00:00So Logan's got his back from Ibiza.
00:22The following contest is scheduled for one more.
00:26Introducing person from San Diego, California.
00:31Waking at 175 pounds, WWE Hall of Famer, Rey Mysterio.
00:45Remember, it was just a few weeks ago, Mysterio was in the midst of fighting off Logan Paul when the masked mystery man stopped him.
00:51Now Rey hits Austin Perry, he was under that mask, one on one.
00:54Rey against the newest member of the Vision.
00:56Next.
00:57And you need all the help you can get when you're taking on the living legend himself, the diminutive but brilliant Rey Mysterio.
01:12Who the hell gets in the Hall of Fame before they've even retired Joe Test? Not many.
01:15He is one of one. He is just extraordinarily special.
01:19I suppose we could throw Nikki Bella in there too, who we saw earlier.
01:23Yeah.
01:24However, she kind of retired and then came out of retirement, so I think that's not quite the same.
01:30Of course, Nikki was part of our Women's World Championship Triple Threat match earlier tonight when Stephanie Becker was able to retain.
01:37What a way to start Raw off. That was a major, major accomplishment again for Stephanie Becker in a banger of a match for this man.
01:44Rey Mysterio knows a thing or two about banger matches.
01:51I'm sure he saved something pretty special for Austin Theory tonight.
02:01Another great reception for one of the greatest careers you will ever see.
02:06Kia Center here in Orlando sold out 13,611 on the final Raw of 2025.
02:31A week away from the one-year anniversary show here on Netflix.
02:41It'll be in Brooklyn and it is an absolutely stellar card headlined by the World Heavyweight Championship between CM Punk and Ron Raker.
02:51Speaking of the vision.
02:54What a year it has been here on Netflix.
02:56So many epic moments we've witnessed.
02:59And we might top them all with that show next week, the one-year anniversary.
03:04Gold on the line, stacked card.
03:07And it just gets more and more exciting by the minute.
03:11The seating chart.
03:22It's not etiquette.
03:26It's positioning.
03:28They came for a challenge.
03:31I came to remind them that this game starts and ends with the Queen.
03:40One of the best female performers of all time.
03:44Long live the Queen.
03:51WrestleMania Vegas.
03:53Hey, all the WWE podcast guests week after week are sensational, but we want to draw extra attention to Cody Rhodes and what do you want to talk about podcast because this is special.
04:20John Cena has given simply this interview since his final match, and it is so worthy of your attention.
04:28That is available now.
04:29WWE podcast John Cena and Cody Rhodes after what went down in Washington, D.C.
04:35Wade, each of Rey Mysterio's last two matches have ended in a loss at the hands of Austin Theory, right?
04:47You go back to December 15th against Logan Paul.
04:50Austin Theory interferes.
04:51And then December 22nd in the tag team match when Theory pinned Mysterio to get the win in that tag team match when he was teamed up with CM Punk.
05:00We'll be right back to you soon.
05:02Jordan is here next week.
05:04We'll be right back to your list.
05:06And then of course we're on the show.
05:21So I try to produce my moves.
05:26This is me, and me alone.
05:28And his opponent from Atlanta, Georgia,
05:32weighing in for 220 pounds,
05:36representing The Vision, Austin Theory.
05:44Well, that ring entrance just screams of what he's been saying now.
05:49I take now.
05:51Wade Austin Theory passed his somewhat audition
05:55for The Vision right a week ago.
05:57He's one of them now.
05:58This is a different version of Austin Theory,
06:01from masked man to this level of focus and intensity
06:05as part of The Vision.
06:08New music, new mindset, new Austin Theory,
06:13a complete shift in the personality of Austin Theory.
06:19This is a guy who for years has been talked about
06:22as having all the promise and potential in the world,
06:26but you always sense there was a little something missing.
06:30But now with the guidance of Paul Heyman,
06:33the backup of The Vision, one of whom, of course,
06:36includes Logan Paul, and now this cutthroat,
06:40take now mindset of Austin Theory, the sky really is the limit.
06:45I like everything I'm seeing from Austin Theory.
06:51Look at that scowl as he's opposite the Hall of Famer.
06:54Theory's first official match as part of The Vision.
06:58Back off. Back off. Listen to me.
07:00Come on. Turn it out of there.
07:02Of course, there was a conversation that we heard in the locker room
07:05with Paul Heyman discussing, hey, you're part of this vision.
07:09You're never alone. You're always supported.
07:11And Logan Paul stepped forward and said,
07:13I'd be happy to have his back.
07:15Oh, what a slam right into that corner.
07:16I mean, the velocity and that arc of his back
07:20as he hit the turnbuckle.
07:21Rey Mysterio took some damage there.
07:23And now the backbreaker.
07:25And Theory delivering more and more against Mysterio
07:28as Rey able to break free.
07:30Rey's running struggling in the early going,
07:32which is the power of Austin Theory, of course,
07:34added to by that movement of Theory that has done the damage.
07:37But that is exactly why Rey Mysterio...
07:41Oh, man.
07:42...stopped me in my tracks
07:44and completely stopped Rey Mysterio in his tracks, too.
07:49Just as he delivers the Rana
07:52and was seeking some momentum,
07:55the intensity and power of Theory is delivered.
07:58That's... Come on, Terry.
08:00And this is it. It's a completely different motivation
08:03for Austin Theory at this point.
08:04And you know, when you're part of the vision,
08:06you have to continually deliver the guts.
