Monday night RAW opened up with a video recap of the events from last week. Roman Reigns was set to square off with Seth Rollins when The Authority, with an assist from Randy Orton, cost him the match and Rollins picked up the victory.

The couple was in Siren's office looking over the match and promo list for the night. After reading the entrants for the main event, the two looked up at one another in succession.

"Well, this should be an interesting night." Colby muttered as they set the papers down and headed up to the curtain for the first segment.

Randy Orton's music hits, and he makes his way to the ring. Tonight's main event will see Orton team with Seth Rollins to take on Roman Reigns. Big Show, Kane, Seth Rollins, Siren and J&J Security are already in the ring awaiting him. As Kane starts speaking Seth turns and passes off his briefcase to Siren who takes it and leans back in the corner behind him looking supremely bored with the whole situation.

Kane says they could have done this in private, but they wanted to do it in public to prove to everyone who refuses to believe that Orton is one of them. Kane wants to reveal the people's ignorance. Kane says it is his duty as the Director of Operations to welcome Orton back to The Authority. The crowd boos this. Big Show says he goes back a long time with Orton before stopping to look at the angry crowd. Big Show says it's ignorant people like them that make him angry when he's trying to make a point. Big Show says he sees the most talented, sadistic, and aggressive athlete he's ever seen. Big Show sees a man who is so ruthless that he would RKO his own father if he stood in the way of something he wants. Big Show shakes his hand and says, "Welcome home, bro. Welcome back to The Authority where you belong."

Jamie Noble takes the microphone. Noble says as a member of The Authority, he is proud… Noble stops and screams that he can't do this. Noble says Orton is a snake, and Rollins takes the microphone from him; noticing briefly that Siren is laughing in the corner.

Rollins says Orton will have to excuse Noble because he's the sensitive one. Rollins mocks him and asks if Noble's feeling were hurt when he got an RKO. Rollins says Noble is 100% thrilled Orton is back in The Authority. Rollins wants Joey Mercury to say something, but he declines. Rollins says they aren't "J&J Public Speaking," so they should give them a break.

He then turns and motions to Siren. "And of course Siren is happy that you're back." He holds out the microphone to her and she waves him off with a smile. "You really don't wanna hear what I want to say, trust me Seth."

Rollins wants to address the elephant in the room. Everyone in the entire WWE Universe has been saying the same thing: Randy Orton is not really a part of The Authority. People think Orton is just biding his time until he gets revenge on Seth Rollins; and of course Siren is nodding in the corner along with the fans. Rollins says they must feel like the biggest idiots on Planet Earth right now. Rollins stands side by side with Orton and says they're proud members of The Authority. The crowd boos before chanting, "RKO." Rollins says everyone had a little doubt, including himself. J&J had a little doubt, as did Kane and Big Show. Rollins jokes and says no one really cares about what Big Show thinks. Rollins says they're all back together as one big happy family. Rollins wants to take this opportunity to extend his hand and say, "Randy Orton, welcome home." Orton shakes hands with him. Rollins demands that everyone stand up and pay respect to one of the most decorated champions in the history of WWE and his partner for tonight's main event. Rollins wants the crowd to give it up for Randy Orton, and they give him a nice hand.

Orton takes the microphone, he turns around giving a look to Siren who shoots him a wink before he leans on the ropes and looks out at the crowd. "That was very touching. Those words were very kind and I felt it right here at the bottom of my heart, but they left me thinking something. What the hell happened to The Authority? Are you guys hearing yourselves, kissing my ass like that? Who are you people?"

Big Show steps forward in protest and Randy holds up his hand. "Naw wait a minute, wait a minute, you'll get your turn. We're just gonna have a little fun here for a second. Kane you were the Devil's Favorite Demon, right now what, the Devil's Favorite Dumbass? Which Kane is it? Kicking ass and taking names, or kissing ass and making coffee. What are you laughing at big man? You should be the most dominant giant in the history of the WWE. Instead, you use all that size, strength, and power to bitch, moan, and feel sorry for yourself. From the most dominant superstar in history to the most pathetic. Jamie, you of all people, you speak from your gut. You tell it like it is, but why? Why do you despise me so? Is it because everyone actually knows who I am? Or is it because I can get on all the rides at Disneyland and you can't? It's okay buddy, my six-year old daughter feels the same way."

