Shane McMahon Vs. Authority Is WWE's Summer Feud?

Family crisis could start in May.

Shane McMahon may have lost to The Undertaker at WrestleMania 32, but that hasn't stopped him from running WWE Raw each and every Monday since.

While the stipulation reversal has made little sense given Shane and Vince McMahon's mutual enmity, there are now rumors that "The Boy Wonder's" continued presence on WWE TV is meant to build up to a feud with The Authority, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.

Triple H and Stephanie haven't been seen on television since "The Game" lost the WWE World Heavyweight Championship to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania, but by virtue of The Undertaker's win over Shane, they're still technically in control of the product. After they've finished licking their wounds, it makes perfect sense that they'd take umbrage at the fact that Shane has been running the show in their absence.

The latest update about the feud is that it's supposed to start in early May. Potentially, Shane McMahon could make another run at winning permanent control of Raw, this time in a match with Triple H. Not only would that bout be a huge draw, but it would make more sense than the Shane-Undertaker match. It could even be a huge semi-main event for SummerSlam.
