Austin Theory then talked about his experience of working with The Rock prior to “WWE SmackDown” going on air. Theory stated that he was ushered into a bus along with The Rock, Triple H, and a few others to figure out the details of the promo, and he remembered the range of emotions that were running through his mind at the time.

“Next thing I know, I’m with Hunter, Triple H, and Nick Khan, and we’re all walking outside. The buses are there and this black car pulls up, like, six people get out, it’s so like … it’s just insane to me. Rock gets out and I’m like, ‘This is crazy.’ He’s like the size of a blimp, he looks insane, I’m like ‘What is going on?'” recalled Theory.
Theory said that they got onto a bus to discuss the details of the promo, and recalled the surreal nature of working with The Rock.
“He was kind of telling me, like, you know, he’s like, ‘Man, when we get out there, it’s going to be magic. Just feel it. It’s going to be good.’ And I kid you not, being out there with him, he did like these Jedi mind tricks, like, with his eyes. I just knew when to go, when to say something and just feeling it with him, you know. And he would just … I don’t know, just with his eyes like, ‘Boom,’ and I was like, ‘Oh, man.’ It was such an experience and, like, I just felt like so — just on top of my game.”

While he is elated to have worked with The Rock, Theory is slightly miffed about one aspect of the segment: he’s upset his Yeezys were thrown into the crowd.
