Since splitting the group in June, 2014, WWE have teased that The Shield are getting back together several times. The latest of those mini-reunions took place at Survivor Series, ironically the event at which Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose made their debut in 2012 as a collective unit.

Smack bang in the middle of the Team Raw vs. Team SmackDown match they were all involved in, Reigns, Rollins and Ambrose were able to get on the same page for just a few moments. Thumping AJ Styles through the announce table with a Triple Powerbomb, the trio sent Toronto, Canada crazy.

Yet again, it became clear that there are some fans desperately seeking a full on Shield reprise. The pop was epic following that Powerbomb. In fact, people were even on edge and excited when Rollins and Reigns prevented Ambrose from being ejected by security beforehand.

WWE management are surely listening, it's only a matter of time before The Shield get back together on television for good. For now, teasing it is fine, but that reunion has to happen in the future.
