Rewatching the match I have to say, this may have been the best 6-man tag match the WWE ever had and Shield had a lot of good 6-man matches during their run (TLC debut, Cena/Sheamus/Ryback, Team Hell No/Orton, New Day, both Evolution matches).
The match didn't even start and they got a "This is awesome!" chant followed by dueling "Let's Go Wyatt/Let's Go Shield" matches before first contact.

I was there live for it, one of the BEST wrestling crowds I've ever been in for an incredible match. I'll never forget the massive pop just from the match card graphic showing up. I was there with a friend who's a more casual wrestling fan and was split on who to go with for it and asked them and they were like "hmmm. Wyatt Family."

The 2014 Golden Snowcone winner for Best Match, the only time to date that it has been won by a tag match. May have been one of the last WWE DVDs I bought before the Network became available.

Amazing crowd for an amazing match. Hatfields vs. McCoys |

That match had such an insane atmosphere around it and absolutely delivered. One of those times you can see rays of an alternate show through through the diarrhoea mushroom cloud of WWE

One of the few times where both the build up AND the match were great.

The match they had on Raw in Chicago was the best one.

The Shield was a stable aa oddly very well booked in a way you dont expect of modern WWE.
they were pushed strong,put people over when needed and broke up at the right time. The Wyatt feud is testament of that booking

Probably my all time favorite match. The build leading to it was amazing and the fact it got a “this is awesome” chant before the match even started shows just how awesome the match was.

The Wyatt feud is testament of that booking Because Mox, Roman and Seth fought for everything Going to Vince and telling them shit like they not losing to Cena is what saved them cause they could have went sideways and just been a collective of boys to get their ass whooped by Ryback |

Mox, Roman and Rollins have all spoke on how they have tried to pitch shit and got pushed to the side during their singles run New Day may be the last group that could actually gang up on Vince and get their way. If the locker room learned to team up and do this shit, they'd have a lot better results |

If the locker room learned to team up and do this shit, they'd have a lot better results for sure funny enough " strenght in numbers" is a great way to go abour ir. The fact those teams were always on the same page is a big plus |

Is this the PPV match or the RAW rematch? Because both were awesome.

I saw them wrestle a post Raw dark match at Barclays and it was fun as hell. It ended in DQ so they brawled post match, Erik Rowan got hit with the triple powerbomb and Ambrose did a 3 count.

I remember this day very vividly because I was very hyped for this show and then my sister asks me to help her and her family move that day and I have no real choice, but to say yes. What followed were 11 of the most miserable, backbreaking hours of my life. I wanted nothing more than to just have a bite to eat and go to sleep, but I so badly wanted to see The Shield vs. The Wyatt Family, so I found the match via certain means and watched the match. Saying that it was worth forcing myself to stay awake is a massive understatement. It's rare a match has this level of anticipation and lives up to those expectations, but this match superseded every expectation that I had for it. It's become one of those matches that I will watch just for the hell of watching it.

Which, I'm 100% for and wished that more people had that sort of leverage. |
