This is a topic that is very relevant these days as we are seeing one of the greatest factions in WWE history dominate the scene for the last few years and this raises a very interesting debate as to which is the best WWE faction of the last 20 years. There are 3 that come to mind and we will talk about all 3 below and amongst them I leave it upto my readers to decide which one is the best.
Before we talk about these factors I want to say that all the 3 factions that we will be writing about today have made history in their own way and they are all in the running for the greatest of all time. These superstars have entertained uw immensely over the past decade plus. Let’s see which are those 3 factions.
The Shield
Probably the most influential faction in wrestling history and one of the greatest of all time. They debuted in 2012 and since then the 3 members of The Shield have taken over the world. Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose were young wrestlers who wanted to make a name for themselves and they did just that. For over 2 years, The Shield were the most dominant group in WWE and all 3 of them held titles including the Tag team Titles as well as the United States Championship. And now after 10 years since their debut all 3 members of the group are Champions and 2 of them are the World Champions of their companies. They rule wrestling.

The New Day
The new day in my opinion are the most inspirational faction of all time because very few people who looked like then have such incredible legacies and they in my opinion are greater than the Nation of Domination. The New Day debuted in 2014 but were booed by everyone and nobody liked them but slowly everyone became their fan and they won tag team titles one after the other and one time they held it for a record 483 days and that Record will be broken by the members of another faction which we will talk about later. The New Day have 2 WWE Champions, A King of the ring, United States Championship, Intercontinental Championships etc.
The Bloodline
This is the most recent faction out of all 3 of them but the dominance that they have shown and the way they have grown is amazing. At first it was Roman Reigns who was the only member then with his incredible reign as Universal Champion, The Usos joined the faction and they won the tag team titles and are now on the cusp of breaking the all time record of 483 days. Then Solo Sikoa from NXT joined the group and we cannot forget Paul Heyman who is the Wiseman of the group and last but not least they added Sami Zayn and since that point The Bloodline has gotten greater and it looks like they will go from strength to strength
Who is the best ?
According to me The Shield is the greatest faction not only of the last 20 years but of all time simply because all the 3 members of that group are multiple time World Champions, they are the best wrestlers in the world and now they are carrying 2 wrestling companies and are still Champions in their companies. Seth Rollins is the best wrestler in the world, Roman Reigns is having the run of a lifetime and Dean Ambrose/Jon Moxley is the leader of AEW.
