Austin Theory attempted to take a shot at John Cena this weekend days after winning the United States Championship. Theory has often cited Cena as one of his greatest inspirations and uploaded a video of himself from a live event with the US title. He walked up to a young Cena fan in the front row, pointed at the gold and said, “See that? That makes me better than John Cena.” He then tweeted directly at Cena by writing, “Happy Birthday, @JohnCena! Sorry I’m a better U.S. Champ than you…”
Everyone understands that you have far more talent, strength, and gifts than I ever had. Don’t apologize for that. Ever. An apology should come 20 years from now if you fail to provide the EFFORT needed to turn your potential into your legacy. I hope that day never comes. 🥃 https://t.co/3apKiTwgDw
Now that his push is in full effect, source states he anticipates bigger & bigger things for Theory. A person with direct knowledge states Vince “sees a young John Cena in Theory” and will “give the kid everything he needs to be successful”
