Identity Of Mystery Attacker At Survivor Series Revealed

Posted on
CM Punk Survivor Series 2012

The main event of this year’s WWE Survivor Series saw The Vision, Brock Lesnar, Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul score a huge win over World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns and The Usos in the Men’s WarGames match.

The closing moments featured a hooded figure climbing into the cage and hitting Punk with a superkick, followed by a Curb Stomp. That opening allowed Bron Breakker to lay out The Best In The World with a Spear to seal the victory.

PWInsider Elite and Fightful Select are reporting that the mystery attacker was Austin Theory, who was quietly brought backstage during the main event.

Theory was rumored to join The Vision by helping Seth Rollins retain the World Heavyweight Championship against CM Punk at Saturday Night’s Main Event earlier this month. However, those plans were dropped after Rollins’ shoulder injury at Crown Jewel, which led to Punk beating Jey Uso for the vacant title instead.

There were also internal talks of Theory joining Rollins, Lesnar, Breakker and Bronson Reed for this year’s Men’s WarGames match, but Rollins’ injury forced WWE to reshuffle the lineup.

On the Survivor Series post-show, Paul Heyman stated that he doesn’t know who the mystery attacker was.
