WWE superstar, Austin Theory, has had an interesting singles run on the Raw brand. Recently, he featured in a segment with WWE chairman, Vince McMahon, where he got slapped on last week’s Monday Night Raw.

However, this slap doesn’t mean that the WWE management is making another goofy character for the WWE Universe. According to veteran wrestling journalist, Dave Meltzer, McMahon sees great potential in Austin Theory.

And by the looks of it, Meltzer seems right about the situation. This seems true as several NXT superstars have been called upon the main roster, but none of them shared a segment with Vince McMahon.

Dave Meltzer reported in the ‘Wrestling Observer Newsletter‘ that Theory got so much TV time because this young talent gave a brilliant match against Big E on Raw.

And the teen demographic of the WWE Universe absolutely loved seeing an upcoming superstar producing a watchable match with the WWE champion.

Given the ‘viewership crisis (thanks to AEW) of WWE, this seems like a good idea for the WWE creative team to push Austin Theory and give fans what they want,

Will a segment with Vince McMahon help Austin Theory win a major title soon?

There have been WWE superstars who have become the WWE/World Heavyweight Champions in under four months since they debuted for WWE, like Brock Lesnar and Sheamus.

However, is WWE looking to do the same with Austin Theory? WWE portrayed superstars like Lesnar and Sheamus as a force to reckon with; however, Austin just got slapped by the owner of the company.

The immediate contender for Big E’s championship is Seth Rollins and with Edge back into the mix, chances for Theory to get near a title look distant.

However, mid-card championships always work well for newcomers, and maybe the WWE Universe will get behind the young talent. However, given the fickle nature of the business, this whole idea could be dropped.

However, the current scenario for the young Austin looks great.
