Monday Night RAW kicked off live from the home of country music, Nashville, Tennessee with the Viper Randy Orton. He made his slow walk to the ring, a smirk on his face as the fans cheered loudly for him. As he climbs into the ring and picks up a mic, the crowd in Nashville starts up a loud "RANDY" chant.
Orton said he has something he needs to get off his chest tonight. He brings up how he's been out of action for the last "four freaking months" because of Seth Rollins. We get a reminder of what went down last November of The Authority attacking Orton giving him a curb stomp over the steel steps. Back live, Orton said he has been replaying that scene over and over in his head. He is here tonight to tell The Authority and tell the world he is just now getting started. Orton said Rollins got away last night at Fastlane, he got a stay of execution; and then he proceeds to call out Rollins to the ring.
Triple H's music hits instead and he walks out with Stephanie McMahon, Big Show and Kane. All four head to the ring. Stephanie grabs a mic and welcomes Orton back. She said the Orton we saw last night was the Orton everyone knows and loves. Stephanie said that was the Orton she wants as the face of WWE. Orton cuts her off saying he isn't part of this family and isn't part of The Authority. He wants to bash Rollins' brains in. Stephanie thinks he can forgive Rollins and sees no reason why the face and future of WWE can't exist at the same time. She said Orton left them no choice, but everyone here is willing to forgive him. "Come back home. Join The Authority," said Stephanie. Orton said that is tempting, but he'd rather kick some ass instead of kiss ass.
Big Show grabs the mic and says he knows Orton is frustrated and angry. He said all that anger and frustration Orton has, he understands and he's had to put it to the side in the past himself. "Joining The Authority was the best personal decision I've ever made," said Big Show. A loud "YOU SOLD OUT" chant starts up in Nashville. Big Show says Orton returning to The Authority is the best decision he could ever make. Orton says by coming back he means selling out. Stephanie wants Orton to look her in the eyes. She said Orton isn't a good guy and brings up the bad things he's done during his career without caring what the crowd thinks. Stephanie brings up the horrible things Orton has done to her and her family. She wants Orton to hear them out as she can't force his hand. Stephanie suggests a business meeting so they can do what is right and for him to come back home.
Stephanie exists the ring with help from Big Show and Kane. Triple H stares down Orton. Triple H then exists the ring along with Big Show and Kane. All four head to the back. Orton tells them to wait a minute. "I'll be there. I'll see you in the back. Business meeting, fine," adds Orton. Orton drops the mic as we see a shot of Stephanie smiling.
Siren is sitting in her office when a knock comes and one of the camera techs pokes his head inside. "You all set for your segment Siren?"
"Yep all good here." She answered with a smile.
Before the next match with Ziggler and Barrett, the cameras cut backstage where Randy Orton is seen approaching an office door. He knocks on the door and enters, the fans can be heard cheering as it closes behind him and the camera zooms in on the name on the plaque. "Siren."
Inside the office Siren and Randy watch the match on the monitor as they chat about his off time.
After the match, Dean Ambrose's music hits and he walks down the ramp with the WWE Intercontinental Championship in hand. Ambrose gets in the ring and walks up to Barrett who is sitting in the corner. Ambrose and Barrett trash talk. Ambrose turns back and sees Ziggler getting his eye on the title as well. Ambrose shoulder checks Ziggler, before he rolls out and leaves with the title.
Once again the cameras cut backstage as both Orton and Siren step out of her office grinning. Together they makes their way to The Authority's office for Orton's meeting with them. As they enter they quickly notice that Rollins is less than happy to see them entering together.
"Gentlemen, thank you for coming." Stephanie states glancing between her pouting husband and the two men glaring one another down. "I've asked you here tonight, for us all to get together-"
"Hunter." Seth states cutting her off. "You cannot seriously be considering bringing him back to The Authority." He complains hooking a thumb over towards Orton.
"Excuse me, you're gonna be that rude to me? You're gonna be that disrespectful while I'm speaking? Do you have problem because I'm a woman Seth Rollins? I suggest you back down and think about someone other than yourself for just a minute."
