Austin Theory was forced to take an F5 from the top of a pod from Brock Lesnar at Elimination Chamber back in 2022, but it seems that this wasn&#8217;t the original plan for the match. 



While talking to Chris Van Vliet, Theory revealed that AJ Styles was originally the one that the spot was meant for but after he took it onto a crash pad he swore and refused.

&#8220;Alright, this is a story. So I remember the night before, we’re at rehearsals and everybody’s there, AJ Styles is on Brock Lesnar’s shoulders and there’s a crash pad down on the floor. Vince steps up behind me and he goes ‘I want you to take that.’ I was just looking and as soon as he says it Brock throws AJ to the pad. AJ lands on his side. Anybody who knows AJ, he doesn’t cuss. If you catch him cussing, even on TV, that man is angry. But he goes, ‘What the frick? That’s stupid I’m not taking that!’&#8221;

&#8220;Then Brock comes climbing down, and Vince goes, ‘Brock, go back up, Theory is gonna take it.’ I was like, oh man. I’m just walking through the motions. I’m climbing up the cage. I’m just going up, and I’m just panicking. Brock picks me up. I’m just like, now my whole world has gone from here to sideways, and now I’m all the way up on this pod. I’m just like, I don’t know, because that pad is not going to be there. But I was like, here we go.&#8221;

&#8220;Then Brock’s like, you ready? And I’m like, yep. And he tosses me. And the way I was tossed, I landed on my feet on the pad. So in my mind, I’m just like, Okay, well if somehow he throws me like this again and I can land on my feet, I’ll be fine.&#8221;
