Austin Theory Says Losing The WWE US Title To Rey Mysterio Was A Screwjob

Rey Mysterio captured the WWE United States Championship from Austin Theory last week on SmackDown after Theory attacked Santos Escobar. 

In a new interview with WWE’s After The Bell podcast, Theory talked about the loss. 

I kinda see why he stepped up, I hurt his feelings. He’s a little jealous cause I beat him right after WrestleMania. That victory on Rey, I just beat John Cena, I’m a little sore but I’ll beat another legend. That’s where my mindset was.”

“Maybe I was a little too relaxed on SmackDown when [the title change] happened. I still think that was a screw job, but it is what it is. If anyone was going to beat me, It would have to be somebody like that because nobody can really beat Austin Theory.”
