WWE WrestleMania 30: 5 Reasons Orton Vs Batista Will Actually Be Great

5. The Authority

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5BbliB9OWU Orton's relationship with his benefactors has been rocky as of late, to say the least. Long gone are the days of Triple H buying him a brand new car! Triple H and Stephanie seemed extremely happy to announce the return of The Animal two weeks ago on Raw. They didn't, however, seem at all happy when Orton interrupted Batista's introduction. As much as they craved Orton being the face of the WWE, it would certainly seem that having a real life movie star, and even a star of the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the face of your company would indeed, be best for business. The twists and turns that The Authority's role will play through Elimination Chamber and all the way to WrestleMania will be exciting, especially now that Batista's baby face status may be in jeopardy (no-one in the WWE Universe was thrilled with his Royal Rumble win). As it stands, we run the risk of having a heel vs. heel WrestleMania main event, so The Authority's role will be pivotal to keep the fans engaged. With Triple H scheduled to face Daniel Bryan or CM Punk (depending on the latter's recent 'departure' from the company) I expect their roles to be much more focused around mind games, which is where Stephanie is at her finest. WWE Creative will keep flip-flopping Stephanie & Triple H from baby face to heel on an almost weekly basis right up until the big event when their true colours will finally be shown. I see them fully behind Batista when all is said and done, leaving Orton as the psychotic, vengeful heel of old that we all loved to hate.
