The Shield is back, b*tch!

Luckily, Roman Reigns isn't still trapped in his short-fused verbal war with John Cena, otherwise that's perhaps exactly how the formal announcement would have been made. As it was, 'The Big Dog', Roman Reigns, and Dean Ambrose mostly let their actions do the talking as they reunited to cap off an electric opening segment on this week's edition of the show.

Either by careful consideration or the happiest of accidents, their 2017 coming together took place in exactly the same building as their turtle-necked arrival and heartbreaking collapse.

Wreaking havoc during the main event of the 2012 Survivor Series in order to ensure CM Punk's lengthy reign with the WWE Title continued, The Shield hopped the rail of the Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana to a mix of shock and awe from the capacity crowd. Less than two years later, tears would be shed as Triple H unveiled Seth Rollins as his 'Plan B' to shockingly dismantle the unit whilst still in their prime.

The Miz and The Bar clearly should have checked their travel itinerary ahead of decking Reigns, Ambrose, and Rollins last week. This wasn't just a crowd pleased to see a heroic reunification - this was Shield home turf.
