The main event of WWE WrestleMania 41 Night One will see two former Shield members collide in a Triple Threat Match, also featuring CM Punk. Fans expecting some sort of reunion between Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins may be glad to know the following update.

During a recent episode of Live Q&A on Sportskeeda WrestleBinge, WrestleVotes said fans may see a little bit of "Shield flashbacks" during the upcoming Triple Threat Match featuring Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and CM Punk.

"I think they work together a little bit too. I don't think it's for the whole match but I do think you'll see some Shield flashbacks for a portion of the contest." [From 25:25 onwards]

Roman Reigns got some bitter flashbacks this past Monday on RAW when the OTC was struck with a chair shot to the back by Seth Rollins. The spot looked eerily similar to the faction's implosion more than a decade ago on the red brand.

The former Architect was quick to capitalize on the bit with a curb stomp on Reigns. This was the second consecutive week wherein Rollins had flattened both Punk and Reigns with a curb stomp.

It remains to be seen which of these three men will stand tall in the ring after the match goes down at WrestleMania 41 this Saturday.

If given the chance to manage a star from the Attitude Era, he would choose The British Bulldog, as he believes Davey Boy Smith was a terrific worker and could've benefitted from having a mouthpiece for his lack of mic skills.