08:10And Austin Theory in the early going certainly doing that
08:13and once again turning it around on Rey Mysterio.
08:17Tripping him up and driving him right into that corner.
08:20And now Rey's got him in position.
08:22Yeah, top man to outmaneuver. Watch out, Austin.
08:25Master of the 619 on Theory.
08:27Rolls out of the way and gets out onto the floor.
08:29Two men completely trying to outmaneuver one another.
08:33But that power came out of Theory being a big equalizer.
08:37And then onto the apron.
08:40Once again attacking that spine of Rey Mysterio
08:44who is in big trouble at the hands of Austin Theory.
08:48And then onto the head of the head of Rey Mysterio into the post.
09:03And then the spine right onto the apron.
09:05Yeah.
09:06That is concerning.
09:07Just a devastating flurry of moves from Austin Theory and there's no let up.
09:12Unlike the Austin Theory of old, the one we all remember.
09:16He would have been gloating.
09:17He would have been posing.
09:18He would have been smug, mean mugging at the camera.
09:20Yes.
09:21This is an Austin Theory who is all business right now.
09:25And so much more devastating for it.
09:28You get the sense that he looks to put it away right here.
09:31You get the sense that he's really reflected on things.
09:33The time away.
09:34Came back as the mystery masked man at Survivor Series.
09:40Impacted the end of war games.
09:43And then earned the trust of the vision.
09:46Yeah.
09:47And here's what I like about Theory.
09:48This guy has achieved some massive things in his career.
09:51Former Mr. Money in the Bank.
09:52Former United States Champion.
09:53Beat John Cena at WrestleMania.
09:55Yes.
09:56But for Austin Theory, where he sees his career, that was simply not enough.
10:01He expects more.
10:02He expects...
10:03Look at Rey!
10:04Look at Rey right here!
10:05The top of the industry.
10:07And one way to go about that is to start putting away people as established.
10:12As important, as good, as Rey Mysterio.
10:17And right now, this has been 90% Austin Theory.
10:20And Rey cannot get a foothold in this match whatsoever.
10:28I'll tell you right now, Joe Tess.
10:30Paul Heyman does not make mistakes, does he?
10:33When he lets someone in the fold, it's because he knows they are damn good and they can deliver the goods.
10:38Yeah, now you're seeing a more fully formed vision.
10:41Get him out of that corner, Theory!
10:43Listen to Logan Paul.
10:44Logan Paul asking, are we watching his boy?
10:46We certainly are.
10:47The whole world is watching Austin Theory now.
10:50I'll tell you right now, someone as dominant as this in a match against Rey Mysterio would get pretty excited normally, pretty pleased with yourself.
11:06Wow, I'm doing real well against this absolute legend.
11:11No hint of a smile on the face of Austin Theory.
11:15There will not be a smile, perhaps, until he gets a dob here.
11:19He'll be black.
11:20Kids go high!
11:38Go!
11:41Go!
11:42Go!
11:43Go!
11:44Go!
11:45Go!
11:45Go!
11:46Go!
11:47Go!
11:47there's logan paul out there supporting austin theory now officially part of the vision he's
11:59in control against ray mystere remember cm punk was backstage near the locker room offering help
12:05to ray tonight ray said he could handle it he's got connections too and as you can see what he
12:11doesn't have is any momentum against austin theory and what he doesn't have is barely any
12:16offense against austin theory in this entire match and there's been absolutely no letter from theory
12:21but massively over committing on that charge and ray with his incredible movement just about getting
12:29out of the way and maybe a chance to turn the tie with that west coast pop and here it is from the
12:35hall of famer ray mysterio simply unmatched when it comes to movement the ageless hall of famer
12:43mysterio a week ago was in a tag team match with cm punk when fury knocked him off the top
12:52turnbuckle and then connected with the stomp to pick up that victory and now singles action has
12:58him oh had him right where he wanted him and now theory looking for the win right here and ray able
13:03to get that shoulder up and i was just gonna say austin theory when he was in control that's one thing
13:08we learned a lot about theory there but when you are under the attack deep into a match how well can
13:15you bounce back well austin theory just answered that question too this guy's looking like the
13:20complete package here he is in a fully completed vision with now austin theory added into the mix
13:27it's incredible what has been put together
13:30just continuing to do damage to that lower back weight and it has been the spine that has really
13:38been the target it's been a full body workout for ray mysterio but that lower back oh god look at ray
13:46always finding a way now ray mysterio is one of one who can pull out something like this after the kind of
13:55beating he's taken that is why the career has been so legendary and will never be matched
14:01ddt you can see the effect it's had on theory
14:05i'm just tying theory up in knots here oh could this be the 619 opportunity is delivered on oh god
14:15this has got a big ball logan paul oh logan paul and the bell rings as logan paul interferes with the
14:27match just when mysterio had it in place it was never about the match joe test this was a bonding
14:34oh look at this come on now as paul heyman put it a chance to grow those bonds with the newest
14:40member this is why punk said whoa no
14:47he's back
14:48well this is exactly why ray mysterio said i got some connections don't worry punk penta who we
15:01haven't seen since he got injured in the last time is now tournament he had to stick up for his good
15:07buddy just in the nick of time oh all the reports of the shoulder injury bow did you see that i did
15:15logan paul how about a 619 for you
15:21penta clears them oh it is so good to have penta back here on raw
15:37well a huge shock to the vision a message attempted to be sent to ray mysterio in physical
15:50fashion but for ray's sake thank goodness for the return of the incredible penta
