What if Bobby Lashley joins The Shield?

#3 A power struggle

Lashley and Reigns may be vying for control of The Shield before long.

The Shield has typically been portrayed as a fairly egalitarian unit, with no one clear leader, and an emphasis on everyone involved being elite. Despite this original style, the latest incarnation has featured Roman Reigns a bit more than his associates as the reigning Universal Champion and the one Rollins and Ambrose are there to, at least in part, protect him and his title reign.

If Bobby Lashley were to enter the Shield mix, he’d do so with a clean win over Reigns from Extreme Rules under his belt. Reigns has beaten Lashley, too, but if anything that might add fuel to the fire as these two men may well find themselves vying for the leadership role or bragging rights as the top member of The Shield. An issue between the two big men may cause even more friction down below as Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins tried to assert themselves in a captain’s role.
