Survivor Series 2025 may not have been one of the best events of the year, but it left many talking points. One of the biggest talking points had been the end of the men's War Games match. The match had been quite brutal, and it was indeed the best match of the event. But the main talking point had been the way the game ended.
With the babyface side closing in on the victory, a mystery man wearing a mask entered the ring and attacked CM Punk directly. Most surprisingly, the mystery man hit a Stomp on CM Punk's head, the move that had been the finisher of Seth Rollins, who is presently out of action with a shoulder injury.

Who was the masked man at Survivor Series 2025
The mystery man is definitely pretending to be Seth Rollins, but chances are very low that he actually turns out to be Seth Rollins. He suffered a shoulder injury at the Crown Jewel event, where he had a match with Cody Rhodes. Reports suggest that he will be out of action for quite a long time, and he may even miss WrestleMania 42.
A masked man attacked CM Punk during the War Games match at Survivor Series 2025
But if The Visionary's return to action at this stage is impossible, who was the masked man who cost the baby face side their big win inside the War Games match? One thing that needs to be cleared is that the identity of this mystery man has not been revealed yet. But since he hit the Stomp, it is quite obvious that the officials want the fans to be confused with the climax of Survivor Series 2025.

Austin Theory is reported to be the mystery man behind the mask
But who is this masked man really? According to reports from PW Insider, it is going to be the former WWE United States champion, Austin Theory. Some other sources are also claiming that the masked man at Survivor Series 2025 was other than Austin Theory, who has been out of action for quite a long time.
Theory had been a big project under Vince McMahon, and he wanted to put him over as the next face of WWE. But Triple H never liked him, and he completely buried him despite receiving a lot of criticism. He remained out of action for quite a long time due to an injury, and presently it looks like he will finally receive the much awaited big push. But even if it is a Theory, it is going to be his final opportunity to shine.
