The Shield's Final Opponents Revealed For WWE's "Final Chapter" Event
One last match for the group...
It seems as though Dean Ambrose has had more farewell appearances in the past six weeks as Terry Funk has had retirement matches during his long career, but Sunday night looks to be his definitive final appearance with WWE.
The Shield: Final Chapter airs Sunday night at 9:30 PM EST on WWE Network, emanating from what was originally intended to be a routine live event in Moline, IL. There, The Shield will compete in a six-man tag, their final match together as a trio. It will also mark, for the time being, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns' last match as a team before Reigns continues on full time with SmackDown, while Universal champion Rollins remains on Raw.
According to Dave Meltzer, their opponents for the match are the very three men they defeated at Fastlane on March 10: Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley.
Additionally, the Intercontinental title will be defended at the event, as champion Finn Balor defends against Elias. Both men crossed over to the SmackDown brand as part of the Superstar Shake-Up this past week.
