With rumors of Reigns defending his title against the Rock or Drew McIntyre at Wrestlemania, there was very little chance of any other superstar winning the title from him before the event.

WWE doesn't want these wrestlers back - Find out now!

The Shield was put together to support Reigns which resulted in Seth Rollins taking a back seat with his Intercontinental Championship and giving the group priority.

As discussed in the previous slide, Roman's announcement led to an unexpected turn from Ambrose, which means the tag championships are again vacant and it also frees up Rollins to again start defending his title.
