Seth Rollins: WWE star comments on possible Shield reunion in the future

Seth Rollins has commented on the possibility of seeing The Shield ever getting back together in WWE, and it’s not good news for fans of the trio.

The Shield made their infamous and iconic debut at the 2012 Survivor Series, when Rollins, alongside Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose, interfered in the nights main event that saw CM Punk, John Cena and Ryback. Their involvement saw Punk keep his WWE Championship in the Triple Threat match for the title. 

It was the jumping-off point for the trio, who would become one of the most dominant factions in WWE history, before Rollins eventually turned on the Hounds of Justice and joined The Authority in June 2014.

Since that spilt, we have seen the group reform for small greatest hits tours, but we’re yet to see a full run back together as The Shield – especially since Ambrose left WWE to join AEW as Jon Moxley. 

Speaking in a new interview with Digital Spy, Rollins was asked about a potential reunion in the future and sadly the 36-year-old feels it’s unlikely you’ll ever see them back together again. 

I can say that, and maybe this might come back to bite me at some point, but I just don’t think you’re ever going to see the three of us team up ever again.

It wouldn’t look the way you want it to look. It wouldn’t be like the old days in The Shield, it would be a different animal. I think we’re all just too big stars with too big personalities at this point.

We needed each other back then and now none of us need the other one,” he continued. “We’re at a point where we’re all standalone stars on a different level. So to have to kind of minimize that to fit into each other’s moulds, I just don’t see it ever happening again. I think it would look a whole lot different than the next time
