The Shield
The Shield were all called up from NXT together. Originally the team was supposed to be Ambrose, Seth Rollins, and Kassius Ohno, but Vince McMahon made the decision to replace the former Chris Hero with Roman Reigns.
They originally were minions of CM Punk, ostensibly dedicated to justice but only interfering on his behalf. Then the Shield broke out on their own, and became one of the most dominant groups in wrestling history.
All three members of the Shield would go on to win the 'big one,' a WWE World Championship title. Outrageously popular yet edgy, the Shield is one of the biggest booking success stories in recent WWE history.
The Hounds of Justice wreaked havoc on the WWE roster before they disbanded after Seth Rollins betrayed the group. Then they re formed, and broke up, and reformed, and broke up for the allegedly final time when Dean Ambrose announced his departure from the WWE.
Though the group has disbanded, they remain an iconic stable in the WWE's illustrious history.
