“For me, my favorite Survivor Series moment was 2012, and that was the night that Ambrose and Rollins and Reigns appeared as The Shield coming in as mercenaries for CM Punk. And that was a night that really changed the landscape of all of WWE, and you see where they are in their careers now,” said Michael Cole. [H/T: WrestleTalk]
