Ambrose has the ability to make rest holds look exciting. I love the mind games he plays into the match including the breif mocking of Ryback's shoulder pump taunt. His DDT is exquisite.
I think I would've marked out if Rollins pulled that off
not even sure what the Skywalker is but that sounds like a markout move

Obviously Ambrose carried the match... And when he wasnt in the ring he was still great

434 days. The greatest reign in the history of professional wrestling. Nobody will forget it.

I don't watch the indies, and I'm usually not a huge fan of the super technicians or IWC favorites, but how can you not love all 3 of these guys? I really waffle on who I am more drawn to between Ambrose and Reigns, but even Rollins is ridiculously impressive to me as the number 3.

So, you really can't say "This guy is the best," because they're all excellent at one aspect of wrestling or another. They're like buttah together.
yea notice I didn't say who is the best but rather who impressed most from tonight's ppv?
you make excellent points that they truly do compliment each other (although I do not believe Rollins is #3) I definitely love the fact that The Shield is not too big a storyline/gimmick/angle and each person has retained their INDIVIDUALITY
that is key.. it speaks volumes to how they'll do once this storyline has run its course
but for now i am truly enjoying The Shield.. the question now is truly
WHO CAN STOP THE SHIELD?!
i can't wait to see how this story unfolds on the road to Wrestlemania and specifically.. what role will The Shield have in the grandest stage of them all

And really, the WWE has booked this where... they really can't be beaten by a 3 man team, they already took down the 3 most superhero-esque faces. The faces might have to use the fuckery to top them :O

But that's not the case, is it. Sure, the Shield took down the top three faces -- but the top three faces aren't a team by any stretch of the imagination. Well, not a team like the Shield is, with cohesion and strategy and their rad bromantic antics.
But a real team of three guys willing to put their heart and soul in the mission just might do it.
(See. Just right there, in two seconds, I made more plans for the midcard than anyone in Creative has all year.)
