All because of John Cena.
Tonight's episode of Monday Night Raw in Corpus Christi, Texas closed with the newly reinstated Authority, Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, capping off their show long troll job of Cena by firing everyone who assisted him at Survivor Series.
That would be Dolph Ziggler, Ryback, and Erick Rowan, all three of whom were defeated in various unfair matches throughout the evening.
All three have already been moved to the Alumni section on the official company website.
They aren't actually fired, of course. It's an angle and if WWE history tells us anything it's likely none of the three miss even a single episode of television. Cena himself was once fired and appeared on Raw the very next week.
So don't expect them to be gone long, if at all. It's just a matter of how they write them back on the show. Perhaps it will have something to do with that goofy face painted guy Triple H mentioned a few times tonight.
