he aftermath of Survivor Series left a palpable tension in the air, both inside and outside the ring. The WWE Universe was still buzzing with the exhilaration of the War Games match, where the Romanov Mafia emerged victorious over the Authority. However, the celebration was short-lived as the Authority, led by Triple H, regrouped with new members and renewed determination.

Inside the ring, Triple H stood with a steely gaze, flanked by his newest recruits Jeff Baker and Jeff Connelly. The two men exuded confidence as they stood alongside Triple H, ready to make their mark under the Authority's banner.

"Ladies and gentlemen," Triple H's voice boomed through the arena, commanding attention. "Tonight, the Authority begins a new chapter. Jeff Baker, Jeff Connelly, welcome to the fold."

The WWE Universe responded with a mixture of boos and jeers, clearly displeased with the Authority's tactics and the addition of new members. But Triple H remained undeterred, his focus fixed on reclaiming control over Monday Night Raw.

As the night progressed, tensions reached a boiling point during the main event for the World Tag Team Titles. Demitri and Isaac Romanov, fresh off their victory at Survivor Series, faced off against Jeff Baker and Jeff Connelly, with the gold on the line. The arena crackled with anticipation as the match got underway.

In the closing moments of the match, chaos erupted at ringside. Aiden Cross, lurking at ringside, seized an opportunity to distract the referee, drawing his attention away from the action inside the ring. With the referee's back turned, Jeff Connelly took advantage of the situation, delivering a low blow to Isaac Romanov and securing an illicit pinfall.

The bell rang, declaring Jeff Baker and Jeff Connelly the new World Tag Team Champions. The WWE Universe erupted in a chorus of boos, outraged by the underhanded tactics employed by the Authority to secure victory once again.

Backstage, cameras captured a different scene unfolding. The Authority, battered and bruised from their earlier altercation with the Romanov Mafia, nursed their wounds in the aftermath of their match. AJ Thunder, Xander Blaze, and Modern Day Superstar lay scattered on the floor, their bodies testament to the intensity of the brawl.

Uncle Slam, Oleg Romanov, Axton Ray, and Alex Romanov stood tall over their fallen adversaries, their presence a stark reminder of the Romanov Mafia's resilience and determination. The camera zoomed in on the defiant glare in Alex Romanov's eyes as he addressed Triple H, who stood at a distance, his expression a mask of frustration and anger.

"Triple H," Alex's voice carried a steely resolve. "If you think adding numbers will secure your reign, then know this: the Romanov Mafia stands ready. We will meet you at every turn, and we will shrink your Authority down to size, one member at a time."

Triple H's jaw clenched visibly, his gaze locked with Alex's unwavering stare. He understood the challenge laid before him by the Romanov Mafia. The war between these two factions was far from over, and the fallout from Survivor Series had set the stage for an escalating conflict that would redefine the landscape of Monday Night Raw.

As the scene faded to black, the WWE Universe was left with a sense of anticipation and uncertainty. The battle lines had been drawn, and the rivalry between the Romanov Mafia and the Authority had reached a new level of intensity. With championships, pride, and power at stake, the fallout from Survivor Series promised to shape the future of WWE in ways no one could predict.
