WrestleMania 41 is set to deliver one of the most electrifying shows in recent history, packed with high-stakes matches and shocking storyline twists. One of the biggest surprises leading up to the event is John Cena’s unexpected heel turn. He has joined forces with The Rock in a bid to capture a record-breaking 17th World Championship.
Another highly anticipated matchup features Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk in a Triple Threat battle. Their rivalry has been building for months, intensifying since the 2025 Royal Rumble, where Punk eliminated both Reigns and Rollins. The tension escalated further when Rollins viciously stomped Reigns onto the steel steps and brawled with Punk, temporarily sidelining Reigns. Now, fans eagerly await the next explosive chapter in this heated feud.
Could Dean Ambrose Return to Reunite The Shield?
As tensions continue to rise between Reigns and Rollins, speculation is mounting about a long-awaited full Shield reunion. Their history and past hints at a comeback have led many fans to question whether Dean Ambrose (now Jon Moxley) might return at WrestleMania 41 to reunite with his former allies. A Shield reunion against CM Punk would deliver both nostalgia and high drama, given Punk’s complicated past with the group.
However, despite the buzz surrounding this possibility, one thing is certain—Dean Ambrose will not be returning to WWE at WrestleMania 41.
When Could Dean Ambrose Return to WWE?
Jon Moxley remains a top star in AEW, where he has been thriving since leaving WWE in 2019 due to creative frustrations. Since then, he has played a crucial role in AEW’s success.
In 2022, he extended his contract with AEW for five more years, ensuring his tenure with the company until 2027. His new deal also expanded his role, allowing him to take on additional backstage responsibilities in mentorship and coaching. With his contract running through 2027, a WWE return wouldn’t be possible until at least WrestleMania 43.
Could The Shield Reunite in the Future?
A WrestleMania 41 return isn’t happening, but a future Shield reunion is still possible. If Moxley chooses to return to WWE after his AEW contract ends, fans might witness The Shield reunite on the grand stage. For now, the spotlight is on WrestleMania 41’s ongoing storyline and the thrilling matchups ahead.
