In case you didn’t know… Over the last several months, WWE has been embroiled in controversies of its own - reports of multiple Superstars asking for their releases and being interested in AEW due to creative differences; the diminishing ratings since late 2018, especially at a time when FOX is keeping an eye on WWE’s returns.

In the past few weeks, Orton has lost to Cena, Bryan and Cesaro- who are three of the five opponents he will face this Sunday. This means that a recently returned Sheamus might score a win from his own side as well this week. But at the end of the show Orton and the Authority need to stand tall, even if they’re united or divided. This should lead to a will they/won’t they angle of whether the Authority will again aid Orton or screw Bryan....

WWE did it just right by giving it to none other than Shane McMahon, and later pitting him against current fan favourite, The Miz, who is enjoying the best babyface run of his career.
