I think after WM we are going to see them do a lot more singles matches which will allow them to showcase their personalities a little better. For now I'd like them to have each others backs even if not teamed up but would love the Rollins/ Ambrose feud to be done at a big stage.

They have a whole year before WM 30, when maybe Rollins & Ambrose can feud over principles and honor and IC belt or something. Poor Reigns. What's he going to do without his buddies? Sadface.

Um, I have no idea, maybe get pushed higher and become the main event main stay he was destined to be. Just throwing it out there.

I'm not saying that Reigns won't, eventually, hit the higher ranks. He's got upside for days. But he's only been wrestling two years in total. He hasn't developed the skillset for it, the way the other two have over the past 10 years of wrestling.
He's good. He's better than most of the odious big men the WWE tries to inflict on us. But he's got growing up to do yet.

Could always be Rollins turning face after the sudden realization that they weren't after justice at all it was just beating people up. Then Ambrose and Reigns could stick together until Reigns is more established.
I'm torn between wanting to re-visit the Ambrose/ Rollins feud but on a much bigger stage like at WM30 as you said for a mid card title or having them doing singles matches but still fighting occasionally as a team.

I don't see why they can't have singles matches? Just have the other two at ringside constantly. Put the tag titles on a pair and the IC on the other. Helps them get into their own programs while still being relevant as a group.

I don't know why either and it certainly would be better than what we're getting at Mania.
After Mania, their intentions, characters, roles, quirks, etc have to be fleshed out. While they're all being viewed as equal to the other, I can't get into another six man match with the same damn opponents.

Raw needs Ambrose
I realize the state of the WWE being in this PG era, but I truly feel a guy like Dean could work the crowd in this PG with no little to no problem at all. This isn't a Shield thread, and it's more of a Raw needs Ambrose thread. I feel as though the WWE have put themselves in an awkward position because it's going to be somewhat difficult finding a reason to split them up. That's the only real positive thing I can say about them, they are cohesive. Other than that I really feel like Ambrose on his own could really spark more interest than The Shield currently have drawn from many marks. Dean has talent, and boy would I love for him to just show up on Raw in street clothes, and address his position with the company. Basically leave The Shield, and then beat the shit out of both men without any mercy. Truly make his mark as a lone wolf, and the next big thing in the WWE.
Right now in The Shield he is getting tv exposure, but his character is hardly being represented. We get very little of this guy in general, and in fact all three. His over all talents are gross being wasted every week right now, and I don't care how popular you all think The Shield actually is. Raw's ratings have been shit. You don't have to be a fan of this guy to realize that his upside is through the roof. He has it. Creatively it was a good move in the WWE's eyes to debut him with The Shield. I may not like The Shield, but even I will admit that the exposure has only helped him gain ground in the WWE. At this point I truly feel like he can break from this angle, and become his own thing. He is a star folks.
