We are in Indianapolis, Indiana and your announcers are Michael Cole, John Layfield, and Jerry Lawler.
Triple H and Stephanie McMahon make their way to the ring in their role as people who have jobs at WWE Headquarters, but no role with the television product any more.
Stephanie says that they expected this kind of reaction from you people tonight because none of you know the meaning of the word respect. None of you understand the courage needed to come out here. None of you understand what it means to be a leader and stand in the face of all of this adversity and take responsibility for your actions. That is why they are out here tonight.
Team Authority would have won if it wasn’t for one man. One man who never set foot in a WWE ring before. One man who changed the face of WWE history forever. That man was Sting.
Because of Sting, the Authority is out of power. Because of her father, the Chairman and CEO of this company, the only person who can reinstate them is John Cena. They stand here not as losers, but as leaders. As winners because at the end of the day, they have their corporate responsibility. They might not have influence over the superstars and divas, but they have each other.
Stephanie says that she hopes everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving with their families because . . .
Hunter takes the mic from his crying wife. He asks if you are enjoying seeing them humbled and humiliated.
Hunter says that they are bullies. Stephanie tells everyone to look in the mirror. Hunter tells everyone to cheer because the Authority is out of power. Hunter says to be careful what you wish for. He knows that there is no one here who can handle that power. They live in a world . . . a universe governed by the laws of finance and commerce. Supply and demand are things you know nothing about. It takes a leader who is willing to do what is best for business. Not to make decisions based on what is popular. Who will make these decisions now? Is it going to be John Cena? Dolph Ziggler? Maybe it will be Sting?
Hunter tells Sting that he is not sure why he decided to come out here and stick your painted face in their business. Maybe it was a chance to stand in the ring with him for thirty seconds to make your career relevant. Your first night in a WWE ring is your last night in a WWE ring.
You ensured the Authority would not be in power, but you also ensured the demise of this company. Hunter says that it will be two or three weeks for this company. They have a greater responsibility than you can ever fathom. You cheer for Team Cena and you curse Team Authority because you have that luxury. What we did for all of you is what it takes to make the WWE thrive. What seems grotesque to you is what it takes to maintain that juggernaut. Who makes these decisions now? There is no John Cena, Dolph Ziggler, or Ryback without the Authority. Without the Authority, there is no you.
Hunter wants to know what are you going to do on a Monday night when Raw doesn’t exist. Are you going to sit on a couch and live with your pathetic memories. He wishes everyone luck. He wants everyone to cheer.
You will beg for the Authority to come back.
Daniel Bryan’s music plays and he makes his way to the ring.
Daniel stands in front of Hunter and he Yeses for him. Then he does the same to Stephanie.
Hunter and Stephanie leave the ring and Daniel chases them down to Yes in front of them.
Daniel returns to the ring and he yeses some more.
We go to commercial.
We are back and Daniel Bryan is still in the ring.
Daniel says that it feels good to be in this ring tonight. Daniel says that having the ability to kick the Authority out of the ring felt good too. What about Team Authority?
Daniel says that he has been put in charge of running Raw tonight. Daniel says that with the small amount of power that he has, he wants Team Authority to come out before you. Just because they lost last night doesn’t mean they are bad people. He brings out Team Authority.
They make their way to the stage.
Daniel says he is not a spiteful person. He will not take titles away or put you in unfair matches.
Seth Rollins . . . you are used to competing in handicap matches where you were always in those situations. Tonight will be no different. You will team with two other superstars to face John Cena and the man who single handedly defeated the Authority and changed the course of WWE history . . . Dolph Ziggler.
Cena and Dolph are always up for a challenge so it will be a three on two match.
Seth wants to know if Daniel controls the microphones too because he is having trouble saying something. Seth says that whether you like it or not, he is still the future of this company. There is nothing you can do about that. He wants to know what the deal is. Who is he being teamed up with. Is it going to be Hornswoggle, El Torito, JBL, or Cole.
Daniel says that he is not teaming Seth up with anybody, the WWE Universe is.
The options are A) Mark Henry and Luke Harper. A strong team. B) Mark Henry and Kane. Another strong team. C) Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury.
Seth does not like the option but Daniel tells him the show must go on.
Seth goes to the back with Mercury and Noble.
Daniel wants to talk to his good ole buddy Corporate Kane. What would Dr. Shelby think now? As Director Of Operations, you would be off that path. If he was in charge, you wouldn’t have that job. Wait a minute, he is in charge. Should Kane be the Director of Operations? The people say no.
Daniel says that he won’t kick Kane to the curb. He is no longer Director of Operations. He is now the Director of Food and Beverage. He is now Concessions Kane. Daniel wants a tray and hair net for Kane.
Now it is time to address the United States Champion Rusev . . . and Lana. He says that since Rusev is the United States Champion, he should be more patriotic. He talks about how horrible the United States is. You have two options. You can compete in a Company wide Battle Royal against every other WWE Superstar for the United States Title. Option B is that you come to the ring with a big US flag in the background and you recite the Pledge of Allegiance.
Now it is time to talk about Luke Harper. You won last week with the help of Seth Rollins and J&J Security. Tonight you are going to be fighting by yourself. Daniel says that he needs a good opponent so how about Dean Ambrose.
That leaves us with Mark Henry. Daniel tells Mark not to go anywhere. A big guy came up to him and asked him for a favor and Daniel said yes, because that is his thing. He wanted to avenge the most embarrassing moment of his career when he lost to Mark at Wrestlemania a few years ago. Ryback asked for the match and Daniel said Yes. He says that he can do that because he is running Raw.
Daniel says that is what he do.
Daniel tells Mark his match is happening right now.

Vince says that he is not an angry man. He is just disappointed. You are going to have to overcome insurmountable odds in the corporate world, just like you faced at Survivor Series and you failed him. Vince tells them never to forget the feeling they had in the ring because somehow you are going to fix this.
Stephanie says that she is sorry and Vince says that he has never been sorry in his life. He might be sorry for having to spend Thanksgiving with you two.
