I ran around with this Money in the Bank contract literally knowing that I would
become the Universal Champion one day.
And what do you do when that's what you think about every day and it's gone?
In a split second, it's gone, and I had a plan.
It was Seth Rollins on his back,
me becoming the brand new United States Champion, a two time at that.
So today, it's Survivor Series, and I'm stepping in
the ring in a triple threat with two former WWE champions.
I like that, I like how that sounds.
Because tonight, I'm gonna prove to two
former WWE champions why I am the now, right now matters.
Not tomorrow, not yesterday, right now.
Because I'm gonna become a two time United States Champion.
And it doesn't matter how Seth Rollins feels about it.
It doesn't matter how Bobby Lashley feels about it.
And it doesn't matter how the WWE universe feels about it.
There's not 1% of me that thinks I don't got it.
I got it all, it's mine, tonight is all day and
that's me, Austin Theory.
We're gonna go to the bump.
I've been on the bump a few times but we've never had a live audience.
So this should be interesting.
>> Second floor.
>> Second floor is where the bump is.
>> So without further ado, please bring on the former yet
youngest United States Champion in WWE history, Austin Theory!
>> [APPLAUSE]
>> Judging by the crowd's reaction,
how is Boston treating you so far?
[LAUGH] >> Do you really think that Austin Theory
cares how anybody feels about him?
>> [LAUGH] he's changed his tone real quick.
>> For all of you out here, you are gonna go home right here in Boston,
Massachusetts.
And you are gonna watch,
watch me become a two time United States champion because I'm that good.
You think I give a damn if John Cena's from here?
Cuz I don't, I'm better than him.
And I'm gonna show each and every one of you, Bobby Lashley, Seth Rollins,
you're all the same.
And me, I'm going straight to the damn top.
>> All right.
[MUSIC]
>> It gets me excited because I meant every word, every word.
The first time I won the United States title I feel I was,
I don't know just trying to figure myself out.
I had a lot going on but I feel like now I've really set my sights on what
I need to do and how I need to get things done.
So, for me, winning this a second time is really gonna
show people Austin Theory ain't nobody to mess with.
Tonight is definitely about redemption.
Tonight is about putting myself on the map and
letting people know that I am a player, a game changer.
I'm at the top level and they're gonna realize that tonight and
that's what I'm gonna do.
That's what I showed up to do,
that's why I woke up today because I can do this all day.
And every single time I go out there, I let the people know why I am the now.
And tonight the United States champion is sitting right in front of you,
Austin Theory.
[MUSIC]
>> [APPLAUSE] >> Theory is now United States champion!
>> Austin Theory did it!
>> Here is your winner and
the new United States
champion Austin Theory!
>> For the last few hours of today.
[MUSIC]
I said I was gonna do this.
[MUSIC]
And I did it, I made it happen.
I told everybody exactly who I am, Mr. All Day Austin Theory.
And what happened, we're in the now.
And the now is the new two time United States champion Austin Theory.
