WWE witnessed the advent of The Shield, a powerful faction formed by Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and Jon Moxley, in 2012. The unit has since earned its place as one of the most influential groups in WWE history.
The Shield disbanded officially in 2019, with Moxley’s exit to AEW. However, with WrestleMania 41 on the horizon, speculation of a possible reformation has ignited among fans.
During a recent exchange with WFAN, a question about the likelihood of The Shield’s comeback at WrestleMania 41 was posed to Rollins. But, considering Moxley’s ongoing contract with AEW, Rollins dispelled the reunion rumors. His statement was as follows:
“Look, one of our guys is over in the other company. So he ain’t coming. And Roman Reigns and I are here for life. Look, our paths are gonna be intertwined. We’re gonna crisscross here and there until both of us are done and retired. So you never know. You never know what WrestleMania is going to look like. You never know what next month is going to look like. Could be anytime.”
In a separate interview with Metro UK’s Alistair McGeorge, WWE Women’s United States Champion Chelsea Green shared her thoughts on the prospect of a wrestling face-off with Nikki Bella, WWE Hall of Famer. Her comments included:
“I’ve shared some words with Nikki Bella. I feel like… look. We’ve had a friendship for years, now maybe it is time to step in the ring and square off, face off. I don’t know! Vegas and WrestleMania in Las Vegas is just so special because I think anything could happen. We really don’t know right now, we’re on the Road to WrestleMania. We don’t know where this is going to go, what storylines are going to be put into place. I feel like the people want it. So, should we give them what they want?”
Green went on to say, “She looks amazing. She’s been such a pivotal woman in this women’s evolution, and the Give Divas a Chance movement. She was kind of a trailblazer! So I just think having her back is, really, a gain all around for the women’s division. I mean, can you imagine if on April 19 or 20th, we saw Nikki Bella in Las Vegas, on the grandest stage of them all? I would be watching as a fan, whether I was in the ring with her or not.”
