Paul Heyman believes one member of Vision has the potential to reach the level of Shawn Michaels.
Right now, the faction is dealing with problems after Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed suffered injuries. The timing is terrible, especially with WrestleMania 42 only a few weeks away. Still, Vision has Logan Paul and Austin Theory holding things down.
Heyman, who speaks for the master mind behind The Vision. He recently made a bold statement about Theory. He compared him to Shawn Michaels and said Theory has all the tools to become a top star in WWE.
Paul Heyman Says Austin Theory Could Reach Elite Level
Speaking on Busted Open Radio, Heyman compared Theory to a young Shawn Michaels during his time in The Rockers. “He’s Shawn Michaels when Shawn was in The Rockers… my apologies to Austin Theory if that’s too low of a bar to set for him.”
Heyman questioned what Theory is missing as a performer. “If that kid can’t figure out the things that he’s doing wrong and accentuate all the things that he’s already doing right, then please tell me who can? What doesn’t he have? He has decent size and he’s only getting bigger.”
“He has tremendous discipline. He’s not one of these guys that is out all night in Europe at the Euro Trash rave in Paris at 4:30 in the morning. He’s in the gym at 4:30 in the morning and he’s back in the gym as soon as the matches are over. He’s highly intelligent. He speaks to the youth. He looks great and he can work his balls off.”
However, Heyman believes Theory still needs to understand one key difference. “Once he figures out the difference between a really good match and a money match, once he understands that being out of character while in character and relaxing within the skin of that character, Austin Theory is going to be untouchable.” [H/T: WrestlePurists]
