It's like they never skipped a beat.

Two-thirds of the former Shield faction in Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose capped off their reunion in grand fashion at WWE SummerSlam on Sunday night, defeating Sheamus and Cesaro to become the new Raw Tag Team Champions.

The finishing sequence involved Rollins delivering a springboard hurricanrana to Cesaro from the top rope, sending him crashing into Sheamus. Rollins then connected with a superkick to The Celtic Warrior, followed by a ripcord knee to his face.

Ambrose caught Sheamus with his Dirty Deeds DDT to seal the deal, giving the gold to the Brothers in Arms.

In recent weeks, Rollins had attempted to win Ambrose's trust back after the two had a falling out on the June 2, 2014 edition of "Raw." Rollins smacked Ambrose and Roman Reigns in their backs with a steel chair, turned heel, and joined Triple H's Authority group.

The two finally came together last Monday night to combat Sheamus and Cesaro, touching fists in the center of the ring as they had done years earlier with The Shield.

This is Rollins' second run as a Tag Team Champion (Reigns), and The Lunatic Fringe's first.
