No theory in 1934. In 1934 it was hypothesized that 2 photons could collide and form a positron and an electron, which is what these scientists have figured out how to test.

Oh so they proved a conjecture of a consequence from special relativity ... 

Not sure how this changes anything as we already had proofs for special relativity itself for quite a while ...

No one said it changes something and has massive implications, however proving concepts can never hurt.
