5 superstars who could become The Shield's 4th member

The Shield are set to be reformed soon by WWE and hints of the same have already been dropped. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins came to save Dean Ambrose from the hands of Bobby Lashley, Baron Corbin, Elias and Drew McIntyre on RAW and that was enough for the WWE Universe to go wild.

However, reports now suggest that WWE Creative are planning to add a 4th member to the team and it is set to happen very soon. The Shield has already named Joey Mercury as their 4th brother behind the scenes but now, it looks like they will actually be having a 4th brother on TV.

While Mercury is certainly not an option for the creative team to use, we take a look at 4 current superstars who could join forces with The Shield:

#5 – Finn Balor

There were way too many reasons why Balor might be the ideal candidate to be the 4th member of The Shield. The leader of the Balor Club has had an issue with every single one of the potential opponents for The Shield at Fastlane – Lashley, Corbin, Mcintyre, and Elias.

That should be more than enough to get the WWE Creative thinking as it would be very easy for them to get the storyline going. Moreover, Balor can pull the crowd just like The Shield and it would only make the fans even more interested to see how things go.

Another reason can be the possible departure of Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows. The duo's contracts are up soon and rumours suggest that WWE have no plans to keep them. If that is the case, Balor might as well team up with The Shield and have someone to watch his back all the time.

With the crowd behind them and the right storyline, Balor and The Shield can take WWE to greater heights.