Siren stands in between him and Orton covering her mouth to hide her smile.
"Stephanie, as Director of Operations, I suggest that we reconsider this course of action." Kane states. "Considering what Randy did to Jamie, Joey and me last night; perhaps a more direct approach is necessary. So I would suggest—"
This time it's Stephanie that cuts in. "And I would suggest that you as the Director of Operations Kane, think about the bigger picture and realize this isn't just about you. Or you." She states looking pointedly at Rollins. This is about The Authority. I mean think about it, we have Big Show, we have Kane. The two biggest monsters in the WWE. We have Seth Rollins, Mr. Money in the Bank. We have the best manager in the business, Siren."
The brunette is actually taken aback as Stephanie gives her accolades and includes her in The Authority.
"We have the Viper Randy Orton, together we are unstoppable. Dominance is child's play. I'm talking about absolute power."
"But, but, how are we ever supposed to trust him again?" Seth politely interrupts and says.
"But? There are no buts Seth and if Randy can find it in his heart to forgive you after your actions; after the plan that you concocted."
"My plan?" Seth stutters out incredulously, knowing full well he was under marching orders from Stephanie and Hunter when he took Orton out. Glancing over at Siren he sees the "told you so" written all over her face.
"Then I think that the rest of us can find it in our hearts to forgive Randy Orton and move forward. So Randy I now put the question to you. Are you able to move forward? If you say no then that's fine, we'll let you leave and we'll deal with the consequences of your actions later. But if you say yes, then I guarantee you Randy; we will all show you, you will have my personal word that we are your family, you have our support, we open our arms to you and welcome you back. What do you say?"
Orton extends his hand to Rollins, who takes it as they uneasily shake hands. Big Show congratulates them as Stephanie claps, before she books Randy Orton and Seth Rollins against Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns for later tonight.
Seth and Siren head back to her office to watch Roman's in-ring promo; Rollins can't help but notice the sinister smirk that Orton gives him as he walks off.
"He does know we're just pretending right?"
Siren laughs as she sits down beside him on the couch. "Relax, Randy just gets very into his character. You'll be fine baby."
Back live, Roman Reigns is out and on his way to the ring. He grabs a mic and waits for the cheers to die down before he starts speaking.
"Well I ain't gonna lie, it's been one hell of a month. And it all started with the Royal Rumble. I went through 29 other superstars, won the Royal Rumble match, but apparently that wasn't good enough. So last night at Fastlane I had a number 1 contender match against Daniel Bryan, and I did exactly what I said I was gonna do; I was gonna walk out and be the winner and that is how I can stand here right now and say, that I am GOING TO WRESTLEMANIA!
And I could hear you all month, yep I could hear ya all month. I know a lot of you were rooting for the other guy." He goes to address all of his doubters when Daniel Bryan's music hits.
Daniel Bryan gets on the mic and says he did mean to interrupt. "It's because you mentioned the doubters. People who doubt Roman Reigns. Now I saw you win the Royal Rumble match…*booing from the audience*…and I knew that you deserved that opportunity to main event WrestleMania," adds Bryan. He said somehow he felt like the people and he just booed and booed. Bryan said a lot of people were Roman Reigns doubters and he was the biggest doubter of all. He said when people talk about potential, they really mean size and don't have half the heart that he does. Bryan said that is why the audience likes him and doesn't like Reigns. "And that is why I didn't like you. Last night, I had an opportunity, if I beat you I go on to main event WrestleMania and win back the WWE World Heavyweight Championship that I never lost. And I gave it every single thing that I had and I gave it things that I didn't know I had." Bryan said he dug down deep last night and he still wasn't able to beat Reigns. "I can honestly say that I don't regret a thing, because I gave it every single thing that I had and it wasn't me." Bryan said he doesn't care how many people boo Reigns still. "Guess what, sir, you beat me. I put it all on the table and all I have left to say is this…congratulations." Bryan extends his hand to Reigns. Bryan and Reigns shake hands. He said if he could pick one superstar to team up with tonight, it is Reigns. Bryan tells Reigns to go beat the crap out of Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania.
