12: Seth Rollins turns on The Shield
Trending
The Shield are the most dominant faction in the current era of the WWE. They ran roughshod through the entire WWE roster following their debut and plowed through both midcarders and veterans alike, remaining undefeated in six-man tags for almost six months following their debut. The trio worked like a well-oiled machine and they took on whatever opponent was put in front of them and eventually started feuding with Triple H who brought in Randy Orton and Batista to reform Evolution to take on The Shield.
The Shield vanquished Evolution in two pay-per-view matches including a six-man elimination tag team match at Payback 2014 in which The Shield won without any of its members eliminated. The night after, Triple H came out on Raw to address The Shield and told them that since he couldn’t defeat them, he had to activate plan B.
At this point, Seth Rollins took out his brothers from behind with a steel chair, to the audible gasp of the audience present. Rollins turned his back on Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns to align with Triple H and The Authority, effectively ending The Shield.
Will The Shield reunite ever again against a common enemy? I sure hope so.
