Austin Theory finally breaks silence after 148 days

Austin Theory has finally broken his silence after 148 days. The former U.S. champion shocked fans on RAW after he was revealed as the man behind the mask who had been helping The Vision since Survivor Series.

During the main event of the show, which saw Rey Mysterio take on Logan Paul, the masked man made his presence felt once again. He attacked Mysterio with a stomp, allowing The Maverick to pick up the win.

CM Punk then rushed to the ring for the aid of the Master of 619, causing the masked man to retreat in the crowd. Then he slowly pulled down his mask, and the fans were shocked to see Theory.

While this got everyone talking about what's next, Austin Theory also broke his silence on the big reveal in a post on X (Twitter).

"Mask Off," he simply wrote.

Paul Heyman wanted Austin Theory in The Vision for a reason

When the masked man made his first appearance at Survivor Series, it was reported that Austin Theory would be revealed as the mystery man.

Dave Meltzer from Wrestling Observer Newsletter (WON) then reported that Paul Heyman wanted to bring in the former tag team champion into The Vision with the aim to make him a bigger star.

The report added that another reason why the Oracle wanted him in the faction is to take the pins in matches involving The Vision in order to protect Bronson Reed and Bron Breakker.

After Logan Paul, Theory marks another addition to the stable that is coming into its own since Seth Rollins was removed.
