WWE Smackdown Report 6.13.14

Reigns and Ambrose make their way to the ring to kick off the show. Ambrose says he won't tell us what we already know. What the Authority is trying to do is clear as day. They won't wait for Triple H to deal, because they will turn the table on him. As for their former business partner Seth Rollins; he's shutting down the Rollins business for good. Reigns takes over and says that he hopes Orton enjoys his night off, because he will get his hands on him. Orton is the ass of the WWE, not the face. He adds that Orton is also a spoiled little kid, getting everything he wants from Daddy Triple H. He notes Orton didn't have to qualify for the MITB match, and that maybe they will be involved and beat Orton to the title. Triple H appears on screen and says only one of them can try to qualify tonight. He flips a coin and says Ambrose gets the chance to qualify. Ambrose will face Bray Wyatt later tonight. Triple H then says that Reigns is banned from ringside, along with the Wyatt Family. Ambrose is also banned from ringside, when Reigns faces Bad News Barrett, next.