Bryan exists the ring as Paul Heyman interrupts. Heyman steps aside as Bryan heads to the back. Heyman introduces himself and he knows that you think he is here to cause trouble this evening. He asks for permission from Reigns to enter the ring and Reigns allows it. Heyman said he is actually here to say congratulations to Reigns and shakes hands with Reigns. "That was a hell of a main event last night and even more impressive victory by you, the number one contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship," adds Heyman. Heyman said he can't say he is surprised. He said his money would always be on Roman Reigns. He said Reigns is different and ahead of everyone else. Heyman fantasy books Reigns against Bruno Sammartino, Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H and John Cena – saying his money would be on Reigns every single time. He said Reigns is "the guy" and the right guy in the right place…at the wrong time. "You're not fighting a man at WrestleMania. You're fighting a beast. And Roman, I have so much respect for you. You can't slay my beast. You can't conquer the conqueror. You can't be the one to beat the one in 21 and 1." Heyman predicts an announcement following the main event of WrestleMania. The only title that truly matters will be raised high as the announcer proclaims the winner and still reigning and defending WWE World Heavyweight Champion of the world…Brock Lesnar.
"Why you standing over there Paul? Why don't you come stand right here? Just stand right there." Roman says pointing to a spot directly in front of him. "Right there. Stand right there. And now I want you to tell me again that I can't. Do me a favor, tell me again Paul. Tell me I can't. Come on tell me. I've been hearing this a lot, that I can't do this, I can't do that, I have doubters. But it's all motivation, I thought you were smarter than that. So please tell me again, give me some more motivation Paul.
Because you were there the night after Royal Rumble, you witnessed me face to face with your client… Brock Lesnar. I told him, I looked him dead in his eyes and I told him "you're gonna respect me." I don't care if he respects me. I was only doing that to get my Samoan blood boiling. So I'm gonna tell you, what I told him. I'm gonna beat Brock. I'm gonna beat Brock at Wrestlemania. And it's not about just beating him, naw man, respect goes out the window. It's not about beating him. It's the way I beat him. Because when I'm done with him, he ain't gonna like me anyways. Believe that."
In the office Seth and Siren glance to the door as shortly after Roman walks inside, both of them smiling at him as he sits down on the couch. They watch the tag team match and Cena calling out Rusev before Seth gets up to go get ready for his match.
"4 weeks bro and you're gonna be holding that title high." Seth tells Roman before he smirks. "But tonight you're gonna lose." He walks out with a cackle.
Roman turns a curious eye to Siren. "He doesn't know?"
"Nope." She states smiling. "And we're not gonna tell him."
Backstage, Seth Rollins wants to talk with Randy Orton. The Viper opens the door, a smile on his face as he sees Siren standing in the hallway. "Rollins would like a word."
His smile instantly falls as he allows Siren and Seth inside the locker room.
"Randy hey, you uh, got a minute to talk?" Seth asks.
"Yeah. Yeah of course. But if you're here to talk strategy about tonight. Could you do me a favor and leave your pets at the door."
Rollins kicks them out as Randy mocks the two men. "Look, let's just get this out of the way right now. I know you hate me okay."
"No wait a minute. Hate, it's such a strong word. You see I'm a big picture kinda guy Seth and for the sake of what's truly best for business, consider us on the same page.
"Well, I guess if you're really starting to see things more clearly, then that's great. We can put the past behind us, we can forget about what happened between us, we can move…"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'm never gonna forget what happened. Not a chance in hell, but I can offer you a little reassurance on tonight. See the only thing on my mind tonight is to show Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns, that they got very lucky, that I wasn't one of the thirty men in the Royal Rumble."
"Well, you know what. That's something I can agree with. So let's do it. Let's show Roman and Daniel exactly what the face and the future are all about huh." Rollins holds out his hand which Randy grabs and shakes.
"By any means necessary." The Viper states cryptically.
Rollins nods and heads out with a smile missing the wink Siren throws to Randy before she follows.

