5 WWE Superstars who could have joined The Shield 

#4. Current WWE Superstar Damian Priest could have been part of The Shield

Damian Priest may seem as though he's a wildcard for a fourth member of The Shield, but there is a valid argument.

Priest wasn't part of WWE at the time that The Shield was fighting against the injustice in the company, but he currently has the right look and would have been a fun addition to the team.

Priest may not have much injustice to fight against since he has been pushed hard throughout his career, but he is a star who started in NXT and has fought hard against the system to get where he is.

Like all three members of The Shield, he was forced to change his name when he debuted in NXT and has since become a stand-out star on the main roster. Priest is a sure-fire future world champion, the same as Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and Dean Ambrose in their early careers and someone that the company would have gambled on if The Shield was being put together today.

It's interesting to think how different the team would have been if it had come together any later than it did.
