Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Jon Moxley: Shocking Statistic Regarding The Shield's Championship Dominance

04/15/2024 12:03 pm EDT

The Shield continues to gain prestige every passing week. Over a decade ago, the trio of Dean Ambrose (Jon Moxley), Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns made their collective main roster debut, interfering in the WWE Championship match at WWE Survivor Series 2012. Named The Shield the following night on WWE Monday Night Raw, this group would run roughshod on WWE for the next 18 months, beating legends like John Cena and The Undertaker while also collecting championships along the way. After splitting in June 2014, Ambrose, Rollins, and Reigns embarked on singles careers that immediately skyrocketed them to the main event picture. In just about two years, each member of The Shield had a WWE Championship on his résumé.

Ten years removed from their split, the Hounds of Justice continue to dominant the wrestling industry.

Five days after Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns lost the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and the Undisputed WWE Universal Title, respectively, Jon Moxley captured the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship, the top prize in New Japan Pro Wrestling. Moxley's world title drought hasn't been long, as he was AEW World Champion as recently as November 2022.

Moxley's win also resumes a wild statistic for his former stable. Aside from the five days in between WWE WrestleMania 40 Night 2 and NJPW Windy City Riot, at least one member of The Shield has been a world champion every day since February 29th, 2020.

This stretch doesn't include midcard championships or world titles from independent promotions. Within this four-year stretch, Moxley also has reigns with the GCW World Championship, IWGP United States Championship, and AEW International Championship to his name. Seth Rollins had a WWE United States Title run within this period as well.
