Honestly wouldn’t shock me if they moved Theory to NXT if they were doing that a cash in against Breakker would have made more sense.

It’s Theory so who really cares, but maybe HHH isn’t that booking genius that everyone pretended like he was when NXT was good. lol Dude wants to push Kross as a main event talent. That by itself shows his genius

Just make MITB a Bi-annual thing with it still being a year to cash in. That way the MITB case becomes more special

honestly on MITB I think at this point they need to change it to what AEW does with the Casino Ladder Match and the Face of the Revolution Ladder match. No random cash in. You either get a title shot at a set date or you can pick the time but it's a match not a surprise on a weakened opponent.

I mean, they did say that MJF could cash in the Casino Ladder Match at any time, even if he has since elected to use it in a scheduled match.

Can we change his name to Austin Practice. Because in Practice he clearly sucks.

Kudos to Papa H cuz it was probably the right call. I figured they’d wait for Mania and have him lose it in bringing money in the bank back to WM.
At least now Theory can go somewhere without the MITB cuz that was not gonna fly. This and the Lashley stuff (and Seth) makes the U.S title look great.

Hopefully he goes crawling back to Gargano and they bring back The Way.

On one hand, this devalues a valid booking concept to the point of urgent rehabilitation the next time they choose to use it.
On the other… BAHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

It makes me happy when Hunter does things that directly say, "Vince was bad at everything and we hope he's sad about this".

I don’t often like to use the term “burial.” I tend to believe don’t assume malice when simple incompetence is a better explanation.
But THIS felt like a burial.

Hard for me to decide what was funnier. The failure of Theory's cash in, or the ending to the 24/7 title being so aimless that it couldn't even hit the trash can properly on its way out lol

Theory is the biggest idiot of all time. He could have at least cashed in on the NXT title. Cora Jade: "Hey, Theory, how's it going?" Theory: "What are you doing in Gorilla? Show's over." Cora: "I know, I was just thinking about you cashing in on Bron." Theory: "What about it?" Cora: "Remember what happened to Darby when he crossed me?" Theory: "Understood, I'll be good."

Austin looked like the dumbest twat on earth last night. I can only imagine the expression on his face after Trips told him of the booking plans that involved him cashing in on the secondary title and losing like that.
If they weren't going to have Austin at least fail during a cash in on Roman or during a Roman match, then have someone else win the case off the dude.

So yeah, I don't think that even in anyone's wildest dream did anyone believe that Theory was going to be the one to dethrone Reigns.
But the US Title?..Seriously?.
As others have said, going for the NXT title would have made a load more sense.
This company sometimes.

Honestly, he’d barely have been any better a chance of beating Breakker than he would’ve been of beating Reigns.

I would rather he put the Briefcase on the line against Otis, who should have never lost it - and then Otis wins and we get a banger of Otis vs Roman.

It's going to be a long time before Austin Theory gets taken serious as a potential main eventer ever again. I mean I've honestly never been impressed by him and he stinks of industry plant from his EVOLVE days.

To quote a certain tribal chief, daddy's gone.
He was better off cashing in on the NXT title a couple of weeks ago, at least he had a chance to win that one.
