10 Potential WWE WrestleMania 31 Opponents For Stone Cold Steve Austin

6. The Authority

Just because Steve Austin's in a match with Roman Reigns doesn't mean they have to be taking each other on. Since SummerSlam 2013, The Authority has run roughshod over WWE. The Shield stood up to them, but despite the cohesive faction's dominance over Evolution, Triple H had a "Plan B" -- Shield architect Seth Rollins abandoned his brothers and joined up with The Authority. Reigns and Ambrose have yet to get full revenge on the trio of Triple H, Randy Orton, and the hated Rollins -- they don't even have a partner for the task. But imagine -- just imagine -- that the five men were face to face on an episode of Monday Night Raw prior to the show of shows. Triple H could gloat about how he brought the two men low. Ambrose challenges them to a match. Rollins reminds his former brothers that they're short a man. Suddenly, the glass shatters. Austin runs to the ring and runs off The Authority. At WrestleMania, the Authority must disband -- and Triple H and Stephanie must step down from their positions of power -- if Reigns, Rollins, and Austin win. Following a wild brawl, Stone Cold hits a Stunner on "The Game." HHH pops up into a Spear from Reigns. Ambrose makes the cover and scores the win for his team, and the crowd goes nuts.
