In WWE, fans mostly see superstars fighting for themselves in singles matches or performing alongside their teammates in tag team matches. However, there are instances of three superstars aligning themselves to form a trio.
Not just a trio, there have been times where more than three stars align to form a faction. Throughout history, there have been multiple factions that dominated the landscape of Titanland.
In this article, we will look at some trios that left an invaluable mark in the history of the business. The list is purely based on the writer's opinion, but make sure to offer your own opinions and lists in the comments section below.
Here are the five greatest trios in WWE history.
#5. The Bloodline is among the greatest trios in WWE history
The Bloodline has dominated WWE's blue brand for more than a year now. It is composed of Roman Reigns, Jimmy, and Jey Uso. The name is perfect for the trio considering that the members are cousins who belong to the Anoa'i family bloodline.
Roman Reigns became the Universal Champion at SummerSlam 2020 after turning heel. Jimmy Uso tried to turn his brother back to a babyface, leading to a rivalry between the two. After Reigns defeated Uso, the latter joined him. A few months later, Jimmy Uso returned and joined his cousins, forming The Bloodline.
Paul Heyman is also considered a member of the group as The Tribal Chief's special counsel. However, when it comes to wrestlers, Reigns and Usos are the only official associates.
As a stable, the three have been on an absolute path of dominance. The Usos have been the SmackDown Tag Team Champions since last July, while Roman Reigns has become the longest-reigning Universal Champion of all time.
The cousins have excelled as babyfaces as well, with their feud with Baron Corbin, Dolph Ziggler, and Bobby Roode being appreciated by everyone. Hopefully, they will stay together for an extended period to solidify their name as the strongest faction of this era.
#4. The original nWo is one of the greatest trios in WWE history
This trio has changed the history of WWE to the greatest extent. The New World Order was a faction formed in WCW in 1996. Three of the biggest names in the industry joined forces to form the greatest force in the pro-wrestling industry.
Scott Hall and Kevin Nash made an unexpected move to World Championship Wrestling, also announcing their intentions to take over the company alongside a mystery member. The mystery member was revealed to be Hulk Hogan, who turned heel by attacking Randy Savage.
Several new members were added to the nWo, but the original trio was the one that started it all and is remembered as the best version of the faction.
Together, the nWo dominated the landscape of WCW, leading to an immense increase in ratings for the show. WCW eventually competed with WWE to become the biggest pro wrestling company in the world - all thanks to the nWo.
#3. The original D-X was a keystone of The Attitude Era in WWE's history
If anyone knows about WWE, they probably know about D-Generation X. Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Chyna joined forces to form a trio that became one of the most popular acts of all time.
Michaels and Triple H had been friends for a long time before Chyna joined them as their manager. Together, they began to create some of the most controversial segments, becoming the hottest thing in the business.
Later on, newer members like Road Dogg, Billy Gunn, and X-Pac were added to the faction, making it reach greater heights than ever. In 2019, the faction was immortalized by being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
#2. The Shield is one of the greatest trios in WWE history
At Survivor Series 2012, three mysterious men helped CM Punk retain his WWE title against Ryback. The trio was called The Shield, composed of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose.
The three called themselves the Hounds of Justice, who began to assault major stars like John Cena and The Rock. They quickly made a name for themselves as the strongest force in the company. Within one year, all three members had titles around their waists.
They went on to defeat prominent teams like The Brothers of Destruction and Evolution before Seth Rollins betrayed his stablemates to join Triple H. After the faction was disbanded, all three went on to become Grand Slam Champions and had amazing rivalries together.
As of now, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins are important assets of the company while Dean Ambrose (now known as Jon Moxley) has become one of the most important names in AEW.
#1. The New Day is among the greatest trios in WWE history
The New Day is arguably the most-loved trio of all time, with Kofi Kingston, Big E, and Xavier Woods as its members. They have been together for about eight years, the longest any faction has remained together in WWE.
The careers of the three were on a decline when Woods invited Big E and Kingston to join him. They debuted as heels, but soon gained the support of the fans. Together, they went on to become 11-time tag team champions.
As team members, Kingston and Big E became World Champions while Xavier Woods became King of The Ring. The New Day has also won multiple Slammy Awards for its impressive performance and attire.
Even after getting divided due to the brand split, they have managed to get together from time to time. Hopefully, they will become the only trio on this list to never leave each other's side.
