The Shield was one of the most dominant factions when they debuted in 2012. The trio destroyed everyone who came in their path and showed them justice. In 2014, the Shield disbanded after Seth Rollins turned on Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns. All the men moved on to better things.
However, WWE again reunited them in 2017, but due to Dean Ambrose's injury, the Shield was again disbanded. Dean Ambrose returned from injury last week and this week WWE shockingly reunited the three men and reformed the Shield.

For some reasons, the reunion of Shield is a bad idea. Here are 5 reasons why reuniting the Shield is a bad idea:
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#5. No new feuds for them
Is there any new feud for the Shield as a whole in WWE?
The trio of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose might be left without any six-man rivalry. They dominated Braun Strowman, but will it help them find a trio group to face.
Everyone knows Braun might not even team up with anyone to destroy the Shield. The fans need them to feud with Undisputed Era or SaniTy, but it is not possible considering they are on different brands. We also know Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins are champions and they need to defend their championships
Are we in for a new Sheild's SIX-MAN Rivalry? The answer is no.
#4. It might decline the credibility of Universal and Intercontinental Championship
Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns won their respective titles at SummerSlam. But a Shield reunion might affect their title reigns.
If Shield enters a feud, it will lead to Roman Reigns not defending his title weekly like he promised on Raw. Seth Rollins too might not defend his title on a weekly basis like he used to during his first Intercontinental title run. That made him the best champion in WWE.
Not only it will affect their reigns, it will also decrease their credibility as a champion.
#3. No title matches for Dean Ambrose
With the recent reunion of the Shield, Dean Ambrose might be worst affected.
Dean Ambrose is the only person in the trio who is not a champion. Dean Ambrose is one of the best characters on Raw, but still he remains in the Shield and doesn't turn heel like rumored, he might only act a sidekick to Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose. He will only act as a helping hand to them.
Dean Ambrose should not be treated like that.
#2. Seth Rollins will not move to Universal Title Picture
Seth Rollins is a star who should not be in a singles title picture.
Seth Rollins is the most over and the best wrestler on Raw. The fans wanted to see Rollins as Universal Champion a long time ago. It was also rumoured that Seth Rollins might face Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam, but his place was taken by Roman Reigns. With Reigns as champion, Rollins might be out of Universal Title picture for the foreseeable future.
The Shield reunion might not help Rollins and not give him the place he deserves and the fans want.
#1. It is all about Roman Reigns and not his buddies
The Shield was always reunited to put over Roman Reigns.
Roman Reigns is booed whenever he comes out to fight. His opponents are always cheered. However, WWE knows the fans love the Shield. The only reason the Shield reunited was to put Reigns over. Reigns is the current Universal Champion and the future face of the company. WWE wants to make him popular by reuniting him with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins.
WWE does not plan anything bigger for his brothers, but they want Roman to be the top face. Because of this, the Shield is reunited and will not be broken now until Roman becomes popular with the crowd. We don't know what will happen to Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. Let us see how WWE plays this.
