25 Most Important WWE Stars Of The 21st Century So Far

14. The Shield

Even thought they have only been in the WWE for just over a year, The Shield as a collective cannot be ignored from a list of this type. They tick all the boxes - the fans absolutely love them, even more so now that they are a face group, and are targeting the much-hated Triple H and Evolution. The trio make plenty of dollars for the WWE with merchandise sales, and are becoming some of the most important stars the company has on its roster. And they have had a huge impact in the upturn the WWE has experienced over the last year or so, with their quest for justice seeing nobody getting in their way. Still in their infancy as WWE stars, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose will become certified stars in the coming months and years. For now though, they still do more than enough to rank nicely on our list of important WWE stars.
