Haven't we seen this episode before? Corporation of the late 1990s and early 2000s? Except now we see Triple H trying his best to reenact Vince McMahon's role of being the sole power of the WWE. We see Stephanie McMahon once more return to her heel roots (then again, was she ever a 'face'?) The Shield now acting as a three-man copy of the late Bossman, carrying out the wishes of 'The Man' or in this case 'The Authority'. The Big Show wussified to unbearable peaks and Daniel Bryan being pushed as such an underdog he's supposed to rival the struggles endured by Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero (in similar past storylines during their careers)?

Truthfully, this angle with The Authority, The Shield, Daniel Bryan and The Big Show was and is a stale story with predictable outcomes. It fails to even attempt to mask the obvious. This Authority storyline cannot end soon enough.
