Ryback
Although he may not technically be IN the shield, he is the weakest link.

Came in expecting Anne Robinson managing them, leaving disappointed. Man, why is that not a thing? That should definitely be a thing. Then you'd have a ready-made tension with Reigns having to either side with Rollins who is managed by the cold and calculating Anne Robinson or with the unstable psycho that is Dean Ambrose. Because they'll totally try to give Reigns a push I don't think he's ready for, he'll be a badass and spear everybody... I understand why that's not a thing. Even my imagination is way too conflicted about it. Anyway, I think it's Reigns. Rollins will at least have good matches to back him up. Ambrose will be able to promo his way to credibility. Reigns has some catching up to do to really justify that push we all know he's going to get.

Gotta be Ambrose. The only thing I've taken away from most of his matches is that he sells stuff like a cartoon character sometimes.

Rollins is like Ziggler to me, he sells so well that I legit buy that he's the weakest member of the group. So he gets the vote for me.

Ambrose has been the least impressive for me.

Whomever voted reigns has never watched a single Shield match. I'd vote Reigns. I actually could make a pretty legit case for Ambrose but I think Reigns barely edges him out. Rollins is carrying the Shield atm. I know that's the smark thing to say, but it's true. He's not carrying them in character, or in aura, or anything like that...but he's the one making these matches happen honestly. Now duh, Reigns in kayfabe is the strongest member of the group. It's the kind of thing though that just falls apart if the others don't make it happen. I think the whole group falls apart of any one of the 3 doesn't do what they do though, so this isn't some slight on reigns. It's a close thing though. Reigns is going to end up being the most pushed of the group. I think most of us can see that much. I LIKE REIGNS. He's been integral to the group. Take away the spear booking, are you having fun watching him? I mean he's not complete garbage but...that's really about it. Keep in mind what I said. The group falls apart without him. But again, it falls apart without either of the other two. I have to pick someone though. When they try to push Reigns as a single wrestler, which there's a pretty strong likelihood they will, do you think that'll hold strong? I don't see it. I mean it can work but...more than just a match or two on ppv for fun? There isn't much there yet.

Honestly Rollins, no real chance to stand out in promos, no real definitive finisher either. He has it but hasn't gotten a chance to show it either He has the Shiranui(Sliced Bread), as well as a top-rope knee drop, but of the 3, Roman is usually set up to deliver the finisher, since he is the most physically impressive of the 3, the other 2 set things up for him.

Roman Reigns is the powerhouse/brute of the group. He's kinda the quiet one although sometimes he speaks, he'll mostly roar during matches and beatdowns. Being strong and quite fast, he is one of the biggest challenges to opponents of The Shield.
Dean Ambrose is more of the leader and mastermind of The Shield. He is also the most sadistic, aggressive and craziest member who wrestles an old school style with crazy selling, mannerisms and facial expressions. Ambrose is also the talker as he cuts insanely good promos.
Then we have Seth Rollins. He is a good wrestler but I do think he is the weakest link of The Shield. Rollins is the one who gets his ass kicked the most and his voice makes him sound like a nerdy, pipsqueak teenager. The thing that makes him stand out is the stupid Kaitlyn hair.

Kayfabe wise, getting beat up the most is basically his job. The only reason that Roman is able to his some of his spears and the like, or why they won the TLC match, is because Rollins is there to take the damage and provide the distraction. None of them can take the abuse he takes and continue with the match, so kayfabe, he is in many ways the toughest guy they have, durability taken into account, even with Roman being the strongest and Dean being the leader of sorts. Dean calls the shots, Reigns deals the damage, but Rollins is usually the reason the faces have their guard down long enough to eat the spear.

Reigns sucks. Terrible seller, no interesting offense, no acting ability. The only thing he brings to the table is "intensity," whatever that even means (it means nothing).
It will not be worth it when his megapush fails and everyone sours on him, because it'll still be annoying that they'll have sacrificed Rollins and Ambrose to him to do it.

Reigns is the Nova/DOTS damage, and I guess Dean is in charge of debuffs or something.

Seth Rollins is a fine wrestler, but he's going nowhere as a singles performer. He's basically Tyson Kidd II.

Ambrose, to be honest, is the one who stands out the least to me. I do think he has a lot of potential, though, and probably has the most to gain from the eventual break-up.