Orton goes to Joey Mercury before just walking away, turning his attention to Siren; leaning on the ropes next to her giving her a sinister smirk. "And Siren… you know she's the only one that I don't have anything bad to say about—other than her horrible choices in men. Cena over me, really?"

The crowd cheers as Siren laughs shaking her head. "Asshole," she whispers smiling up at him.

"Siren is the only one that truly speaks her mind despite the consequences. I never have to wonder whose side she's on, because she always does what's best for this company." He says cryptically before moving over and standing in front of Seth.

"Which brings me to Mr. Seth Rollins, the Architect, Mr. Money in the Bank-the self-proclaimed future of the WWE. You have been blinded my friend, blinded by your ego that you can't even see what's happening here. Week in and week out I've been here, getting close to your family; biding my time, waiting for you and you alone to feel safe and secure. And only when you feel safe and secure, I will pick my opportunity to strike. And when I strike, Seth I won't just beat you, I won't just beat you down. Seth! I plan on making you my bitch!"

The crowd roars as the two men stand toe-to-toe; all the while Siren is dying of laughter in the corner.

"You will feel every stomp, every kick, every punch as I take you apart piece by piece till there is no future for Seth Rollins left." Randy smirks as the now angry men circle around him, meanwhile the fans are chanting, "RKO." He mock lunges towards Seth and the younger man flinches.

"Come on guys, I'm just playing around, I'm screwing with ya. Lighten the hell up! Siren thought it was funny." He says pointing to her as she laughs clapping her hands for him.

"I'm messing around guys." He says slapping them all the shoulder.

Rollins exaggeratedly laughs as he takes the mic back. "We're just having fun. Hey, the Viper strikes again everybody. Man you had me. You had me so good. Maybe you should be the one taking over for Jon Stewart. Hey, if you guys think we're having fun out here right now, wait till you see what me and my partner, my family member do tonight in our handicap match main event; when we finish what we started last week when we dismantle Roman Reigns, we derail him on his road to WrestleMania. Because boys, bring it in."

He waves all the guys over, minus Siren who he knows will not join them. "Because that is what's best for business."

As the others laugh and discuss the moment with one another, the fans notice a silent conversation happening between Orton and Siren as he stands by her.

"That was a low blow Randall." Siren laughs shoving his shoulder as they walk backstage. "And just so we're clear, you had me first, you let me go. Your loss." She stated giving him a wide smile.

"And your loss, is my gain." Seth said as he walked up and slung his arm over her shoulders. "Don't get any ideas bro."

"Wouldn't dream of it Rollins." Randy chuckled before heading off to catering as the couple headed into her office to watch Dean's match.

Daniel Bryan leads the arena in a huge "YES" chant as replays are shown of him beating the IC champ. Barrett, irate takes Bryan out with a Bull Hammer! Barrett celebrates before turning his attention to R-Truth who is sitting at the announcer's table. R-Truth doesn't understand why he's looking at him, so the commentators remind him that he's stolen the Intercontinental Championship on many occasions. Barrett backs up the ramp before Dean Ambrose's music hits. Ambrose runs down the ramp and clotheslines him on the floor!

As Dean's match prepares to get underway, there's a knock just before the door opens as Triple H steps into the office. He gives the couple a smile before telling them why he's there.

"I just wanted to let you know that Lesnar just arrived at the building. He's only here for a promo so he'll be leaving afterwards. I have security standing outside of your office. I want you to stay in here, keep the door locked until we're sure he's gone. Alright?"

"Yeah. Thanks Paul." Tasha tells him genuinely.

"No problem. Any issues you give me a shout on the radio, okay?"

"Will do."

"Appreciate it man." Colby says.

"Hey, you're the closest thing I got to a sister. I won't let you get hurt again. At least not without your permission." He chuckles knowing that she often put herself in harm's way just for fun.

After Hunter leaves Cole turns to his girlfriend with a concerned face. "He's right babe, you do get hurt a lot during shows."

