There have been several factions or stables in WWE. While many of them are currently showcasing their dominance, many have ceased to exist with time. One such stable was ‘The Shield’. Though it ruled the Stamford-based promotion at one point in time, it’s now no longer in existence.
The once dominant stable mainly consisted of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose (Jon Moxley). All three Superstars rose to prominence as a part of the stable. However, after the stable disbanded, the three Superstars walked on their respective paths to success.
Meanwhile, it seems WWE Hall of Famer and honorary Shield member Kurt Angle is of the belief that the most successful stable member is Roman Reigns. Angle spoke on ‘The Player’s Experience’. During that, he talked about the members of The Shield. It is also to be noted that Angle was also a member of the stable for a brief period of time.
The wrestling legend stated that he believed all three members were top-notch performers. Angle then added, “I do think Roman Reigns just set apart a little bit more than the other guys and had a little more success.”
Roman Reigns is the top Superstar in WWE. With his exceptional in-ring skills he has achieved immense success in the Stamford-based promotion. Not to mention he is the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion of the promotion. His Tribal Chief persona is highly praised as well as feared by many. However, as of now he is currently absent from television but will return sooner than later.
Taking a look at the current status of the other members of ‘The Shield’
Apart from Roman Reigns, the other members of ‘The Shield’ were Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. While Reigns has achieved breakthrough success in his singles run, the other two members also have gained immense popularity and prosperity on their respective paths.
Seth Rollins is currently a part of the Triple H-led promotion and is among the top Superstars of the promotion. Not to mention he is the World Heavyweight Champion of the company. Upon his singles run, Rollins received worldwide acclaim for his athleticism and in-ring charisma. He has participated in several matches and has main-evented several pay-per-view events.

On the other hand, the other member of ‘The Shield’, Dean Ambrose is no longer a part of WWE. He is currently a part of AEW where his fans know him by the name of Jon Moxley.
He was formerly a member of the stable ‘The Shield’, but is now a member of the stable ‘Blackpool Combat Club’. With his outstanding talent, he has successfully developed a huge fanbase for himself.

Thus, it can be understood that all three members of The Shield are currently top-notch Superstars. While two of them are currently a part of WWE, another has been making his name in the Tony Khan-led promotion. However, it is certain that they have successfully gathered a lot of fame and love from their fans after they embarked on their singles journey.
Meanwhile, their stories as a member of ‘The Shield’ in WWE is still a topic of discussion within the WWE Universe. Also, their fans would wait with high anticipation to see if the three top-level Superstars will once again be reunited in the distant future.
