Death of The Shield (rasslin' related)
For those of you who are into that sort of thing, last night was the best heel turn on Raw since......I honestly can't think of the last swerve that was pulled off this perfectly.
I just read an article that compared Seth Rollins' turning on the Shield to Game of Thrones.
Perfectly, perfectly done
RIP to the Shield. It was a great run for those boys, but the timing couldn't have been better. Now we get to see what each of them can do on their own.

Wrong forum... NTR sports!
It's real to me dammit!
I don't watch the current product much, but I listen to every Steve Austin podcast and hear about them.
Shouldn't they have milked a swerve and had several near misses? Why keep evolution going because Batista needs to do Kelly and Michael to promote Guardians?

I realized I probably put it in the wrong forum about two seconds after I posted it...lol
Anyway, it actually makes perfect sense. They put the dagger into the hottest act in the company before it had a chance to run its course and run the risk of going stale. It's the old adage of "leave 'em wanting more."
Now we get the story of Rollins' motivation behind turning on his brothers. How did HHH get to him? WHEN did he get to him? They were bashing each others' heads in 24 hours earlier at Payback.
WWE has done an incredible job of storytelling over the last several months.

I was listening to JR (on his podcast) talk about guys like Swagger, Del rio, and just giving them a run...
I'd get rid of evolution and have those guys create a four man stable that has the tag belts, the IC, and the world titles.
I'd even call it "Enhancement" as a wink to the smarks.
