Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, Batista and Randy Orton promo

Stephanie is kind enough to offer the fans a nice farewell to the Yes Movement before Triple H ends it at WrestleMania. Triple H then knocks the fans and says they won’t care, because they don’t really care about Daniel Bryan. They then mocked Fandango-ing, and Triple H said that Fandango has a lot of talent, but the fans don’t care; they liked Fandango-ing and threw it aside when they were done. Stephanie announces that Bryan won’t be on the show, which can’t be true for both of the final two Raws before WrestleMania. Triple H says that he has taken down every “star” the fans threw his way and introduced a video that talked about those guys, like Booker T, Rob Van Dam, Jeff Hardy, Goldberg, Chris Jericho, Mick Foley, and Kurt Angle. Triple H admitted all those guys were great, but they weren’t “The Game”. Triple H then vows to beat Bryan, but also to walk out of WrestleMania as WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Batista comes out and points out that he wasn’t in Triple H’s video, because Triple H has never beating him. Batista then calls Triple H the brains of The Authority, because he found out last week that Stephanie is the brawn. Orton’s music hits and he comes out and begs Stephanie to wait until he gets in the ring before she slaps the taste out of Batista’s mouth again. Orton again asks Triple H to excuse himself from the title match because he respects him too much to do what he has to do to him, but Triple H has no interest. Triple H then tells them that their main event match will be No DQ. Pretty good segment. It would have been easy to predict them all being on the same page going into WrestleMania, but they did a good job the past few weeks proving that wouldn’t be the case.
