If reigns and ambrose recruit this feud will get crazier cool

 

[klunderbunker]

What do you mean not right?

This makes sense last night, not tonight.

 

[Slash-LN]

I didn't see it coming but it makes sense.
Rollins seems to be the overshadowed one in the group for the most part.

If done right this could elevate him without devaluing the other two. It has my interest for sure.

 

[HBK/RKO]

To the people saying the Shield will add a new member, it won't happen. They are going to be all moving on to singles careers. The Shield may get a partner just for the MITB ppv but after that, Roman Reigns climb to the top starts.

 

[Mac Attack]

I'm actually really happy with RAW overall today though.

 

[JoeFromTomsRiver]

It does feel like a swerve for the sake of being a swerve.

Why? Because you didn't see it coming? Those are the swerves that work, not the ones you predicted online months ahead of time.

 

[J-Dogg]

HBK/RKO, it's bound to happen but I'm cool with that at this point.

 

[Slash-LN]

Also it helps keep Triple H out of matches. He can be more of a mentor so to speak and we can see tag matches and combination of singles matches with Rollins and Orton vs The Shield.

There's no point in adding a new member of the Shield.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

The moment would have been topped off even better with Seth removing his vest and all that while mimicking his Shield symbol.

 

[rbv13]

Multi swerves on the way. Rollins tonight, Ambrose in the next few weeks and at Slam when it seems H has the advantage over Reigns the Shield unites and stands tall. Maybe put together by the master mind of the dirtiest player in the game.

 

[MizisAwesome]

Yeah, no point in Seth keeping the vest on. He could have just had the Evolution shirt under it as well.

 

[HBK/RKO]

I agree, I think they could have done a few more things with Rollins turn. He should have taken the Shield attire off and maybe show more emotion screaming "it's my time" or something along those lines

 

[J-Dogg]

Minus boring moments on raw this week, it was good and the ending, didn't see it coming, I'm in shock still.

 

[Harthan]

WOW. I like that a lot. I was just thinking last night - of all three of these guys, Rollins I think needed to do the most to stand out. And boy oh boy, does being the shocking wild card to turn on the Shield when everyone expected it would be Ambrose sure do that. This is gonna be so good.

I don't know if the Shield will find a third. The Shield is about being brothers after all, and you don't just find a brother out of nowhere. I'm wondering if maybe, just maybe, Cody Rhodes could be headed to the Shield. They could also maybe follow tradition of bringing people from NXT and I think maybe Sami Zayn could be that guy.

Absolutely no idea where this goes from here, which is just perfect. I love this.

 

[Skairipa Matrix]

I was thinking Zayn myself. He'd match up well with Rollins.

 

[J-Dogg]

So many things going on, I'm re watching it again

 

[Harthan]

I also think it's very likely that this leads to Ambrose and Reigns just not being able to keep it together. How many times has Rollins been called the Architect, and we've been reminded that he keeps the Shield together? Reigns and Ambrose even showed tension during last night's post show conference. Maybe we see something like Orton & Rollins vs. Reigns/Ambrose but Ambrose and Reigns just can no longer function as a team.

 

[L@RISANO]

I expect the odds to be stackef against Roman Reigns come SummerSlam.

So expect an Ambrose turn some time in the near future as well.

Will be interesting to find out why Seth Sold Out nevertheless, I just hope that isn't done on SmackDown so as to devalue it.

All in all, I didn't see the Seth Rollins swerve coming at all but it puts focus on him, albeit as a Heel, whilst keeping the crowd behind the other 2 also.

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end, and the Shield was no exception

 

[L@RISANO]

Tbh, from Ambrose's reaction initially, for a second, I thought he was in cahoots with Rollins and Evolution...

 

[L@RISANO]

One things for sure...these announcers suck balls. Cant even sell moments like tonight properly

 

[L@RISANO]

I was thinking Zayn myself. He'd match up well with Rollins.

I dont really see a new member being added tbh. Doesnt seem too likely

 

[J-Dogg]

If like to see ambrose as a face still but an anti hero but still on reigns side if they do split.

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

I also think it's very likely that this leads to Ambrose and Reigns just not being able to keep it together. How many times has Rollins been called the Architect, and we've been reminded that he keeps the Shield together? Reigns and Ambrose even showed tension during last night's post show conference. Maybe we see something like Orton & Rollins vs. Reigns/Ambrose but Ambrose and Reigns just can no longer function as a team.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. No need to turn either of them or replace Rollins, this is the thing that makes the most sense and would validate that turn ("I'm sick of being the glue that holds this team together" - Seth Rollins, February).

 

[Shocky]

If JR were still here this would probably be the greatest moment of television in 10 years. For shame Cole and JBL.

That about sums it up. The announcing team is atrocious with big moments.

 

[The_Reptile_]

Legit didn't see that ending coming, so kudos WWE.