"It's who I am Cole. Siren is a force of nature, a fighter. If I suddenly started hanging back and not engaging the fans would notice and they wouldn't be happy about it. They know I could never stand by and watch a friend get hurt. But I promise I will try my best to only make it a show and not get hurt for real. Though accidents happen."

Cole chuckled recalling her getting hit in the face with a ladder and breaking her nose. "Yeah, you are kinda accident prone." He laughed as she slugged him in the face with a pillow.

Stardust makes his entrance wearing the stolen WWE Intercontinental Championship. The match begins, and Stardust begins to freak out over the "Cody" chants. They lock up and Ambrose takes him down with a headlock. They get back to their feet, and Ambrose applies a side headlock. Stardust whips him off, but Ambrose takes him down with a shoulder block for a one count. Ambrose chops the chest before ripping at his face. Ambrose punches him to the corner before hitting a snap-mare and a low clothesline. Ambrose drops an elbow before attempting a suplex, but Stardust blocks it. Stardust then hits a front suplex before hissing at him. Ambrose quickly knees him in the midsection and dropkicks him against the ropes. Ambrose rubs his forearm on his face before raking him against the ropes. Stardust reverses a whip and kicks him in the head. Stardust does a cartwheel before taunting him. Ambrose slaps him in the face and clotheslines him out of the ring. Ambrose then takes him out with a suicide dive. Ambrose sends him into the ring, but Stardust attacks him as he tries to get back in the ring. Stardust attacks the left knee before knocking him to the floor.

Back from the break, Ambrose is trapped in a single leg crab. Ambrose fights out and kicks him away. Ambrose boots him in the face and punches him. Ambrose chops him to the ropes before taking him down with a pair of running forearms. Ambrose connects with a running forearm in the corner before hitting a bulldog. Ambrose tries to shake feeling into his leg before going to the top rope. Stardust charges him, so Ambrose jumps over him. Stardust goes for the Cross Rhodes, but Ambrose gets out with a snap-mare. Stardust forearms him into the ropes, but Ambrose comes back with a rebound clothesline. Ambrose connects with Dirty Deeds for the win.

Ambrose retrieves the Intercontinental Championship and holds it up. Bad News Barrett runs down and attacks him. Daniel Bryan then runs down and tries to even the odds. Luke Harper runs in and joins the brawl. Dolph Ziggler then runs down and joins the fray. R-Truth doesn't understand what's happening. R-Truth then sneaks over to the ring and puts the Intercontinental Title in the burlap sack. In the ring, Stardust hits Ambrose with the Cross Rhodes. Ziggler superkicks Stardust before Harper takes him out with a Discus Clothesline. Bryan then takes Harper out with a Busaiku Knee Kick. Barrett then takes Bryan out with a second Bull Hammer. Barrett goes over to R-Truth and demands to get his title back. R-Truth then hands the bag over to him. Barrett takes the bag and leaves through the crowd. Barrett takes the title out of the bag, and it's a replica toy belt. Barrett slams it down in frustration as R-Truth reveals the real title at the top of the stage.

Connor "The Crusher" Michalek will be the first ever recipient of the "Warrior Award" at this year's Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Connor's father is shown at ringside.

As Heyman and Lesnar stand in the ring spewing their usual rhetoric they use for any superstar challenging the beast; Siren rolls her eyes as the crowd cheers for them.

"If they only knew what a real psycho he is, they wouldn't be cheering for him."

"Yeah well, unfortunately they'll probably never know. Everyone thinks it's a storyline." Seth sighs wrapping his arms around her and pulling her close.

Feeling like being a bitch, Siren picks up her radio and calls up to the tech in charge of the mics. "Shut off Heyman's mic."

She watches on the monitor as Heyman's mic cuts out and he gets pissed. After a moment she lets them turn it back on. Another few minutes passes. "Shut it off again." She orders.

She collapses into laughter as Heyman grows more livid and she can see Lesnar getting pissed off as well.

"You're playing with fire baby." Seth warns her.

"I don't care." She says smiling. "It was funny."

The night takes an interesting turn as after losing their tag match, Big Show and Kane are ordered to leave the arena by Stephanie; stating "It's time they think about the bigger picture and what's best for business. Until they can do that, they're out."

