Rumor Roundup: Paul Heyman Responsible For Recent NXT Call-Up, Plans For A Title Match At MITB, More

1) Paul Heyman Responsible For Recent NXT Call-Up

Austin Theory has appeared on the past few episodes of Monday Night RAW. He is currently a part of the stable involving Andrade, Angel Garza, and Zelina Vega.

Many fans have been wondering if Theory is going to remain on the WWE main roster full time or if he is going to be sent back to NXT in a few weeks.

According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio, Theory has officially been called up to the WWE main roster. This is a decision that was made by Paul Heyman:

Yeah, it’s a call-up. Well, this isn’t Vince [McMahon]. This is definitely [Paul] Heyman, okay and he was brought up because they needed somebody for WrestleMania and they were impressed enough. It is too early. Way too early but those are the breaks. They like the idea of the three-person stable with Zelina Vega, Andrade, [Angel] Garza and Austin Theory. So there you go.

My Take:

  • Talk about being in the right place at the right time. Theory had basically just gotten to NXT before he was called up. I haven’t been wowed by Theory yet but I trust Heyman that he sees something in him. I am also digging the new faction with Theory, Andrade, Garza, and Vega.
