All 4 guys got jobbed out. What did they do to piss Vince off?. Last nights Raw has to be the end of the group
Poor Wade got the worst of it all being beaten by 3 legends at WM32 then beaing beaten by his own team on the Raw after WM32 and I can imagine thats the last we have seen of Wade. Hes probably waiting out his contract now. I really hope he does a shoot interview on whats going on in WWE as really Wade isnt ever going back to WWE so hes got nothing to lose
Where the fuck do the three guys go now from this?
Sheamus got screwed over from that title win from Roman
Rusev has been buried cos of the whole Lana heat
Alberto left WWE due to a race issue then came back but hasn't been pushed
No, seriously. They were there to be Roman's punching bags on his road to Mania. That's all it was. Now that Mania is over, LON serve no purpose anymore.

WWE wanted a heel faction that could provide Roman with "name" heels to serve as cannon fodder. Unfortunately for them,they lacked chemistry and were instantly labeled as jobbers in the fans' eyes.
The LON was a thrown together idea to give Sheamus a big main event stable that would would help establish his Title run, and give Reigns a major obstacle to face. Thing is most of them were semi-jobbers, including Sheamus, and about 4 weeks after the LON it was quickly learned that the Sheamus wasn't working, so they killed the plan and made Reigns champion.
After that there was no real point for the LON, and it has been coasting along with no purpose every since.
League of Nations was meant to promote Kevin Owens as he was supposed to join and then lead the stable, but he got the flu for a few weeks and the stable went on without him. Someone assumed Wade was going to re-sign. There was no way Del Rio was ever going to be back in the main event scene. Sheamus, maybe, Rusev should have been the co-leader of the League of Nations. This stable would have had potential with Kevin Owens in it. Rusev and Sheamus as tag-team champions was the plan since Sheamus kept referring to Rusev as his right hand man. Then Wade dropped a bombshell that he won't re-sign with the company and that derailed even more plans for them. So, you had Plan A backfire when Kevin Owens got sick, and then you had Wade announce he is leaving. Plans have derailed and they are now trying to come up with a new plan. Rusev and Sheamus will be in upper-mid-card mode for a while, but Del Rio gets screwed over in the long run.
other than the very top few wrestlers, there is no point long term for the rest of the entire roster. you could even say that's a stretch and reigns is the only one they plan long term for.
The point, was for them to be fed to Roman. Thats it. WWE took 4 great talents put together under the guise that it makes Reigns road to Mania tougher and we should be sympathetic. But they had Roman single handidly destroy them all every week. It was pathetic.
When they first debuted I thought it was an interesting idea because they were something NEW. But as the weeks went on and they were feuding with Reigns I gave up on them. They just disbanded at the Smackdown tapings thank God. Rusev and Barrett deserved way better than how they were in that group.
A desperate attempt to get their Samoan playboy over. He buried these guys and made them less relevant and less over. They looked like complete fucking idiots at the Rumble pulling Reigns under the bottom ropes instead of climbing in and throwing him over the top rope. It was so obvious that Roman was taking a backstage nap and the crowd wasnt falling for it.
If that story about Owens is true then thank goodness he got sick and wasn't subjected to this bullshit.
To put over Roman. That is the one purpose that they served. They were GOING to also put over the Wyatts, but Bray getting hurt put an end to that. They didnt even have any plans for them outside of that so they just ended them...
