Major Rumor/Turn being discussed for Payback

In no way am I saying that TNA's Triple X team is on the level of success as the Shield despite both having two really talented individuals (i.e., Rollins/Ambrose, Daniels/LowKi) and one new guy with flashes of brilliance (i.e.Reigns and Skipper), but having the Shield reunite at this point is like having Triple X reunite back in 2007. It'll just seem odd and confusing.

If anything, I can see tandem moves from Reigns and Rollins at times, but Ambrose's history with Rollins will make any notion of the Triple Powerbomb highly unlikely (Unless Reigns, Orton, and Ambrose perform it on Rollins).

I loved the Shield and I was torn when they broke up, but now? I 110% do not wanna see this happen.

I think Orton should eat a Triple Powerbomb at Payback, and Rollins goes for a fist bump before Reigns and Ambrose proceed to kick his ass.

Well let's say they pull the double turn, I think I have a decent idea to make it work.
Let's say at payback at the end of the match, they triple PowerBomb Orton allow Seth to get the pin, and do the shield pose with Seth holding the world title. Seth comes out with the Shield and Authority on raw the next night and goes on about how he's the architect and the smartest man in the wwe. Reigns and Ambrose have Seths back for a while helping him defend the title. But slowly tension starts to rise In the authority, mainly due to Reigns and Ambrose. This leads to members of the authority being laid out backstage. starting with J&J and Big Show. Kane goes to the ring and demands answers from the shield (the only members of the authority not to be laid out) Seth insists he knows nothing. Dean says something to the effect of "the only way to destroy, is from the inside out" he attacks Kane and is about to go after Rollins when Reigns lays him out with the spear. Revealing that the authority has actually gotten to Reigns. Seth remains champ, Reigns feuds with Ambrose for a while before dethroning Cena for the U.S. Title. Reigns is allowed to grow and develop, before starting to believe he's above the U.S. Title and wants the world title Rollins currently holds. The authority grant a match at the next major PPV where they turn on Seth in favor of Reigns. They beat Seth down post match where Dean makes the save. Allowing it to come full circle. It will never happen but that's how I'd handle it

That could work. But it's too much of a slow-burning storyline for WWE these days. They'd rather jump to the big payoff which is what they're essentially doing with this match at Payback. Call me biased (and I know that you will really hate this man but...) I want Brock to absolutely destroy Rollins when he comes back. I'm a Rollins fan, but I still want Lesnar to get the belt back.

Have Reigns turn and become Rollins muscle. Ambrose stays baby face (he's mega over) and can challenge his two former bretheren. Finally Reigns turns on Seth and gets over as a face

Loved the Shield, but after all Seth has done to those guys that just wouldn't make any sense.

While Cena & Orton are the most well established, tere is no active face talents who are hotter right now than Dean Ambrose. Seth Rollins is the hottest heel besides Brock Lesnar, & he HAS to carry the Pay-Per-Views. You can't have your heel champion with heroes to challenge him. We need 8,000 CCs of Face talent, & we needed it since the Royal Rumble.

If Vince & Hunter had any foresight, they would use this gift horse of an opportunity in having a light-heavyweight wrestler as the world's champion, & elevate wrestlers who deserve a chance to be main-event talent, but weren't believable opponents for Lesnar. Neville was given such a chance on RAW, but now it's time to do it on Pay-Per-View.

They need to build new main event talent, & as much as I wish creative would just give us meaningful programs, they seem almost incapable. So why not use the champion in a more traditional fashion to elevate the highest mid-card talent to main event status?

Add me on board to those that don't think they should do the turns of Ambrose and Reigns. Again, I want to see the Shield back at one point, but the smart move, would be to do it, as a face team. Down the line, have Rollins loose the title, and get left hanging in the wind by the Authority, and eventually it leads to Ambrose and Reigns coming to his aid. Also, if you have them reunite, with any of them, being world champion, it ruins the dynamic of the original run. There was never really a clear cut leader to the group, they were equal ground, but if one is the World Champion, he's the main guy of the group.

Yep.

Reigns vs Lesnar, most people thought was great. Everybody was surprised at how solid the match with Show was. Reigns is finally improving, but now it's like he gets Cena hate. Getting ridiculous.
