WWE Royal Rumble 2022: Predicting All 30 Entrants

25. Austin Theory

The Fiend Royal Rumble

That Vince McMahon is literally grooming Austin Theory for future success on WWE television at the moment tells us that the promotion wants to do something with Theory.

For now, that is. These things are always fluid in WWE and McMahon is as unpredictable as ever. The boss might wake up with grand designs of making Theory a star one morning, then change his mind the next.

Still, McMahon has openly mentioned the possibility of Theory headlining 'Mania on television. That won't happen, but Austin will be A Thing in the Rumble.
