Whether it’s on the silver screen, teaching Michael B. Jordan the art of throwing a real punch in Creed III, or swaying the fans with his theatrics inside the ropes of the WWE ring, Terence Crawford never fails to make an everlasting impression. He once again seized headlines in the combat sports world with his brutal knockout power, but this time, on the receiving end, was Austin Theory. This week’s WWE SmackDown had ‘Bud’ standing tall on the fallen body of the WWE star, after delivering a deadly one-punch blow. It seems that’s not the end.

The American boxer was in the audience at WWE SmackDown last week, as the WWE show made its way to Omaha, his native place. As a huge WWE fan, for Crawford, 36, the event unfolded drastically when he handed Cody Rhodes a steel chair and ended up helping the latter pull a win against ‘A-Town Down Under’. This week, it was time to answer for his deeds, and the welterweight champion exactly did that. But with his right fist. What’s more?

The WWE uploaded the video of Crawford knocking out Austin Theory on its Instagram handle, and the 40-0 record holder turned to the comment section and left a message. The comment read, “all know how I get down hope you learned your lesson @austin_theory.”

Interestingly, in the same comment section, Grayson Waller hilariously lauded Austin Theory for taking a punch, first from Tyson Fury and now Crawford. For fans, Crawford’s appearances at WWE events sparked a debate about whether the Omaha native was gearing up for his WWE debut, following in the footsteps of Floyd Mayweather Jr., who once featured on WrestleMania 24.

Will Terence Crawford have a WWE match?

Crawford is currently not sure whether he is up for the task. In a conversation with Ariel Helwani, he disclosed, “I don’t know. I haven’t gotten into it that far.” Talking about his experience attending the WWE event, the southpaw boxer added, “The experience was second to none. It was electrifying. I was nervous doing it. It was different. It was dope and a good feeling. Not only was it my hometown, but it was WWE, a big platform.”

What has seemed to affect Crawford’s call is the high risk of injuries in the WWE. In addition, he has an upcoming fight against Israil Madrimov for the WBA super welterweight title. This is to move up the divisions, cement his legacy, and maybe do enough to attract the attention of Canelo Alvarez. However, he hasn’t denied venturing into WWE after he is done with boxing.
