Austin Theory has returned to NXT television.
The last fans saw of Austin Theory, he was on WWE Raw alongside Seth Rollins and Murphy as part of the greater good. Theory last appeared on the June 22 episode of Raw and then disappeared without a mention. He was called up from NXT just before WrestleMania 36.
On Wednesday, Theory popped up in NXT, confronting Bronson Reed in a backstage segment. Reed was none too please to see Theory, delivering a slap across the face.

It was not explained where Theory has been in the past two months. Seth Rollins recently told Sporting News that Theory was away dealing with "personal issues."
Theory was named in the Speaking Out movement for alleged misconduct. WWE never commented on his status.
