"What does Triple H have against him?" - Twitter erupts in laughter after Austin Theory fails to cash in his MITB briefcase on the US Title

Theory no longer has the Money in the Bank briefcase

According to fans, Austin Theory may have set a record for the worst Money in the Bank cash-in of all time. The youngest Mr. Money in the Bank decided to cash in his briefcase on United States Champion Seth Rollins in the main event of RAW after Bobby Lashley took the latter out.

While things seemed to go his way, Bobby Lashley returned and took Austin out with The Hurt Lock. Despite the latter making it on time before the 10-count, he fell victim to The Stomp, thus ending any title hopes.

It goes without saying that WWE fans were laughing over how things played out. The consensus seems to be that Triple H is not a fan of the 25-year-old, and this is how the Twitterverse reacted to Austin Theory's failed cash-in:

Austin Theory has undoubtedly fallen down the pecking order post-Vince McMahon

Since late July 2022, Austin Theory has undoubtedly received a different treatment. While there were reports that WWE management still viewed him as a future top star, the evidence in the last few months has said otherwise.

With that said, it's hard to say that Theory isn't a "Triple H guy." There might be bigger plans for him down the line.

If Theory ends up facing a star like John Cena at WrestleMania 39 next year, then it simply means that WWE was delaying his push.

One thing seemed certain - he was never going to cash in on Roman Reigns. However, fans aren't thrilled about the alternative angle that just played out on RAW.
