Rusev and Barrett Part Of The Authority Too? Where Was Ambrose?

It seems like it. I know Sheamus, Rusev and Barrett have formed some sort of alliance.

Where was Ambrose? He didn't come help Roman at Survivor Series when Sheamus cashed in. Nor did he help Roman again tonight. Possible sign that he's turning heel.

There goes the legitimacy of that Alliance even if there were booked as midcarders why have them brushed aside right off the bat? Weird booking.

Reigns is the big dog in the hounds of justice he can handle himself perfectly and climb his way to the top defying all the odds not in his favor. He will be the top dog of the whole company and you can #believethat

I like the idea of the authority with those three guys but...Reigns just dismantled them on their first night of being somewhat together. It's like the ending of a story when it's actually not even began. Think about Harry Potter but in the Philosophers Stone Voldemort returns, reunites with his death eaters and is defeated even before the end of the first book.

I now have no question mark as to weather Reigns can 'overcome the odds' because he's done it on his first attempt.

Ambrose was never going to be anything more than Roman's buddy in this whole storyline. I know people wanted more, heck I wanted to see more from him, but at the end of the day, he was just getting paired up with Roman again to give him the rub of popularity by association.

If this was 1999 WCW, these 3 would be on the nWo B-team. 3 mid-carders don't equal a main eventer. WTF are they doing. Barrett was over with his bad news gimmick and they made him stop doing that as soon as the fans caught on. Rusev had potential to be a monster heel and was destroyed 3 months in a row by Super Cena and despite that he still wasn't completely ruined. Looks like they're trying to finish the job on the burial of these two by pairing them with Sheamus, the mid-carder who never has and never will be over. This company is literally getting worse by the day.

The end of the show was absolutely ridiculous and justifies people's gripes with Reigns' booking.

There was THREE of them, Reigns had just been bullhammered, Barrett had a CHAIR, and Reigns still came out standing tall.

I mean really, would it really damage Reigns that much to be beaten down by 3 men? It would at least add more to the 'Reigns is going through hell because he's anti authority' story.

So when they screw him over and try to make him sympathetic it's "screw that he's not an underdog like Bryan. Just push him strong like they book him"

But if they give him a weapon and have him defend his self it's "OMG! He looked strong why can't he look weak. How can I get behind a face that kicks ass"

Good ending, he got hold of the chair after being bullhammered donkeys ago and turned it on against the bad guys, nothing wrong with it, the heel faction don't look THAT weak because it was basically one on one with a guy with a chair as he took each one out individually.

It worked as far as I'm concerned.

They want to say he is an underdog and then have him take out three men. Either book him as an underdog (which is dumb as fuck to being with and will just make him more hated cause he is far from an underdog) or make him a badass face.

Cos obviously Dean's in a different storyline now, he's not part of The Authority angle. Him and Roman aren't joined at the hip you know :D

I think it's a good thing, separating them for awhile. Have it as they're still brothers, they still help out each other on occasion but not all the time. They mostly do their own thing, but team up sometimes.

WWE Logic: Reigns is the powerhouse that can take out three of the toughest guys on the roster
