...without Roman Reigns there.

It's becoming more and more obvious by the week that Triple H doesn't see Austin Theory the same way Vinnie Mac did. Unless he's playing the long game, then the new creative chief might decide to have Theory cash his Money In The Bank chips in for something other than WWE's Undisputed top prize.

Yep, that means Theory would cash in MITB for either the United States or Intercontinental Titles. This nightmare seems so silly, but it's one yours truly hasn't been able to shake ever since finding out that Reigns won't be in Philly. WWE could view this as an easy way to get people talking post-Extreme Rules.

Austin willingly trading his contract for one of the secondary straps would make him look idiotic, but it'd also either send him right back to square one (by beating Bobby Lashley) or ruin Gunther's own momentum on the IC side.
