The next week on Raw, Seth and the Authority addressed the abduction of Jaime Noble and Joey Mercury as they also released the video the kidnapper(s) gave to them as they say there will be consequences on whoever did this to them.

Soon, the match between Seth Rollins and John Cena comes by as it was a Lumberjack Match with a few superstars that support the Authority. It's quite obvious that Cena is at a disadvantage in this, but he still went along in the match for Rowan, Ziggler, and Ryback.

Cena would take advantage of the match until the lumberjacks pull him out of the ring and assaulted him. This made the crowd boo until a loud noise was heard, which made everyone stop and cover their ears.

Cole: Oh God!

Jerry: Someone turn it off!

Soon the noise slowly fades, much to everyone's relief.

JBL: Jesus. That nearly made my ears bleed.

Soon, the titantron switches into a dark room where there was Jaime Noble and Joey Mercury chained up on the ceiling.

Michael's It's J&J Security!

Jerry: I thought they were kidnapped!

JBL: Well, they certainly don't look alright, that's for sure!

Seth and the others look on in shock as a note was left of Joey's chest, saying, 'you better find them. They're at the boiler room'. 

Soon, Cena was rolled back inside the ring and Seth tries to win but Cena still as the advantage until the lumberjacks came in for the save. While at the is going on, the security team came into the boiler room to help J&J. However, once they pulled them down, Jaime's head falls off, making everyone startle in fear.

Jerry: Oh My God!

Soon, it was revealed to be a fake head.

JBL: Wait. That's a mannequin head!

In the end, Seth won, as everyone realized that those were mannequins, not Jaime and Joey. Seth couldn't believe they were fooled by this. Everyone thought that Joey and Jaime were there but they were mannequins. Soon, one of the officers pulls out a Joker Playing Card that was on one for the mannequins.

Seth is seen seething in anger that whoever kidnapped J&J, was mocking him and the Authority. It's like someone is playing some kind of sick joke on them and in the process everyone else. He's gonna make sure whoever's responsible with pay.

*later*

Stephanie, Triple H, and Seth are discussing what happened earlier.

Stephanie: That was unacceptable. Whoever did this is practically loving these mind games.

Seth: Look, guys. We need to find Joey and Jaime. They have to be suffering from absolute pain right now.

Triple H: We know, Seth. But we can't find them anywhere here. The security team looked around and there is no trace of them.

Seth: *growls* This guy's getting on my nerves, Hunter. And when I find him...I'll make sure to make him pay for making us look like idiots.

Hunter: We get that, Seth. But, right now, we need to focus on the contract signing with Brock Lesnar and John Cena.

Stephanie: We already have more security going around in case if they find them and the kidnapper.

Seth nods as they walk out of the office. They walk out of the room, only for the cameraman to see another Joker Card taped onto the door, as it said this.

*later, in the ring*

The Authority, Brock and Paul Heyman, and John are in the ring, preparing to sign the contract for the Title Match at the Royal Rumble. It goes with Seth being overconfident and cocky, while Paul speaks for Lesnar until Lesnar spoke how he conquered Undertaker, Triple H, and John Cena, and he was damn sure he will conquer the Architect.

Soon, the three sighed the contract while Seth still runs his mouth on his opponents until things escalated. Rollins goes to hit Cena with the briefcase, but he ducks it. Cena punches him to the corner until Lesnar hits him with a German Suplex.

Lesnar gives Rollins a big German Suplex. When Lesnar gets up, Cena gives him an Attitude Adjustment through the table. Cena yells at Triple H and takes off his shirt. Rollins then spins Cena around, kicks him, and hits a Curb Stomp.

Rollins then sees Lesnar coming to, and he gives him a Curb Stomp for good measure! Rollins celebrates in the ring as The Authority claps for him. Suddenly, they heard yelling going on as the titantron shows the hallways covered in smoke as security and employee rushed through the smoke.

Soon, some brought fire extinguishers, which made everyone thought there was a fire. Slowly but surely, the smoke clears as it was revealed the Authority's office was on fire!!

Michael: What the hell?!

JBL: What happened?!

Jerry: Someone set the Authority's Office on fire!

The Authority and the crowd were in disbelief. A fire was set on their office without anyone knowing and everything was destroyed.

The Authority Logo was badly burned as the room has smoke and ash around it. Soon, on the floor, there were a lot of dollar bills that were burned as well, even some that are still burning.

Triple H and Stephanie were furious about this. They walk out of the ring and quickly run to the ramp to go backstage with Seth, Kane, and Big Show following them.

They went to the back to see the damage to the office until paramedics come out of nowhere with a stretcher. Seth and Kane follow them until they saw a terrifying sight.

Michael: Oh...my...God.

Seth and Kane were shocked as the security team lowers Joey and Jaime down to the floor gently. Both had their clothes ripped and having cuts and bruises on their bodies. Both what was terrifying was that they're unconscious but their eyes are open and they had an unnatural smile on their faces.

Soon, a note was found on Jaime's pocket as one of the doctors gave it to Seth. It read: 'to the Real Seth Rollins* as he opens it and reads it.

Sweet as Sugar.
Hard as Ice.
Hurt me Once,
I will
Break you Twice.

Seth and Kane are visibly shaken by the small poem. It was obvious that someone is after him but they didn't know what or who. It couldn't be Dean or Roman. Not even Randy Orton or even John Cena and his crew. This is someone that was smarter than anyone. Much like the Architect.

Suddenly, the cameraman caught something disturbing. A security guard walks behind Seth and Kane and gives them a strange glare and a smile. What's strange is that his face has scars on the cheeks that look like a smile.

He walks away from the camera view with the audience even more disturbed by his appearance. Seth and Kane didn't notice him as they were more focused on the poem and J&J.

Soon, Joey and Jaime were carried away via stretcher as Kane and Seth followed them. Then, Seth found another Joker card, this time it has nothing on it.

But then he realized something. This card was left behind him. That means...the kidnapper, this 'Joker' was there and left the card there.

Seth: *mutters* Impossible.

Kane: What was that, Seth?

Seth: *sighs* The kidnapper was right under our noses this whole time. *shows him the card*

Kane's eyes widen in shock.

Kane: How? How did he manage to get in here without anyone noticing?

Seth: That's what I'm wondering. However, he's smart. Very smart.

Kane: We need to tell Stephanie and Triple H about this.

Seth nods as they quickly walked away, not noticing someone staring at them from afar.

?: Getting rid of you...*pulls out Joker card and lifts it to his eye* is going to be easier than I thought. Hehehehehehehehe.
