Jim Ross Praises WWE For Booking Shield Reunion

WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross spoke about Roman Reigns finally winning the Universal title as well as the reunion of the Shield recently on The Jim Ross Report (via Wrestling Inc). Here is what he had to say:

“The Shield back together was an epic moment for WWE and it is hard to hear a soundtrack of how wonderful it is to have The Shield back together when three guys are beating up one.” Ross argued, “my mind is seeing three guys beating up one and it’s a gang attack and I’m hearing, ‘it’s wonderful’. What? It’s one of those, ‘did you see that?’ [or] ‘can you believe that?’ lines. To me, you lay out and let it play out. The fans are going to boo who they want, they’re going to cheer who they want, but the bottom line, as ‘Stone Cold’ [Steve Austin] would say, The Shield is back together and I perceive that as a good thing. I’m a faction guy. I loved The [Four] Horsemen. I loved The [Fabulous] Freebirds. All that stuff, I loved those factions, The Andersons, where they had more than two guys. A lot of great factions. I can see others putting themselves together to form another faction to combat The Shield. All those guys in The Shield are big time stars. They all got a great opportunity to make a lot of money and I think the faction thing will be very beneficial to them over the long haul. So good for that, really good.”
