In this week's edition of Monday Night Raw, The Shield took their revenge against everyone who attacked them last week.

This week, Ambrose and Rollins also attacked Ziggler and McIntyre and after that, the acting General Manager told them not to show up. However, they didn't listen to him and later showed up by saying they are not The Shield but just Ambrose and Rollins.

They also threatened him with an arrest of his own. Later, Corbin booked a match between Ambrose and Rollins vs Ziggler and McIntyre for the Raw Tag Team championships.

Today, we will take a look at three reasons why The Shield were added into the Raw Tag Team Title picture.


#3 To improve the condition of the Raw Tag Team division

Ever since Strowman and 10-year-old Nicholas won the Raw Tag Team Championships at WrestleMania 34, the Tag Team Titles have become a joke.

The division also suffered a lot of things in the recent past, the company tried to improve the condition of it by pairing Bray Wyatt and Matt Hardy and even giving them the titles. However, this didn't help the division and later the B-team won the championships.

Then, the condition of Tag Team division became worse but last week Ziggler and McIntyre became the new tag team champions instead of The Revival winning the gold which they deserved.

To make the title more relevant, WWE needed big tag teams and maybe this is why The Shield was added to the title picture.

#2 To turn Ambrose heel

The rumours regarding the heel turn of Ambrose have emerged in the past few months, but still, the Lunatic hasn't turned heel yet. The fans are expecting his heel turn in every pay-per-view but it seems like it's not going to happen anytime soon. However, there are still chances that in his upcoming match Ambrose might turn heel.

Most of the time, superstars turn heel when they are unsuccessful in winning the championship. Let's assume that somehow because of Rollins, Ambrose doesn't become the Raw Tag Team Champion and because of that frustration, he turns heel by attacking his partner.

This seems very unlikely at the moment but we can't forget that in the WWE, there's always a chance for anything to happen.

#1 Because the WWE wants to introduce Rollins and Ambrose in the feud between Reigns and Strowman

Currently, the Universal Champion Roman Reigns and Money In The Bank winner Braun Strowman are feuding with each other and as always, Reigns isn't getting the support from the fans. But still, the company is trying their best to get the fans behind him.

While the idea of turning Strowman heel isn't helping Reigns, I wonder if adding two more people might do the trick.

Fans love The Shield more than they love Reigns and instead of just having a feud between Reigns vs strowman, maybe the company wants to book a feud between The Shield vs The Dogs Of War and in this case, Roman will be cheered by the fans.
