The Shield's 10 Best WWE Moments
1. The Shield Debuts In WWE - Survivor Series 2012
While Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns all made names for themselves on NXT, their sudden debut on the main WWE roster, as The Shield, saw them reach a whole new level of stardom overnight.
Starting at the top, they made their presence felt when they assaulted Ryback during a Triple Threat match for the WWE Championship — hurling themselves onto him from out of nowhere.
Mauling him like a pack of hyenas, the trio would then Powerbomb him through the announce table, setting the tone for their future dominance.
To use a 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin mantra, The Shield arrived, raised hell and left — but in that short space of time, they made an unforgettable impression on the WWE Universe, and in the days that followed all anyone could talk about was Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose.
WWE has used Survivor Series as a launching pad for some of its biggest names, and The Shield was no exception. In a matter of minutes, the trio changed the landscape of the company as they left complete destruction in their wake.
Without a doubt, this was one of the greatest debuts in wrestling history, and it was only a sign of things to come as the three men embarked on their impressive year-long reign of terror.
