The band is back together for one more show. Following the events of tonight’s episode of Raw, WWE has announced that Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose will reunite The Shield for “one final match.”
They will be taking on the team of Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre at the 2019 Fastlane pay-per-view.
You can see a clip of Reigns asking for a reunion below:
From WWE.com:
The Shield will once again unite when they go to war against Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre & Bobby Lashley at WWE Fastlane this Sunday.
It seemed as if the WWE Universe had seen the last of The Shield last October. On the very same night that Roman Reigns announced that he had to step way from the squared circle in order to fight his returning leukemia, Dean Ambrose attacked Seth Rollins moments after they had won the Raw Tag Team Championships. A subsequent rivalry between them ensued, with The Lunatic Fringe going so far as to burn his Shield gear to signal the de facto end of the faction once and for all.
All of that changed on the Feb. 25 Raw, however. In an emotional moment that brought the WWE Universe to its collective feet, The Big Dog returned to his yard. Later that night, Reigns joined Rollins in saving Ambrose from a 4-on-1 Superstar attack by McIntyre, Lashley, Corbin and Elias.
The following week, Reigns again came to the ring in an attempt to reunite The Shield for one final run. Although Rollins was willing, Ambrose, initially refused, explaining that he had his own stuff to handle. But when Corbin, McIntyre & Lashley swarmed on his brothers, The Lunatic Fringe pounced to join by their side.
Editor’s Opinion:
While this will be awesome, I have a feeling that this storyline will not end after this coming Sunday. Believe that.
