If we ever break up platonically of course I'm doing this to you out of respect

We show up to Raw [the day of the betrayal] and they knew that if they gave us a heads up, we would say no and we would try to find a way to fight out of the breakup. So they brought us into the office and they just said, "Here's what we're gonna do tonight." Tonight. It was also in Indianapolis, by the way. Lot of Shield history in that town. And when we walked out of the room, it was like, "What do we do? Can we stop this? Are we doing the right thing?" There was a lot of tension there. It was mostly that we had found our comfort zone as a trio and we were really relying on each other and we enjoyed the process and we enjoyed performing together.

[But] what it set in motion over the last ten, eleven, twelve years, it has been a complete paradigm shift in our industry. You look at myself, Roman, and Jon Moxley, we're at the very tippy top. And if we had stayed together, it just wouldn't be possible. So, you needed that break. I was super fortunate that I was the one to be the catalyst for that, though I still feel the repercussions for that today. — Seth Rollins
