In keeping with The Authority’s trend of eliminating theirwould-beenemies, what should have been a defining moment for Jack Swagger turned into his martyrdom at the end of a brutal, tightly-contested bout with Seth Rollins. The Real American can take some solace in the fact that his losses to Rusevhaven’t robbed him of his strength; even the English crowd gave props to the way Swagger tossed Rollins about like a rag doll, forcing Mr. Money in the Bank to seek refuge outside the ring.

The good news for Swagger ended at a moral victory, however: A pair of Patriot Locks brought J&J Security to Rollins’ rescue and the former WWE Tag Team Champion capitalized, shoving Swagger headfirst into the ring post and following up with two Curb Stomps. One to defeat Swagger formally, and one as a word of warning to anyone who would pledge allegiance to Team Cena alongside him.
LIVERPOOL, U.K. – Since Triple H & Co. spent last week filling up their Survivor Series ranks, John Cena made his return to Raw hoping to beef up his own squad (which had apparently received a commitment from Jack Swagger) in advance of the bout that could decide the future of The Authority itself. What he got was an impromptu bidding war over Ryback's soulwhen The Big Guy joined the Cenation leader in advance of their main event match and found himself fielding pitches from both The Authority (who had already brought Mark Henry into the fold) and Cena. While one side promised fame and the other glory, the decision came down, as always, to dollars and cents: Specifically, Ryback's checks aren't authorized by John Cena. So, it was a “Thanks but no thanks” for Cena, in the form of a spinebuster and a handshake with The Game, sealing The Authority’s newest addition.
