3 reasons why we will get a Shield triple threat at a future WrestleMania

Ever since the Hounds of Justice debuted on the main roster at Survivor Series 2012, they have wreaked havoc on both brands and claimed the main event scene for themselves.

In less than four years since their debut, every single member of The Shield has become a world champion. In fact, the WWE Universe witnessed an incredibly rare moment at the Money In The Bank 2016 PPV, when all three members of the faction held the title at some point of time in a span of an hour!

It was as clear as day from the very beginning that WWE was prepping the trio for bigger and better things. The fact that they spent a considerable amount of time in NXT, honing their mat skills, helped matters even more.

It's safe to say that all three members of the Shield are destined to become future Hall of Famers, with every single one of them forging their own path towards in-ring glory.

Back in 2016, in a desperate attempt to move the ratings meter and earn subscribers on the WWE Network, the WWE scheduled a Shield triple threat match for the Universal title at the Battleground PPV. The match was a top contender to become a WrestleMania main event in the near future, but unfortunately, it was wasted on a B-level PPV.

But that doesn't mean that this future WrestleMania main event has gone down the drain! Here are three reasons why we'll eventually get to see the Shield trio battle it out on the grandest stage of them all, somewhere down the line.

#3 The Money Match

It's all about the buyrate money!

Even though the fans have already witnessed the Shield members take on each other, it has been almost three years since that match happened. A LOT has changed since then. Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose have maintained their main event status and have even reunited once to one of the biggest ovations of the modern era.

There is a possibility that Ambrose is leaving WWE after The Show of Shows this year, but that doesn't mean that he is never coming back. And when he does come back, WWE won't wait long to pull the plug on the heavily anticipated match, that's guaranteed to sell out the biggest night in sports entertainment in record time.

#2 The big payoff

The match with a decade long history behind it!

If you've been watching pro wrestling for quite a while, you must be aware of the fact that WrestleMania is the show that's always reserved for big blowoffs to feuds that have been going on for a long time.

Be it Stone Cold vs The Rock, Shawn Michaels vs Bret Hart or Hogan vs Savage, WWE has always made sure to finish off these legendary rivalries at the Grandest Stage of Them All. All the above-mentioned wrestlers were the absolute best and the most popular Superstars of their respective eras, just like how Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose are the biggest Superstars of the present era. Unlike the multiple failed attempts at pushing stars like Del Rio in the past, WWE has succeeded in building the Shield members as forces to be reckoned with.

History will repeat itself eventually, and the blowoff match featuring three of the greatest Superstars of this generation will one day headline WrestleMania.

#1 A storyline for the ages

The debut, the implosion, and the reunion!

When you think of the greatest WrestleMania matches of all time, one thing that always stands out is the storyline that goes on for months before the eventual match.

With Austin vs The Rock III at WrestleMania XIX, WWE had 4 years of history between the two Superstars to showcase and promote the match. With "The End of an Era" Hell in a Cell match at WrestleMania 28, The Undertaker's decade long rivalry with Triple H was highlighted.

Imagine what could the WWE do with the Shield, heading into their WrestleMania match! There'll be almost a decade worth of footage to promote the triple threat. The trio's destructive debut, the Shield's implosion, and their separate paths as main event players- there would be tons of material to cover. This could possibly result in the greatest buildup a match has ever had in the history of the business.
