I hope it won't be the case, but I honestly would prefer it over another romance angle.
I dunno. I'm an AJ fan, but they are having her do too much too soon. She's went from face, to somewhat of a tweener, to heel in a span of a single year. Once she wins the Divas title, there will be not much else for her to do or directions her character could go.

Do you think the shield would look as badass without thier vests?
Honestly, can you imagine 3 guys in trunks making that much impact in that TLC match instead, i cant.
They resemble a cooler younger version of the bossman to me.
The whole military style vests with all black getup just makes them look all that more badass.
I'm dreading seeing them split down the line and wearing regular ring gear.
The shield is the best thing going in wwe right now, reminiscent of the attitude era, and if they ruin it by associating them to aj in anyway then honestly, wwe might as well make the next storyline about aj being vinces illegitimate daughter, since its all aj this aj that.
Shes has no freaking talent and having a petite ass does not count as talent.
She's always doing something slutty, pushing someone off something or switching her love interest which keeps her relevant.
What if... the beatdown of Tommy Dreamer leads up to different ECW originals/legends like Sandman, Dreamer and Foley against The Shield? :O (just hoping...:mark: :mark: :mark
Re: Do you think the shield would look as badass without thier vests?
I like there look, I like their theme, I LOVE there entrance the way they came into the ring at TLC was awesome. This coming from a guy who didn't care about ambrose and the rest of them. I've now become a fan.
I'm a little dissapointed that The Shield didn't cut a live promo in the ring last night. At the moment they seem to follow a pattern where they carry out an attack on RAW and then explain their actions in a found-footage style promo on Smackdown. At least this means we're probably going to get another GREAT promo from the guys tonight! Also, might I add that I LOVED their match at TLC. ***** 10/10 A+ MOTY!!!
What the fuck is up with the barrage of morons in this thread all of a sudden? The Shield doesn't have a leader, and never will. So stop with the stupid bullshit about AJ.
Moving on, it seems like The Shield will be feuding with Del Rio and The Miz.
I'm really getting tired of the lack of promos being produced by The Shield, especially on Raw, because guess what? There hasn't been any promos on Raw to date. They've all been in pre taped video format on Smackdown of all shows! I really don't know where they're going with this anymore.

There was an "AJ Leader of Shield" thread that the mods merged into this thread; a questionable decision as this thread is now tainted with that fuckery. :StephenA

Don't forget Orton when he comes back. What I'm waiting to see is how long it takes the "Universe" to stop associating The Shield with Ryback. I don't want to be hearing that stupid chant months from now when The Shield are beating down on guys not named Ryback.
As for the promos, have patience. The way the video promos are done require a lot of editing and don't work the same if done live. I think they're doing this at the right pace. Giving us just enough Shield without overexposing them. They're still new and fresh. Let the slow build continue.
the fuck has happened to the thread? how did AJ get into this? the fuck?
ok, first things first, AJ has nothing to do with The Sheild, secondly...Damn she plays a better heel. Her mannerisms are perfect for a heel, the sort of plotting, ima get you when you're asleep sort. Unfortunatly this forum won't apprieciate her because she is a woman, no other reason behind it, i've seen enough posts about the women to deduce that a large portion of this forum are sexist assholes who view women as inferior (this obviously doesn't apply to everyone). I'm glad, as a woman, that a woman is getting airtime and shes the best one to do so when it comes to being able to speak. unfortunately they haven't allowed her to show off her ring skills which is a shame because her NXT work was a joy to watch.
now thats out of the way, can we all just get back to talking about The Shield without being morons?
What a goof. Playing the sexist card that the lowest common denominator and thinking THAT's the reason people find her grating and annoying. Hardly surprising coming from the type of person who defended the GM AJ pus and the babyface AJ/Cena/Vickie/Dolph angle to death as being compelling television simply because you were an AJ fan who would literally jump in front of any criticism of your precious woman. People hate this crap, because it's first of all terrible television, not just because it's a woman. This is proven because there are tons of female posters who also loathe AJ and her ridiculous push. And 2nd, it does literally nothing for anybody other than a girl that doesn't even wrestle, nevermind wrestle at the quality level that her push would dictate as a main event level and actively hurts every other character that's involved in angles with her. If there was no AJ push, the incredibly stale Vickie wouldn't even be given this amount of television time since her only purpose is to put over this girl.
Fuck, I thought this was the safest thread on the forum, away from all the other psychotic shit that happened on the show, The Shield give me hope, but a nonsensical AJ thread has been merged with it? :jones
I'm with you guys, theres no leader, the commentators(JBL) are really pushing that they believe in what they are doing, it won't make sense for them to push that angle and then have them be the bitches of a 90 pound crazy chick.
The only concievable way they could tie her in with them is she encouraged them via nxt while she was Raw GM to put the rights wrong, hoping they'd take out the ones that had wronged her, but they took it too far, could even seal more heat on the Shield with her doing the promo where she fesses up, and then we get the "Sierra.." and then some white knight saves her.
Hell knowing WWE they'll probably dream up some convoluted thing where by CM punk and AJ where behind it all along and then we get some super Mcmhaon-Helmsley era faction, with the shield as Punks/AJ's flunkies...god no..
It was my first thought when i saw Raw last night and she brought an NXT guy out, it was ..please ..please dont tie her into the shield, keep her away from the most promising thing in the WWE right now.
any ideas on why they attacked Dreamer what "injustice" will they try to use to justify that, i really dont want them turning into some random thugs, i really liked them playing up the "they have their own beliefs/code/ethics and they stick to that" angle.
Hi all by the way the goodness of the shield made me sign up for some discussion!
And add me to the list of those that are just wondering why they wont take the shackles off the shield and let them cut a live promo.

