gonna have to get them seconds fam. I hope you understand lol

.

You betta respek your elder and fall back youngin'..I claimed Asuka before you even knew what NTWT was..

 

[Peep Game]

All the factions I put above or equal footing to the Shield
DX
4 Horsemen
NWO
Dangerous Alliance
NOD
Corporate Ministry
Mcmahon Hemsley faction
Freebirds
Evolution(pukes a little)
The Hart Foundation
Chaos
Triple Threat
Straight Edge Society
Right to Censor(look at how over and effective they were)
Ravens FLock(ECW)
Team ECK
Bullet Club
Chaos

Minus Team ECK and Straight Edge Society, I fully agree with this. Team ECK was just a hilarious group, and SES was a great concept that turned into totally wasted potential. Big Show ended them. That could have grown to be a Flock type group, but they made them jobbers. A lot of those stables listed were very good in a sea of other very good stables. Shield came along when we were begging for the WWE to start using stables again, when the only groups recently before them were Nexus, the Corre, and....well, I guess just them lol

 

[Bend_The_Knee]

Y'all killing me with This Shield slander.

Of course WWE is gonna WWE and OD on their accomplishments and what they did for the business, but there's no denying they were the focal point of WWE for about 3 years.

This.


They were great.

 

[JCMojica24]

Shield was barely around for 2 years BUT they were great for that time they were together. I could care less ab them now it won't be the same that is for sure

 

[ihust1e]

You are silly

And you try too hard to give those cornball grabblers credit

But, and let's be honest, by wrestling standards they weren't very successful..Ever since there's been stables/factions the purpose of those groups has been to be in the main event, win titles, and be a force for a considerable amount of time..SHIELD was together for less than 2 yrs, won a combined 2 titles during their run, and (admittedly) main event a lot..And since they split all of them have had pretty much sub par title runs and have been a little directionless..

Horsemen, Dangerous Alliance, Heenan Family, Triple Threat, Evolution, NWO, DX, Freebirds, and Nation of Domination were all far and away better factions than SHIELD..

 

[Case]

Of course folks are going to hate the shield now

Y'all hate everything

I wasn't hyped on the SHIELD when they debuted..Not to say I didn't enjoy their work, but always thought they weren't anything special..

 

[JCMojica24]

And you try too hard to give those cornball grabblers credit

Nah not trying hard at all. They deserve a lot of credit and that is coming from someone who couldn't stand them before.

Rick O'Shea is WWE bound :

Used to get excited ab these moves but knowing them he will be on 205 live jobbing to Enzo.

205 shouldn't be a show..The cruiserweights should be treated like everyone else and have their matches/segments blended into the show they're on at the time..

 

[Fozz]

I only got hyped for Shield when I went to Raw in Sacramento and Dean Ambrose walked down my aisle during their entrance lol.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Kaientai and Triple Tails were better than the Shield.

The Shield stole their Triple Powerbomb spot FROM Kai En Tai

 

[DCAllAfrican]

was on a wrassling hiatus during that time. what about big dicc batista? was he a full time member as well?

Reported. Seriously.

@brendasdeadbaby See how OP influences the thread?

SES Punk got so much heat. In his DVD, he said how much he loved SES and there was an old lady that called him the devil. I believe Serena got caught drinking so she was fired.

woag forgot about the dangerous alliance. add another one

DA is in my top 5 all time..

 

[JCMojica24]

They are absolutely destroying this episode of RAW on Review-A-RAW

 

[the 718 truth]

Wait so now the shield and evolution were trash?

 

[bigego24]

Great designer.

These dudes are sleeping. It’s pricey but high quality garments>>>

bigego24 doing good bro, how about you? I would post more, but WWE has been

Kinda in the same boat. Been working a lot. Didn’t even care to try and catch up on HIAC. Thread did the job.

Reigns Shield promos>>>>>>>>>Him doing a segment

Reigns sounds so good when it's straight to the point.

That was the magic formula for him getting over and the more they got away from that the more the fans began to resist the push...

The Shield is about on par with The Brood. Cool dudes that put on good matches, but def not on any GOAT list.

Brood may have a GOAT entrance though...

Really, The Brood Peep...

On par with the Brood :. Yeah I need to see some list.

People are going a bit overboard with the hyperbole, that much is clear.

Y'all forgetting the Shield carried this company for a good two years. Outside of DBry the shield was at the top.

How quickly people forget...

Of course folks are going to hate the shield now

Y'all hate everything

It’s what NTWT does Best...

Wooooow I'd def put Shield above 9 of those 23 teams. So basically Shield is at 14-15 if you're including all of them

Any list that dude makes is gonna have some questionable selections, so I knew it could possibly contradict whatever point he was trying to prove

Y'all killing me with This Shield slander.

Of course WWE is gonna WWE and OD on their accomplishments and what they did for the business, but there's no denying they were the focal point of WWE for about 3 years.

Thanks for being logical and remembering @T0INE. The Shield washed damn near every major superstar in their ascent up the ladder of dominance. They way people are talking they were just three dudes in riot gear that came in through the crowd and haven’t been in damn near every main event between the three of them since splitting up as a group when healthy or passing piss tests...

 

[King of Trash Style]

was on a wrassling hiatus during that time. what about big dicc batista? was he a full time member as well?

Yea he was he was the strong silent enforcer until he broke off early 2005

 

[the 718 truth]

 

[cosmiccoffee9]

I like how The Shield has become X-Factor in the thread rankings. none can deny that the whole thing is beyond buttox now, still...y'all gotta stop.

they pretty much WERE the E for a while there.

I will say the presentation is abysmal tho..."see guys, The Shield! member them? they got back together now! look, it's like before! are we cool now? can we sit with you guys?"

 

[noblekane]

the shield is like when you run into that one night stand you had a few years back. you thought it was great back then but then you have it again and realize it was just that bad. terrible

 

[King of Trash Style]

205 shouldn't be a show..The cruiserweights should be treated like everyone else and have their matches/segments blended into the show they're on at the time..

No matter what they try cruiserweight will never work on WWE tv

Rick O'Shea is WWE bound :

they probably low-balled him given his contract situation and how eager he was to get signed to the E

 

[Blue Mamba]

The Shield is arguably the only well booked thing WWE did in the past 5 years or so. You're kidding yourself.
