Seth Rollins Predicts Slim Chances for WWE’s The Shield Reunion
Seth Rollins recently expressed his skepticism about the possibility of a WWE reunion with his former Shield teammates, Roman Reigns and Jon Moxley. During an interview with GQ to promote the new season of “WWE: Unreal,” Rollins addressed a fan question regarding the chances of The Shield reuniting.
Slim Chances for The Shield Reunion
Rollins believes that a reunion is unlikely. The current tensions due to his ongoing rivalry with Reigns and Moxley’s move to AEW contribute to his pessimism. He stated that the situation results in “very slim” odds for the trio to come back together in the ring.
Factors Influencing The Reunion
- Current Rivalry: Rollins and Reigns are currently engaged in a storyline feud.
- Jon Moxley’s Status: Moxley has been a prominent figure at AEW and is not affiliated with WWE at this time.
Rollins remarked, “Not a lot of love lost between myself and Roman Reigns. Dean Ambrose — Jon Moxley — not currently with the company. Don’t know if he’s ever coming back.” He added that the only scenario where they might reunite is during a WWE Hall of Fame induction, where all three could find themselves in the same place again.
The Shield’s Legacy
The Shield made their WWE debut in 2012 and last performed together in 2019 before Moxley’s departure to AEW. Since then, Moxley has become one of AEW’s most recognized stars, earning accolades from his peers and management.
In the same GQ interview, Rollins also discussed his recovery from a shoulder injury sustained in October. He mentioned that rehabilitation is progressing well, and he aims to return for WrestleMania 42, depending on WWE’s medical clearance.
Conclusion
As it stands, while the possibility of a Shield reunion appears dim, Rollins remains hopeful for the future. Fans of the wrestling world continue to cherish the legacy of The Shield and look forward to any potential appearances by the trio together once more.
