Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, and Seth Rollins made up The Shield, one of the most popular and powerful groups in WWE history. They ushered in a new era in professional wrestling with their dramatic debut in 2012, and their influence is still felt today. Given how well the women’s division is doing, it begs the question: Could WWE RAW bring in a female The Shield?
The idea that The Shield would feature an all-female cast is intriguing. With groups like The Four Horsewomen (Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Bayley, and Becky Lynch) and the current alliance with Bayley, Dakota Kai, and IYO SKY, WWE has already demonstrated the might of their female Superstars. The development and potential of the women’s division would be further cemented by a faction akin to Shield.
Imagine a group made up of gifted female Superstars with distinct personas and skill sets, akin to The Shield’s dynamic, such as Ronda Rousey, Shayna Baszler, and Lo Shirai. A formidable unit would be formed by Baszler’s ruthless and overpowering style, Shirai’s charisma and high-flying skills, and Rousey’s expertise in submission and intensity.
There are countless possible plot twists. This group of women might become a force to combat oppression, working to topple the established hierarchies within the women’s division. They may go after opposing factions or reigning champions, igniting fierce competition and exciting games.
The foundation is already being set, even though nothing is formally established. A female Shield equivalency would be a logical step for WWE, which has been steadily laying a solid basis for its female Superstars.
Pay attention to WWE RAW as the women’s division’s environment changes. There is no denying The Shield’s influence on professional wrestling history, and a female counterpart might be the subject of this fascinating story’s upcoming chapter.
