The closing moments of this year’s Elimination Chamber premium live event saw one of the craziest bumps in the history of the Elimination Chamber match, when Brock Lesnar delivered an F5 onto Austin Theory off the top of one of the pods.
Theory recently spoke about the moment on Instagram with WWE Deutschland, where he reflected on what he was thinking as he was taking the move.
He said:
“Yeah, I don’t think the human body is supposed to spin like the top of a helicopter. Yeah, I don’t know. I’m just like, ‘This doesn’t feel right,’ that’s all I know. I was like, ‘And here we are. Okay.’ Have you ever seen the funny videos where they’re like, ‘And at this moment, he realized he [f*cked] up.’ That was me. That’s where time paused and I was like, ‘This is it.'”
Theory continued on, speaking about his reaction to learning that he’d be working on screen with Vince McMahon. He said:
“It’s amazing. I remember the first time I found out we were gonna do anything together at work together, I was nervous because I’m like, there’s no bigger stat I feel like in WWE than Mr. McMahon and when it comes to sports-entertainment as a whole, he’s definitely the first on that Mount Rushmore and to me, that’s like all going through my head when I gotta go sit down with him and we have to shoot this promo and especially being live, it’s a lot of pressure but I think over the time, just learning from him and really knowing what he wants and what he’s looking for and just his, you know, mentorship and him helping mold me and understand how the WWE works, it’s awesome and I have no complaints about it whatsoever.”
Theory was reportedly set to get involved in the angle involving Vince McMahon and Pat McAfee heading into WrestleMania 38, but the angle may have changed, as Theory did not appear on the Pat McAfee Show with McMahon last night.
