Are The Shield Heels Now?
A question that fans have been asking since RAW on Monday is if the Shield has turned heel based on their actions. WWE is advertising The Shield vs. Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre and Baron Corbin for the October 15th edition of Monday Night RAW in Philadelphia.
This seems to be a big hint that they are not going to be booked as heels and will be pushed as a babyface group moving forward.
