10 Candidates For WWE's Bizarre Post-WrestleMania 36 Push
9. Austin Theory
WWE went big on Lacey Evans last year, who removed the bloom from Becky Lynch's rose with expert gardening skills.
A fiery and proficient enough babyface now, as a caricature of a heel in 2019, she didn't know her ar*ehole from her elbow, which she held to her nose and deemed "nasty". WWE will push a talent when they are nowhere near ready, provided they have the right look.
Enter Austin Theory.
They like him already, and with good reason. He has clear presence and star potential. His level of experience is dwarfed by entire generations of talent in the Performance Center, but their problem collectively is that they don't have such kickin' bods. So he gets the push. They can't catch their break. He can't catch.
A main roster guy already, under these bizarre new circumstances, it's an interesting and ironic scenario. Should this push continue, Austin will become the first performer in WWE history to get a push with absolutely zero indication as to whether it is warranted. Not one live main roster fan has watched him work.
He can only ever be Austin Theoretically Over.
