The Authority decides to rehire the three fired wrestlers IF Bryan can beat Randy Orton. Which he DOES and does so in about two-three minutes (allowing them to sidestep Bryan not being fully healed). HHH and Steph are livid (especially since Bryan has a lawyer, mid-show, force them to sign legally binding contracts forcing them to honor the stip) and Bryan flees into the crowd. At which point, HHH and Steph take to the ring and basically bully/browbeat Orton for fucking up and losing BIG and in a humiliating fashion, which causes Orton to snap and turn on HHH and Steph taking a punt to the head to cement Orton turning on them is legit.Jesse Bakernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-67100077934485813272015-01-09T22:53:10.996-07:002015-01-09T22:53:10.996-07:00I won't pretend like I watched this show, but ...I won't pretend like I watched this show, but it sounds like a good idea to make Reigns and Ambrose allies again. Both have gotten derailed in completely different ways and this could help repair both of them. Best case scenario for WWE is that this gets some fans back on Reigns side, while also getting Ambrose some wins and momentum again. I doubt all of that happens, but at least it makes some sense.JDWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3838126259950293862.post-16160703843455142812015-01-09T22:53:04.043-07:002015-01-09T22:53:04.043-07:00Just rewatching Razor winning the belt the first t...Just rewatching Razor winning the belt the first time and amazing how it just looks so perfect on him.
