their stance is he's a B+ guy, they like having him on the roster, but they don't want him competing for the title. that's fine, but they should be doing everything they can to calm down the crowd's reaction because their characters should want the crowd to see him as B+ guy too (which would just push him further). but instead they have the official yes shirts, tell his fans to voice their support on twitter, and then come out a few weeks ago and say "maybe this guy should be the face of the company if he beats you, orton." it's inconsistent, but the authority hasn't been that consistent on anything.
