WWE Superstar Austin Theory recently appeared on the INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet interview, where he addressed whether he took anything personally. He explained that after reviewing the promo, he understood it was all part of the character.

Theory stated, “I think he just wants to see me and it’s hard for me to just say exactly what he means. I kind of see where it is and if people can, kind of pick up on what I’m trying to say, but I think he just sees more of who I really am being displayed in a different way.”
