On this week's episode of WWE RAW, Austin Theory was revealed to be the mystery man who has been helping out The Vision lately. The masked individual first interfered in the Men's WarGames Match, taking out CM Punk to help the heels secure the victory.

He once again appeared on last week's episode of the red brand's show, attacking Rey Mysterio and LA Knight. The mystery man finally revealed his identity in the closing moments of this week's RAW, and it turned out to be none other than Austin Theory.

It's still unclear if Theory has officially joined The Vision or not, but considering how helpful he has been for the heel group, it is likely that he will become a member. That said, while it may look as simple as that on the surface, it could be a part of an elaborate plan by Seth Rollins to destroy The Vision from within.

Seth Rollins and Austin Theory have a history

For those who may not know, Austin Theory was once a disciple of Seth Rollins when the latter played the character of The Messiah in 2020. While their alliance didn't last long and the two were even involved in a rivalry in 2022, they may have reconciled to take down Paul Heyman and Co. After all, when Rollins formed The Vision, he included people with whom he had been at odds before.

Moreover, the 28-year-old was touted as the future of WWE before getting lost in the shuffle. There is no denying Theory's potential, something the six-time World Champion could use to his advantage.

The Vision seemingly didn't know who the masked man was

Interestingly, no member of the heel faction appeared to have any idea about who the mystery man was before the reveal on RAW. While they may have kept their mouths shut to deceive everyone, there is a chance that no one actually knew that Austin Theory was the one helping them out under a mask.

It is possible that Austin Theory may be secretly working with Seth Rollins and could be planning to get on The Vision's good side to gain its trust and feed inside information to The Visionary.

The heel group shockingly kicked The Architect out on the post-Crown Jewel episode of RAW. Rollins' wife, Becky Lynch, has warned Paul Heyman that he would be coming after The Oracle's allies upon his return. This could be the beginning of the six-time world champion's plan to exact revenge on The Vision.

That said, this scenario is only based on speculation, and nothing has been confirmed. It will be intriguing to see how this storyline progresses in the coming weeks.
