From The WWE Rumor Mill: Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose not facing the Miztourage?
What's the story?
When Miztourage leveled Roman Reigns and left him laying on the mat while they performed The Shield's fist bump over his broken body a lot of people assumed The Shield would be taking on The Miz, Dallas, and Axel.
But a report from Pro Wrestling Sheet's Ryan Satin might tell a different story.
In case you didn't know....
Ever since Seth Rollins took out his Shield brothers with a steel chair fans have been waiting for The Hounds Of Justice to reform.
After Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose reunited to capture the Raw Tag Team Titles at SummerSlam it seems logical a full Shield reunion is around the corner.
Roman Reigns was busy at the time dealing with John Cena. But since his victory over Super Cena, Reigns seems more likely than ever to join back up with his brothers.
The heart of the matter
The Miz might have lost the battle to Roman Reigns but it looks like Miztourage won the war on that episode of Raw. However, the battle is far from over and that confrontation could have just meant a warning shot had been fired.
As The Miz, Bo Dallas, and Curtis Axel stood over Roman Reigns after a vicious beatdown and did The Shield's fistbump over a wrecked Big Dog it only made sense The Shield would be reuniting very soon.
Most people assumed The Shield would be taking on The Miztourage at TLC following their full reunion. But Pro Wrestling Sheet's Ryan Satin recently reported their sources are telling them something different could be in store for the WWE Universe.
He said The Miztourage vs The Shield is not set in stone for TLC just yet and the A-Lister's stable might only serve as a means to bring Rollins, Ambrose, and Reigns back together.
What's next?
It certainly appears as though a Shield reunion is coming down the line. It might not take much time but WWE could always stretch this out to build anticipation.
A reunion of The Shield might also be the best thing for Roman Reigns because of how over Ambrose and Rollins are as babyfaces.
If WWE wants to make sure people cheer for Roman Reigns, there might not be a better way to make that happen than to pair him back up with his Shield brethren.
Author's take
Whether The Shield takes on The Miztourage or any other combination of Superstars is beside the point. The fact is a Shield reunion could be a very big deal. It could also bring huge money.
So if you missed out on buying one of The Shield's t-shirts the first time around it looks like WWE could very well be printing up an updated design very soon.
