#2. Austin Theory takes a step back on RAW

Austin Theory faced Finn Balor on RAW this week, one that many fans felt would end in the favor of the 24-year-old. After all, he is the focus of WWE right now and not Balor.

However, in a good bit of storytelling, the veteran humbled Theory with a big victory over him, shocking the young superstar. It even led to him attacking The prince from behind again to make a statement.

Later on the show, Austin Theory met with Vince McMahon, who openly said that he "loves" firing people. It was a bit weird to see that, but he gave him another chance at Finn Balor. It's another rematch that we will see next week on RAW - one where we expect Theory to pick up the win by hook or crook.

It could set up a Day 1 trilogy bout, or the two men could simply be left off the card and conclude their feud on the red brand. However, it looks to be a brief feud and not one that will last too long.
