The Shield Vs. Big Show, Sheamus & Randy Orton At Wrestlemania

There's more than one match at Wrestlemania that might feature a heel turn. Why would I bring that up for the six-man tag involving The Shield, Randy Orton, Big Show, and Sheamus? Because TNA did recently have that swerve with Bully Ray. Will the WWE pull something similar at Wrestlemania?

First of all, should these three faces be the ones to hand The Shield their first loss? I still think Ryback should have been a part of the team that does it. This team just seems randomly put together over the last few weeks. Big Show turned face to be a part of it. Orton wasn't on the team at the previous PPV that fought The Shield. Sheamus has been feuding with them for a while, but it still doesn't feel like this entire team fits together well enough. Besides, The Shield's momentum just hasn't been built up well enough. When that happens, you can usually expect the side without the momentum to win. In this case, that would be The Shield.

How do you make this more interesting? You can have The Shield sneak a victory by one member of the face team making a mistake. Big Show accidentally punches out Orton? That could lead to a feud between those two, or any other combination of the three, and The Shield lives to fight another day. But having one of these guys turn heel at Wrestlemania and join The Shield may be so much bigger. The gimmick the stable has is already pretty much dead. This "Hounds of Justice" thing Michael Cole says is dumb. When was the last time they really pushed that aspect of the gimmick? But adding a new member might refresh things. He obviously won't be the mastermind behind the group. It was already revealed why The Shield did what they did. Now they need more of a purpose. Having one of these former World Champions join them can give them a new purpose.

Who should it be, if it happens? Big Show? Too easy. Sheamus? I don't see it coming. Randy Orton would be the best choice. I can picture him being a part of that stable. And it has been a while since he has been heel. It has also been a while since he did anything too major. This would be major.
