5 Most Critically Acclaimed WWE Betrayals In Recent Memory

#1 The Architect sells out to the Authority and betrays The Shield

This one's right in history

While the repercussions of all those previously mentioned betrayals were immense, none of them were as shocking and intriguing as this one.

The Evolution's feud with The Shield catapulted the latter faction on a pedestal, with the aim of getting all three superstars over in the business. Considering that Roman Reigns was always tipped to become the face of the company, it was Seth Rollins who betrayed the Hounds of Justice and sold his soul to the Authority.

In what was a pretty incredible move, all the three superstars went to different directions and became three of the biggest superstars in the WWE today.

These three individuals continued to be associated with each other throughout, but that chair shot altered the entire complexion of the business and led to one of the greatest betrayals in WWE history.
