Speculation On The Plans For The Shield

This weeks episode of Monday Night RAW featured a match between Roman Reigns and The Miz. Reigns was able to win the match but was attacked by the Miz and the Miztourage afterwards. After the attack, the Miztourage mocked the Shield’s signature fist bump over Reigns’ body.

Lets take a look at the latest rumors and speculation on the Shield returning.

The initial report came from James Mckenna of Pro Wrestling Sheet who says the Shield will be returning to help boost ticket sales for TLC. After RAW this week, this looks like where they are heading.

So are we building towards the Shield vs the Miztourage? It certainly seems like that based on RAW this week. Here is another possibility.

Dave Meltzer and his co-host Bryan Alvarez on Wrestling Observer Radio (subscribe here), had an interesting thought on where WWE could go with this. Since Braun Strowman is currently involved in a storyline with Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins, what if it led to Strowman being involved?

Strowman and another heel (to be named later) would replace Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel. This would mean the Miz, Braun Strowman and another heel vs the reunited Shield at TLC.

This is only an idea but seems like it could happen based on Strowman being involved with Ambrose and Rollins. It also seems underwhelming for WWE to use the Shield’s return for the Miztourage and not something bigger.