Siren then gets a look into the darker side of her ex-husband as he hears Lana and Rusev talking crap about Americans and takes a personal stance against it.

Rusev and Lana talk in the ring as the flag of the Russian Federation unravels above them. Rusev says this represents each and every one of the Americans. Axel is pathetic and delusional. Axel thinks he's a man from the past that is no more. Back in the real Hulkamania days, America was strong. All they do now is live in the past. Rusev says all Americans want to do is negotiate. They are spineless. If they had a spine, it would be made of Jell-O. If they had a heart, it would be filled with disease. If they had a soul, God would look down and spit on it.

John Cena angrily walks out to the stage and removes his shirt. Cena then runs down to the ring. Rusev kicks away at him, but Cena takes him down and applies the STF. The crowd begins chanting "USA." Cena releases the hold, pulls him to the middle of the ring, and reapplies the STF. Cena completely stretches him until he passes out. Referees and trainers run down to check on Rusev. Cena pours a bottle of water over his head to revive him before reapplying the STF for a third time. Rusev taps out. Lana begs Cena to let him go. Lana says they'll give him a match. Lana then says they'll give him a match at WrestleMania. She then says he'll get a United States Championship match at WrestleMania. Cena finally releases the hold and stares at Lana before smiling. Cena stares at the WrestleMania sign before leaving the ring.

"I see another title change at Wrestlemania." Seth comments.

"No doubt about that." Siren agrees before they head out to do their promo.

A random shot of JBL's hat is shown before the cameras go backstage to Seth Rollins and Siren with J&J Security in the locker room.

"Randy, can't be trusted boss."

"Oh come on Jamie. Will you cut this crap already? Look, you two need to understand one thing alright? You work for me alright. I know exactly what I'm doing. Have I ever steered you guys in the wrong direction? No. Absolutely not. I know when people are trustworthy and I know when they're liars."

The silence is broken by Siren coughing as she chokes on a drink of water. "Sorry. Went down the wrong pipe." She says turning away from them, but the fans can see her hiding a smile.

"Randy Orton is one of us guys. Hundred percent. I guarantee it and he likes to kid around, so what? Don't we all like to kid around? And maybe there was a little bit of truth in the stuff he said out there to you guys, Show and Kane. But I mean, do you really think that Randy is so stupid that he would get up in my face and lay out the plan that he was going to enact tonight? Or anytime in the future? That is absolutely crazy, why would he do that? That doesn't even make sense Jamie."

"We just got a bad feeling boss."

"Oh you have a bad feeling about this? Well let me ask you this? Were either of you the person who masterminded the destruction of The Shield or did either of you come up with the plan that brought back The Authority? Was that either of you guys huh? Oh, well who was it Jamie?"

"You boss, the Architect."

"Yeah that's right. I am the Architect and here is the blueprint for tonight; all of us stop worrying about Randy Orton. He's good man, you saw what happened last week. He's family guys. We gotta stop focusing on Roman Reigns because tonight we give Roman what he deserves. Trust me guys, I got this, trust me."

Rollins heads out followed by J&J, the camera zooms in on Siren who smirks looking after them. "Let's see how you like my blueprint for tonight, Architect."

Roman Reigns comes out to an extremely light reaction as replays are shown of Paul Heyman's promo from earlier in the night where he said that Reigns would fall to Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania.

Siren walks out alongside Rollins and J&J, then Randy makes his entrance. The group then heads down to the ring, the brunette tossing a wink to Roman as she stands by the apron. Randy Orton and Seth Rollins disagree over who will start the match and finally Orton agrees to let Rollins start.

They lock up and Reigns powers Rollins down before punching away at him. Rollins pulls Reigns face first into the turnbuckle before Reigns comes back with a right hand. Rollins kicks him away and pulls the top rope down to get him out of the ring. The referee keeps Rollins back before he catches J&J Security trying to interfere. Reigns attacks Rollins at ringside and puts him in the ring. Rollins goes to make a tag, but Orton isn't on the apron, he's down on the floor talking to J&J Security at ringside. Reigns hits Rollins with a back suplex powerbomb for a one count. Reigns wrenches the arm before digging his shoulder into him. Rollins punches him, but Reigns picks him up. Rollins elbows him in the face and chop blocks him. Reigns pushes him off, but Rollins comes back with a spinning slam for a one count. Rollins kicks Reigns in the midsection before putting him on the ropes. J&J Security barks some orders at Orton, and he takes exception to that. Orton gets in their faces before slapping Jamie Noble down much to the amusement of Siren

Rollins yells at J&J Security before sending them off to the back. Siren waves to them as Randy climbs back up to the corner.