Being as that they were in Nashville they group decided to go out for some fun, before they caught their flights to the next town. Granted they had to go out as two separate entities with Jon, Joe and Renee taking up a table at a local dance hall with Trinity and The Uso's; then Tasha and Colby coming in together along with J&J, Kane and Big Show.
With fans being in attendance as well Tasha had to play up her character storyline, which she executed perfectly as she sat beside Colby looking hopeful that the floor would open up and swallow her whole. She was having a blast annoying Rollins by dancing on the floor with both Reigns and Ambrose; then with Orton after he'd shown up, which was the cherry on top of her delicious cake. But apparently Colby decided to up the ante on their storyline when he asked her to dance with him.
She was sitting at the table sipping her beer when Colby stood up from his chair and held out his hand to her. "What are you doing?" She whispered looking at him with wide eyes.
"Stirring the pot." He smirked.
"Are you crazy? There's fans here, we can't do this."
"Just pretend you hate me. Come on babe, dance with me."
Tasha sighed seeing the puppy dog eyes he threw her, rolling her eyes she took his hand and allowed him to lead her out onto the floor. She tried to keep her face neutral, but she was finding it hard not to smile as he led her around the floor.
"Been taking dance lessons?" She asked as he twirled her around.
"Joe taught me a few moves. I know you like to swing dance, so I wanted learn for you."
She was touched, but had to look annoyed as if he'd said something rude. "You can't be sweet when I'm supposed to hate you."
"I'm trying to wear you down remember." He grinned.
Biting her lip to avoid smiling she glanced around and noticed several fans holding up their phones and she groaned letting her head fall back momentarily. "We're being filmed from all angles."
"Then let's give 'em something to talk about."
About that time the song changed and Tasha glared up at Colby as she heard the song begin. "You didn't." His mile wide grin told her that he had and she had to shake her head and laugh.
Girl you know I've known you forever
How many nights have we hung out together?
Same little crowd, little bar, little town
Round this old dance floor
My boys are laughing, tap me on the shoulder
Making a motion like "could y'all get any closer?"
They wanna know what's up, why I'm still holding ya
Even when the song is over
There's a rumor going round, about me and you
Stirring up our little town, the last week or two
So tell me why we even trying to deny this feeling
I feel it, don't you feel it too?
There's a rumor going round, and round, and round
What you say we make it true?
We make it true
Well I can shut 'em down, tell them all they're crazy
I can do whatever you want me to do, baby
Or you could lay one on me right now
We could really give 'em something to talk about
Colby winked and Tasha had to hide her face behind her hair to cover her laugh.
There's a rumor going round about me and you
Stirring up our little town the last week or two
So tell me why we even trying to deny this feeling
I feel it, don't you feel it too?
There's a rumor going round, and round, and round
What you say we make it true, baby?
Oh, be honest girl now
Do you want to do this or not?
Should we keep 'em talking, girl
Or should we just make 'em stop?
Colby dipped Tasha and brought her up flush against his chest as the beat dropped. The fans got some good pics of the two face-to-face staring into one another's eyes.
There's a rumor going round about me and you
Stirring up our little town the last week or two
Oh! Tell me why we even trying to deny this feeling
I feel it, and you feel it too
There's a rumor going round, and round, and round
What you say we make it...
Make it true?
What you say we make it true? Yeah
At the end of the song Colby dipped her back, holding her thigh in his hand; cheers and hollers erupted from all sides from fans and talent. Playing her part Siren quickly righted herself and pushed away from him with a confused look; before heading back to the table and downing the rest of her beer in one gulp.
The rest of the night wasn't as eventful, but that didn't stop the fans from watching Rollins and Siren's every move with anticipation.
When they got back to the hotel the couple changed out of their clothes and climbed into bed. Tasha laughed as Colby cuddled her in his arms, her head resting on his shoulder.
"You are completely crazy. I can't believe you did that tonight." She told him as he scrolled through his Twitter.
"But it payed off. Look." He said showing her the long list of tweets attached to the hashtag #RollinsRose.
"Oh my lord." She laughed seeing photos and videos of the two. Judging by the tweets the fans really wanted to see the two become a couple, their animosity towards each other fueling the fire.
