Dolph Ziggler comes to the ring but The Authority meets him, and Triple H asks him what side Dolph will choose for Survivor Series. He plays all the scenarios out and says Cena could get the glory while Dolph wins for that team, and it always seems like Cena is the glass ceiling that Dolph can’t break through. HHH says Cena isn’t even here right now and it looks like he doesn’t care about his team, so maybe Dolph does gamble and it works out. He says Dolph could win titles and get money and girls, but they are all maybes if he stays with Cena.
HHH tells Dolph to stick with what he knows, and Dolph has the talent and ablility, so he could make the ‘maybes’ turn into certainty. Dolph says if he can get whatever he wants… he wants The Authority gone, and he wants them all gone for good!
