The Shield's bringing a sword!? Gonna be interesting to see how they get around the blood ban...

They're bringing a sword? I will completely mark out/laugh my ass off if Jimmy Rave shows up woth that giant sword he got at Vince Russo's Ring of Glory.

I read someplace that maybe they're talking about that guy with the big sword tattooed on his chest...

Ambrose has mentioned bringing "The Sword" in two promos now. Another unlikely and over-thought, but interesting theory would be John Cena. I get that the recent attacks have been in an effort to set up the TLC match and to write Randy Orton off of television, but they've left Cena completely alone. Cena, who was originally supposed to be feuding with Punk before they went with Ryback. Cena, who provides more injustice than anyone else on the roster (Ziggler is being FORCED to put the briefcase he EARNED on the line?) I dunno, it just seems to blatant to ignore...

...or it might just be a figure of speech. ;;)

This. I think it's just a figure of speech in that they're a "shield" against injustice, but they are not, of course, an actual shield. So with the "sword", I think it's more like, they aren't protecting against injustice so much as they are actively targeting those people they feel are the perpetrators of injustice (being Kane, Bryan and especially Ryback).

Also, it might just be that I read too much fantasy literature and see it as a figure of speech instead of a foreshadowing.
