Before Fastlane arrives at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the build-up at SmackDown continues on the go-home edition. Dragon Lee started his blue brand run with an electric showdown against the former US Champion Austin Theory.
But before being leveled by the new main roster arrival, Theory pulled out his cocky persona taking digs at John Cena and The Rock.
Austin Theory made a cocky claim before tasting defeat at the hands of Dragon Lee tonight
The 26-year-old superstar looked quite poised and self-assured as usual before heading to the fight against Lee. Grabbing the mic, the Theory addressed himself as the 150 million hitman.
He also boasted about knocking down his childhood idol John Cena at WrestleMania. He also claimed how he also humbled Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson a couple of weeks ago. But his loudmouth was made to shut up by Dragon Lee.
During the match, Grayson Waller tried to help out Theory, but Cameron Grimes evened the odds and allowed Dragon Lee to pick up the win.
