The Shield faction consisted of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose. The Shield made their debut in 2012, they were having great run, but Seth Rollins turned on them, which paved way for their singles run.
Seth Rollins recently gave an interview to The Ringer, where he talked about The Shield. Seth says The Shield members were all using The Shield as a catalyst to take over the industry.
“We were all using the Shield as a catalyst to take over the industry and to rebuild it in our image. And if you look at where all of us are sitting right now, I think we’re exactly where we thought we would be in some capacity 12 years ago when we started this journey together.“
“Mox is over in AEW being a revolutionary, trying to reframe everything in his image. Roman sits at the head of the table, as he believes he should, and here I am hustling, busting my ass every single week to try to make the future of the industry better.”
“We’re leading the charge for the next generation and what the future of business is going to look like.”
