Austin Theory has excuses for losing his United States Championship.
On Friday’s edition of SmackDown, Rey Mysterio captured the WWE United States Championship from Austin Theory after Theory made it impossible for Santos Escobar to compete after multiple sneak attacks.
In a new interview with WWE’s After The Bell podcast, Theory would discuss his title loss to Mysterio.
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.”

We will have to wait and see if Theory can be able to defeat Mysterio, should the two men rematch in the future.
