#3 The Shield

It wasn'
It wasn't meant to be

Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns debuted at the 2012 WWE Survivor Series and overnight had become there must watch superstars in all of WWE. The Shield was incredibly dominant and successful for 2 years, bagging the Tag Team titles (Rollins and Reigns) and the United States Championship (Ambrose).

They had many memorable and match of the year contenders with Daniel Bryan, Kane, The Usos, the Rhodes Brothers and Evolution, among more. The trio came to an end in the summer of 2014 when Seth Rollins shockingly turned heel on his brothers in arms and joined 'The Authority'.

Fans had been hoping for a reunion as early as the months following Rollins turn as many believed the group should have lasted until the end of the year before splitting up. The big reunion finally came after 3 years in 2017.

All 3 men had successful WWE Championship runs and were established as solo main event players, but WWE decided to see what would happen out of a heavily teased and hyped reunion. Through no one's fault, the results were poor.

A mere few weeks after reuniting, Roman Reigns fell ill with a bad case of the mumps and missed a month of action. He was replaced by Kurt Angle for a big match The Shield had scheduled with The Miz, Kane and The Barr for TLC.

Following Roman's return, the trio had some fun for just about a month before Dean Ambrose would go down with a serious triceps injury, which required surgery and at least 9 months on the shelf. It is currently unknown if the group will reunite again upon Ambrose return later this year.
