Welcome to 411’s WWE Smackdown Report 11.14.14

* We get highlights from Raw.

* The show opened with the return of Chris Jericho and the Highlight Reel. Jericho was glad to be back, and wanted to know about the dude in the Bunny suit. He speculated that it could actually be Funaki. We’ll need to get the I-Team on this. Jericho moved on and introduced his guests, The Authority (Triple H and Stephanie). Jericho questioned why they wanted to be on his show, and Stephanie basically said that they wanted the Highlight Reel on Smackdown because they always give the fans what they want. She said that she was doing for the fans what her dad always did for the WWE Superstars, give them challenges and a chance to rise to the occasion. Where would Superman be without Lex Luthor, and where would the WWE be without a McMahon in charge? Stephanie questioned who else could do the job that they do, and Jericho said that anyone could. After some mockery by Jericho, Triple H got serious and said that he doesn’t need anyone’s acceptance. He told Jericho to enjoy his fun now, because once the Survivor Series is over they will be the ones laughing. He also said that Jericho needs to keep that in mind the next time he comes calling and begging for a fix of the WWE crowd, because maybe they will erase him from the WWE’s history. The Authority left as Jericho mocked them some more and sang “hey-hey, goodbye” with the crowd to close out the opening, 15-minute talking segment.

Ambrose made his way out, got in the ring but Bray bailed to the floor. He said that Ambrose was predictable and too hostile. Bray says that whenever he wants to see Ambrose, all he has to do is push a few buttons and he appears. Bray then said that is Ambrose wants to fight that he can fight him, and punish him like he wants to punish his father. Bray entered the ring and Ambrose got to punch him.
