2533311, there's a lot of pieces up in the air that makes things interesting

How long does Shane get to party?
Where are Vince/Stephanie/Hunter?
Who sent the Bullet Club?
How long does Reigns try to go this alone?

To even begin brainstorming through this gives their creative team way more credit than they've earned in recent years, but you can pretty easily see a fun "Civil War" kind of scenario pitting Shane's WWE against Hunter/Steph's. A disgruntled Owens makes perfect sense as a hired hand for the Authority. Maybe Hunter sent the Bullet Club to sabotage Styles, a guy who after all only got this chance because of Shane. Then there's the intrigue of John Cena and Seth Rollins - who do they side with?

(SHIELD vs BULLET CLUB??? Stop. Stop. You know this won't happen.)

Again, there's no way they're good enough to plot some massive multi-layered program like this, but it could be so great. Coming off of a Wrestlemania that was far too reliant on stars of yesteryear, the program the last few weeks seems surprisingly fresh and has left ample reason to get excited.

I think that it all just seems too surreal for there to not be a pay off. Think about this a minute - AJ Styles and the Bullet Club are involved in a major program with the WWE champion and we don't know why. Shane McMahon is a welcome addition to the character roster after having been gone almost a decade. Surely the grand reveal to all of this will be clumsy and not what we want, but there must be reasons for all of this.
