Jon Moxley On If WWE Can Create Another Stable Like The Shield

When The Shield first debuted on the WWE main roster they made an immediate impact, and they spent years dominating the competition. Eventually the group split up, and each member went on to become a top star, but there’s no denying the legacy that The Shield left behind.

When the group first arrived in WWE they got a lot of people talking, and they carried a mysterious aura. During a recent interview with Metro former WWE Champion Jon Moxley was asked if he thinks WWE can recreate The Shield’s success, and he explained why things are different now.

“Anything could work. I mean, it’s different because you’re a known commodity on NXT now, whereas when we came in we were complete nobodies. So, there’s a benefit to that. On the one hand, nobody knows who you are, but on the other hand, you have a completely fresh slate, you’re a complete mystery. You can come right in and starting whooping whoever’s ass you want! The Shield might be the last big act that came from that old way of doing things before NXT really. You can do anything with anybody if you commit to them.”

Moxley went on to emphasize that if WWE followed through with it then they could potentially create another group as successful as The Shield.

“The problem is – it doesn’t matter if they’re on NXT, if people know who they are or they don’t. If somebody’s getting over, you’re giving them the opportunity to get over, you’ve gotta actually follow through on pushing a guy or girl. It doesn’t really matter where they came from! That could definitely happen again, it’s just they gotta follow through with it all the way!”

Do you think WWE could put together another group like The Shield? Sound off in the comments below.
