Austin Theory was a well-known figure in the Independent scene prior to joining WWE. In the years between 2017 and 2019, the former US Champion wrestled for Evolve Wrestling.
He made his promotional debut against Darby Allin and quickly hired Gigi Dolin (also known as Priscilla Kelly), Darby’s ex-wife, to serve as his assistant. Austin Theory’s ascent to fame on the Independent circuit was greatly aided by Gigi.
The pair’s on-screen chemistry before they moved to WWE, was recently highlighted by Twitter user @WrestlinRealest, who recently shared a few vintage photos of them.

Never forget WWE bought Evolve to get Austin Theory, signed some people from the company and then released them

Yeah tbh it was actually really good. He went on a losing streak and she kind of awoke the beast inside him. That’s how he broke out and became the star!!
