Raw Review: Triple H’s Big Announcement Revealed

Roman Reigns vs. Big Show
This match started during the commercial, and returned with Show in control.
Reigns mounted a comeback though, and was ready to hit a Superman Punch, but Seth Rollins and J & J Security got involved.
Reigns stayed in it, but Rollins took a shot at him behind the referee’s back, and he walked right into a chokeslam from Show.
Show defeats Reigns via pinfall.
2.75 out of 5 stars – Anybody who thought a Reigns win at Fast Lane was automatic, must stop and reevaluate things. That elevated this subpar match.
Triple H and Stephanie McMahon backstage
Right after the match, The Authority were seen watching on a monitor backstage, mocking Reigns.
Triple H laughed about how they’re not even allowed to put Reigns’ WrestleMania spot on the line, but they’re doing it anyway.
They said their plan is falling right into place, with Show taking care of Reigns, now they just need Rollins to take care of Daniel Bryan, then Rollins to do the same thing to Reigns at Fast Lane.
Stephanie asked Triple H about his podcast appearance with Steve Austin after Raw, and Triple H said Austin can ask whatever he wants, because he’s just going to manipulate Austin, just like he did to the audience at the opening of the show.
