8 Ups And 7 Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (July 13th)
3. So Theyre Feuding Again?
The reunion of the Authority didnt last very long, did it? After berating the members of the Authority and having to stand on his own for a bit, Seth Rollins managed to reunite with Kane and J&J Security, bringing the Authority back together to confront Brock Lesnar three weeks ago. It looked like the band was back together, but after Mondays contract signing went awry (when has that ever happened before?), Rollins turned on the man hes tormented and mocked off and on for the past several months, Kane. While the Director of Operations was lying on the floor with a possible broken ankle (at Lesnars hands), Rollins grabbed a mic and started insulting him, then kicked Kane in the injured leg. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FnSbwP4_gI This wouldnt be a huge negative if it wasnt for the fact that Kane has erupted at Rollins and dialed it back, Rollins has yelled at Kane and had to mend fences, and back and forth theyve gone. Just when it looked like the Authority had patched things up at least for the foreseeable future we get another seeds of dissension deal from Kane and Rollins. Did we really need that?
