Is there anyone mourning the loss of the League Of Nations? When 'King' Barrett was booted from the faction, the writing was on the wall. Truthfully, it has been for quite some time, the League haven't been too relevant for months now. Without titles, they became just another group of guys without a real spot.

Hopefully, breaking them up will change that. Individually, Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio and Rusev are good performers. It makes sense to imagine that one of them will turn babyface at some point, otherwise the roster is about to get a glut of singles mid card heels with no clear purpose.

Engaging in a shoving match during their 6-man tag bout against Kalisto, Sami Zayn and Cesaro, 'The Lads' pretty much walked out one-by-one on the match. Backstage, they had a brawl after arguing, bringing the curtain down on their time as a stable. It's onto the next for these guys.
