where and when, but I\u2019m not going to say it\u2019s not going to happen. <\/p>\n<p><b><i>WrestleMania<\/i> 38, April 2 and 3, Peacock <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>WWE <i>Raw<\/i>, Mondays, 8.7c, USA Network <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>WWE <i>SmackDown<\/i>, 8\/7c, Fox <\/b><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
