Who would you say is the more dominant faction? It’s gotta be between these two. Evolution has 4 former multi time world champs, while the shield has 3. As much as I like the shield better I gotta give it to evolution. All of their members have been in a world title match at mania. 3 of them main evening mania and the other being Ric f***ing Flair

needs more HHH options so i'll throw DX into the mix- two multi time world champs, several multitime tag champs, several midlevel belts in a time where there weren't as many belts to go around.
though more fluid membership helped in that regard while shield/evolution kept their original formation their entire runs.
Hart Foundation falls short IMO as non Bret related title holders were thinner on the ground
and we certainly can't ignore APPLE...

Between the two I rank The Shield higher. As an actual group I thought they were more impressive. During a lot of Evolution's run the whole thing still felt centered around Triple H whereas The Shield really came across strong as a unit.

The Hart Foundation
Bret's heel turn basically triggered the Attitude Era.

As a unit, The Shield. In tag/six man matches they were damn near unstoppable. As individuals, Evolution.

I can't believe The Union isn't an option.

In terms of creating stars, Evolution had two already made men in Triple H and Ric Flair.
The Shield took three guys from nothing and made three world champions out of it.

I would have loved to have seen a faction feud with them against The Corre at the time. They were only together one time. Then again, so was that one faction with Hunico, Epico, and Primo.

Shield because it made all 3 into main eventers and I don’t think that was always the intent. Evolution already had HHH as cemented main eventer along with Flair. Orton and Batista surely benefited from Evolution but at least in Orton’s case was always planned to help make them stars
