The Authority tries to get things started off tonight and they are announcing that Orton will defend in at the Chamber.

The crowd starts the Daniel Bryan chants out early and the Authority brings Bryan out.

Bryan with a tongue in cheek tells the crowd not to chant Yes! because the Authority doesn't like it.

He says that people are talking about his match as the best, and HHH calls it a nice little effort.

Bryan says the biggest disappointment was him not being in the Rumble.

Stephanie says it was for his health and well being.

Bryan points out the gauntlet matches they put him through.

HHH says its a fair point but they didn't want to mistreat him again.

Stephanie says that he is being selfish and she has many to think about.  The fans aren't just here for him.

The crowd loudly disagrees.

Bryan says the greatness of wrestling is coming and cheering for whoever the fans want but the Authority should at least listen.

Daniel Bryan chants erupts and Bryan demands to be put in the Elimination Chamber match.

He gets face to face with HHH and says they aren't leaving until he gets what he deserves.

HHH says they aren't alone and the Shield hits the scene.

Bryan quickly grabs a chair and tries to fend themm off but he is quickly overwhelmed.

Sheamus makes his way for the save but he is quickly overwhelmed and gets stomped on.

John Cena now!

Cena is enough to help turn the odds as the combined might of Bryan, Cena, and Sheamus are able to send the Shield into retreat.
