It is amazing to think that every single time since the Shield broke up in 2014, their Triple Powerbomb (when they teamed up to take out a common foe) got a massive reaction.

Fans loved seeing these three individually gifted performers, united for a common purpose.

So imagine my surprise when other than their excellent Survivor Series match, they didn’t work as a team. Roman Reigns continued to fight for The Intercontinental title on his own. His interactions with the other two was severely limited.

Rollins and Ambrose didn’t fare that much better. They had many singles matches against Sheamus and Cesaro and they didn’t back up their friends on numerous occasions. It is a strange brotherhood when you are not around to help.
