Seth Rollins began his career as an independent wrestler who wasted no time making an impact in the world of sports-entertainment. After becoming the first NXT Champion in August 2012, Seth Rollins quickly moved on to join forces with fellow NXT standouts Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns to wreak havoc on WWE. Rollins, Ambrose and Reigns debuted in WWE at Survivor Series 2012, attacking Ryback by smashing him through the announce table and costing him a title match against WWE Champion CM Punk. The group returned the following night on Raw during Punk’s 365-day championship celebration, sending Ryback through the announce table once more. When Rollins, Ambrose and Reigns finally spoke a week later for the first time in WWE, the trio denied any involvement with Punk. Rollins said they “saw things heading in the wrong direction,” so the group “stepped in and righted those wrongs.” Rollins referred to himself and his cohorts as “a shield from injustice in WWE,” and Ambrose aptly named the group “The Shield.”
Following that interview on Raw, The Shield attacked Ryback a third time, assaulting Team Hell No in the process and leaving Punk the Superstar standing tall. The trio continued their in-ring attacks, until Ryback and Team Hell No finally retaliated with a counter-offensive — one that saw Punk injured in the process. McMahon announced that The Shield would take on Ryback & Team Hell No in a Six-Man Tables, Ladders & Chairs Match at WWE TLC. Rollins and company may have seemed outmatched going into the contest, but the pack of predators proved just how vicious they could be when they picked apart their more experienced opponents and won the brutal match. In their second officially sanctioned WWE match at Elimination Chamber, the dangerous trio shockingly defeated the all-star unit of John Cena, Sheamus and Ryback, and doubled up on the win the next night when Ryback and Sheamus teamed with Chris Jericho for another go at the invaders. As the weeks went by, Sheamus continued to mix it up with the men in black, with Randy Orton eventually joining his cause. But The Shield may have inadvertently taken their brash tactics one step too far when they accidentally accosted Big Show on SmackDown and recived a KO Punch for the slight. On the March 4 edition of Raw, The Shield formally introduced the giant to their dreaded triple powerbomb, which led to Rollins competing in the trio's first singles match against the giant the next week. The Shield decided to let Rollins suffer a disqualification loss en route to another beatdown of The World's Largest Athlete, which they followed up later in the evening with another attack on Randy Orton and Sheamus. The trio challenged Orton and Sheamus to a Six-Man Tag Match with a partner of thier choosing at WrestleMania 29, but Orton & Sheamus' initial choice, Ryback, was eventually removed from the contest, and it fell to another Shield target, Big Show, to step up and fill the roster spot heading into The Show of Shows. Rollins displayed his willingness to put his body on the line in the name of justice at WrestleMania, hurling himself from the ring to the arena floor with reckless abandon. That reckless abandon, combined with The Shield's teamwork, helped the trio to victory in their first appearance on The Grandest Stage of Them All when their opponents' shaky bond crumbled. The Shield looked to make their most glorious conquest yet the next night on Raw when they encircled The Undertaker, but Team Hell No quickly came to The Deadman's rescue and sent the NXT invaders into retreat mode. got the last laugh two weeks later, however, when they defeated The Phenom and Team Hell No in a Six-Man Tag Team Match on Raw. Four days later on SmackDown, The Shield added insult to injuiry by Triple Powerbombing The Phenom through the announce table on SmackDown moments after his defeat of Ambrose in a singles bout. On the June 2 episode of Raw, after Batista left Evolution and WWE,[105] Triple H revealed his "plan B", which turned out to be Rollins attacking Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns and rejoining The Authority, turning heel once again.[106] Rollins later explained his actions by stating that The Shield would not be a success without him and Ambrose and Reigns were not his brothers, like they claimed, but business partners to help him move up in WWE.[107][108] On the June 17 episode of Main Event, Rollins, acting on behalf of The Authority, entered himself into the traditional Money in the Bank ladder match for a WWE World Heavyweight Championship contract at Money in the Bank,[109] which he won after Kane knocked out Ambrose and held the ladder in place for Rollins to climb.[110] Rollins defeated Ambrose twince, at Battleground, in July, via forfeit, after their match was called off by Triple H since Ambrose attacked Rollins backstage,[111] and in August, at SummerSlam, in a lumberjack match.[112] On the August 24 episode of Raw, Rollins defeated Ambrose in a Falls Count Anywhere match and injured him after executing a Curb Stomp through cinder blocks.[113] Rollins was scheduled to face Reigns at Night of Champions, but the match was cancelled after Reigns had a legitimate emergency hernia surgery, with Rollins winning the match via forfeit.[114] On the September 29, episode of Raw, Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury aligned themselves with The Authority and statred acting as bodyguards to Rollins.[115] At Hell in a Cell, Rollins defeated Ambrose in a Hell in a Cell match after Bray Wyatt interfered and attacked Ambrose, officially ending their feud.[116] At Survivor Series, Rollins captained Team Authority in a five–on–five elimination tag team match against Team Cena, in which Rollins was the sole survivor and was eliminated by Dolph Ziggler.[117] Rollins continued his feud with Cena in December at TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs, which led to a tables match, which Cena won.[118][119] On January 25, 2015, at Royal Rumble, Rollins competed for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, against Cena and Brock Lesnar, which Lesnar won.[120] In February, Rollins started a war–of–words feud with The Daily Show host, Jon Stewart, claiming that he can host the show better than Stewart.[121]
Randy Orton returned from an absence and attacked Rollins following his match at Fastlane,[122] which led to a match at WrestleMania 31, where Orton defeated Rollins.[123] Later that night, Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract during Lesnar and Reigns' fifteen minutes match, making it into a triple threat match, which Rollins won pinning Reigns to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship for the first time in his career.[124][125][126] Rollins continued his feud with Orton after WrestleMania, which led to a steel cage match, with Orton's RKO banned and Kane as the gatekeeper, at Extreme Rules,[127] where Rollins retained his championship.[128] In May, tension rose between Rollins and Kane, after the latter announced Rollins' title defence against Orton and Reigns at Payback,[129] and after Dean Ambrose defeated Rollins on an episode of Raw, he was added to the match.[130] At the event, Rollins retained his championship, after performing a Pedigree (Triple H's finishing move).[131] Rollins retained the championship against Ambrose, on May 31, at Elimination Chamber, after he got himself disqualified for shoving the referee,[132] and, on June 14, at Money in the Bank in a ladder match.[133] At Battleground, Rollins retained his championship by disqualification against Lesnar, after The Undertaker attacked Lesnar.[134][135]

With the win, Rollins became the first and only wrestler to hold both championships simultaneously.[137] Rollins lost the United States Championship back to Cena, at Night of Champions on September 20,[138] but was able to retain the World Heavyweight Championship against Sting.[139][140] On October 25, at Hell in a Cell, Rollins successfully defended the championship against "Demon" Kane, and as a pre–match stipulation, "Corporate" Kane was fired as Director of Operations.[141]
On November 4, during a match against Kane at a house show in Dublin, Ireland, Rollins tore the ACL, MCL, and medial meniscus in his knee while attempting to execute a sunset-flip powerbomb. The injury required surgery and it was estimated it would take Rollins out of action for approximately six to nine months. As a result, Rollins was forced to vacate the WWE World Heavyweight Championship the next day, ending his reign at 220 days.[142][143]
