EVOLVE Champion Austin Theory made his NXT in-ring debut at a house show in Daytona, FL Thursday night.
Theory lost a “good back and forth match” to Bronson Reed, according to JJ Williams.
Before the match, Theory, who plays a cocky heel character in EVOLVE, cut a promo “running down” the previous match (Cameron Grimes vs. Tehuti Miles).