I think the Dreamer attack was an easter egg for all the Ambrose/Moxley fangirls and fanboys at home. And maybe for him, too. On multiple occasions in interviews, he asserted his own fanboy tendencies for the classic ECW and one of the matches he mentioned frequently was getting to work with Dreamer in the indies.
I don't think it will have long-reaching plotline significance. It's just something for those of us obsessive nuts watching at home.
Edited to Add: Eddie Ray, don't let VanWhatsisface rustle your jimmies. He does this in any thread where women's wrestling is touched on in the slightest. Bless his heart.
I think they'll say that the reason why they targeted Ric Flair and Tommy Dreamer is because they are the past and The Shield is the future and that wrestlers from the past have no place on THEIR show. Also, the reason why they attacked Ricardo is because he protested against their attack on Dreamer, and as Roman Reigns has said himself; "Nobody says no to The Shield". At least...that's what I think they'll say.
Yeah i got the Ricardo beatdown, was wondering about the Flair/Dreamer, but as you "its a injustice that these old guys on the show instead of us,since the shield weren't "officially2 booked on the show and in flairs case disrespecting the WWE champ" that makes sense i can get the logic behind that.
I think last night put to rest the rumors about the shield working paul heyman when they jumped tommy dreamer.dont think paul e would sick the shield on his good friend.
In storyline, Paul Heyman would sic the Shield on his poor, departed mother, best friend, or some dude he never met if he thought it might profit him. He's that dude.
(I still hope the Shield don't have a master or overlord, but Paul E. is one of the Usual Suspects for this kind of thing.)
Okay guys. Just watched raw... Wow The shield coming down to the ring with that music to kick the 2 time hall of famer's ass was the highlight of the show. The little brawl was good.
Amazing intensity when they beat the crap out of Dreamer. That last Ambrose kick was priceless.
I really really love these guys. It's really hard for me to consider them as heels. They're just some awesome reckless mercenaries!

Until the ad break of course i was really pissed at that
I dont really dig their theme music that much, i do love the "Sierra.." bit really announces theyre here and has everyone looking around. Really hope they get to talk on Smackdown....but we've been waiting for Ambrose with a live mike for weeks now....
Morons that don't understand AJ has nothing to do with the shield fpalm.
The beatdown on Dreamer and Ricardo was sick. The Shield once again were one of the few things I enjoyed about the show. Ambrose's last vicious kick to Dreamer was priceless.
I dont think anyone in their right mind would seriously think that, i think people are just wary about the booking that they're finding some way to think up of how vince could latch AJ onto the hottest thing they have going in the shield. and seeing the NXT connection last night is an obvious way that vince could try to pull it off.
When I look at Ambrose he just comes off as a badass villain from a movie. His facial expressions and his movements are top notch. He is a future star no doubt about it. That last kick to Dreamer was just so villain like. The guy is awesome.

Is there a clear version of their entrance music out. The last half hour I've been listening to some decent versions but nothing clear. I'm in love with their theme atm, the start of it is very unique and just makes their entrance that much awesome
LOL! :lol
Some people just need to calm down!
WTF! :lmao
I LOVE their theme.
It's something you recognize immediately and make you fuckin' mark.
Ambrose + Flair in the ring was one of the best moments on (Slammy)-RAW yesterday.
Ambrose is the fucking man.
Trust me. They will NEVER fuck this up, no matter what.
These moments when The Shield comes down through the audience and fills your body with excitement and respect are too intense to just let them slide into obscurity.
Their theme is Ok, what makes their entrance great though is the fact they come through the crowd. You get a real old school vibe from it and it's unique from anyone else on the roster. Current watching the repeat of their match at TLC. (Y)
Weird, a few days ago I thought they would lose on Sunday to help Ryback's success, a few days on and they're doing better then ever, they really do come across as vicious and organised, the way they kept working as a team on TLC to prevent any guy getting on a roll. It was awesome to behold.
Shield's theme is ok. I like the intro with the sayings in NATO alphabet, it matches with the gimmick. I'm Telling You (the one that many thought to be their theme) is a good song, but doesn't match with The Shield in my opinion.
I hope this is a success. Only time will tell. However, I liked Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins before wwe so its cool to see them finally in wwe.
