It is unclear just why Austin Theory has seemingly been moved from Monday Night Raw back down to NXT. However, it does seem that this move could breathe new life into Theory's character as he did seem rejuvenated in his most recent performance against Bronson Reed.

Theory is another young star who has enormous potential should he stays out of trouble. While he was lost in the shuffle on RAW, Theory seemed like he was back to his arrogant self on Tuesday night. He showed glimpses of why he became the youngest ever EVOLVE Champion at just 21 years old.

A feud between Theory and Balor has serious potential as the two superstars have a number of similarities. Theory is clearly the younger, less polished version but Balor could undoubtedly bring the best out of the young man and produce a great NXT match between the two. If a young arrogant Theory fully dedicates himself to finally win the title, this has the potential to be a great feud later.
