So far, yes.
Got shitty booking after the split.

18+

Seth's hairline looks weird in that picture.

Dean looks like Robert Patrick to me.

Not even the top 100. I could make an entire novel filled with better factions.
The Ministry, The Corporation, The Corporate Ministry, The Union, Evolution, Right to Censor, Four Horsemen, Fabulous Freebirds, Spirit Squad, D-Generation X, New Day, The Nexus, The Corre, nWo, nWo Wolfpac, Raven's Flock, The Radicalz........

For killing ratings? Yes.

Maybe. But not in WWF history
>>
>>1452727
There was no consistency or logic to their actions. It didn't appear like they were a menace or out of control but rather a device to cause minor drama in the final minutes of every show. Like an overly used panic button to try and wake up the crowd. If there was a shield bible behind the scenes that dictated their rules, it could have been epic. They were fun, but in the rear view it just wasn't as great as it should have been.

I for some reason couldn't get into them. I really liked Seth Rollins. I thought the attires were good, but I'd rate the Nexus higher if you're talking about WWE in the last 5 years.

The Shield had no real flow to what they did. Everything was random. It just looked like WWE was desperate to make new stars so they forced this fast and threw belts on all three of them. So you could say, yeah it was rushed.

Dean, Seth and Reigns are top guys but it seems too forced down the throat. Dean's title reign looks like a "lets see how it works" kind of booking.

Nexus never had titles thrown on any of them but they legitimately got over with the crowd post-breakup.

Daniel Bryan, Wade Barrett, Bray Wyatt, Darren Young.

>he rates Nexus higher than Shield

how the fuck can anybody be this wrong
>>
>>1453632
For the fact that I enjoyed their angle as it had a more organic edge to it. You know rookies invading WWE. I did not however, give a fuck about Shield until someone kept telling me that "you're supposed to think they are the real deal".
>>
>>1452727
They're the worst draw in WWE history.

Vince needs to fire all of them.
>>
>>1452727
For what they were, and how consistently well they were booked, they're top-tier.
But so many more factions had greater impact on wrestling/their company; these guys' impact came after their break-up. Until they point, they were just a well-liked trio of upper-carders.
>>
>>1453646
Nash is the worst draw.

>Vince booking ruins their ability to draw
>fire the workers

fucking /wwe/ marks
>>
>>1452727
Did they think those airsoft masks looked cool?
>>
>>1453641
They were almost exclusively manlets that had previously been doing stupid reality show bullshit on live TV week in and week out before invading. The only intimidating looking one did nothing the entire time and left 5 months later.

Objectively don't know where /asp/ got this hateboner for the SHEBD from

Nexus had:
1. Better entrance music.
2. Better storyline.
3. Were unfortunately buried.

Hell I'd fucking peg them up the list just for the entrance theme. The Shield's theme is shit generic rock riff. It represents everything wrong with WWE material today.
>>
>>1455861
Blame Cena for not wanting to let them go over.
>>
>>1455894
I do. I like current Cena but 2008-2012 Cena was cancerous and on a burial spree worse than HHH's reign of terror.
>>
>>1455861
Nexus was full of fucking jobbers with no gimmicks. I thank God every day for them getting buried by Vince. Shields was nexus 3.0, they should have been buried too