"We're clear." She says to Randy, referring to all the other members of The Authority being gone.

Reigns then takes Rollins out with a fireman's carry flapjack. Reigns punches Rollins in the corner to no reaction. There's a light smattering of boos before Reigns hits a jumping clothesline. Reigns puts him in the corner, but he runs into a boot. Rollins sidesteps a clothesline and hits an Enziguri.

Rollins goes to make a tag to Orton, but Orton takes his hand away. Rollins begs him to not play around. Orton gives him double middle fingers, which the camera quickly cuts away from. Orton holds it up as Rollins turns into a spear from Reigns for the loss. Orton just stares at Rollins as Roman heads out.

The crowd is starting to buzz as Orton slowly gets in the ring. The Viper stands over Rollins and says, "Shame on you for not thinking I was going to do something." Orton grabs him by the hair and starts slapping and punching him before throwing him over the top rope. Rollins tries to scurry away from the ring, but Orton clotheslines him at ringside. Orton sends him into the steel steps, and Rollins takes out a cameraman in the process. Orton throws the top half of the stairs and puts Rollins' head on top of it. Orton asks if he remembers what he did. Orton says, "Unfortunately for you, I remember everything." Orton sends him into the other set of steel steps before slowly stalking him. Orton says he's not a part of this family. Orton grabs him by the head and asks how stupid he is before sending him into the barricade. Orton gives him some uppercuts before knocking him over the barricade.

Rollins tries to crawl away through the crowd, but Orton continues to stalk him. Orton has a steel chair, and he smacks it off Rollins' back. Orton continues to crack the chair off Rollins' broken body as Siren stands back watching; though her face doesn't hold a smile like it should at Rollins' pain. The crowd is not really responding to this.

Orton holds Rollins up for some people to take a picture. Orton cracks the chair off him one more time before talking some trash. Rollins sounds like he's crying. Orton knocks him back over by the barricade. Rollins is bleeding from the back as Orton hits a hanging DDT on the floor. Orton stands over him before looking at the commentary table.

Siren seeing what he's looking at gets in his way. "Randy, he's had enough. That's enough!"

The Viper grins at her before grabbing her long hair and whipping her into the barricade. She slams into it and crumples to the ground.

Orton then grabs Rollins and throws him over the commentary table. Orton removes the top from the table and tosses the monitors away. One of the monitors explodes against the ring apron. Orton stands him up on the table and delivers a very deliberate RKO, which destroys the table. The crowd finally reacts to something as Orton storms away.

Siren sits on the floor wincing in pain as trainers and EMTs are loading Seth Rollins onto a stretcher. She crawls over to him, guilt written across her face as Randy surveys the damage from the top of the ramp.

In a WWE exclusive the fans see Siren standing in her office when Orton walks in. The two stare at one another for a long moment. "That wasn't the plan Randy."

"I changed the plan." He says with a shrug. "What are you so upset about? You wanted to destroy Rollins, I just helped you out."

"Bring him and The Authority down yes, not send him to the hospital." She replied in a soft tone.

Randy smirks hearing the tone of her voice. "Is that concern I hear Siren? Feeling guilty? You starting to fall for the golden boy?"

He laughs as she remains silent then leaves. Siren leans back against the desk, her face conflicted.

"You and Randy put on one hell of a show tonight." Tasha commented as she sat on the edge of the bed; replacing a clean bandage over the cut on Colby's back.

"So did you baby." He said turning around and pulling her onto his lap. "You better be careful, people might start to think you actually care about me."

"Oh, dear…" She cooed wrapping her arms around his neck. "What a shame that would be." Laughing Colby pulled her in for a kiss.

With yet another week off Smackdown, the two split up at the airport the following morning; Colby heading to Iowa and Tasha to California to tape Teen Wolf.
