Fury pvp Tank: possible?

Okay, so what I was hoping for was some form of PvP Fury Tank spec, or at least some ideas.
What I was thinking was buffing up Cleave And Thunder Clap/Whirlwind (Depending on what stance I'll end up maining.)
My Idea was to use a shield and the fastest, hardest hitting Two-hander I can find. Armored to the teeth to increase AP for sure, and I figure that buffing up my shouts couldn't hurt.
Any other tips?

Fury wasn't built to work with a shield.
Can you be a tank in pvp? Sure.
Can you be Fury specced in pvp? Sure.
Can you be a Fury specced tank in pvp? You're not going to get far with that.
Not saying that you shouldn't try this out if it seems like fun to you, but I don't think that is going to be very successful.

I recently came across
this rather unconventional build
, which is slightly opposite from what the OP had in mind, as instead of using a Titan's Grip + Shield combo, it's designed for tanking while dual-wielding one-hand weapons. Effective talent build in raids (has been used to clear Naxxramas and Sartharion 10/25 player). Pretty much Godmode for questing, and little downtime. This is specially a build for the Fury build lovers who want to tank with a mix ;) The very interesting part about this build is the possibility to tank without a shield. The very fast attack speed and 4 sec cooldown to Bloodthirst (improved by glyph) makes it a very self-sufficient build due to self-healing. For good aggro building, cycling of Thunder Clap, Improved Cleave, Improved Sunder Armor is enough. Stamina determines your self-heal therefore it should be priorized. For optimal performance, choose items not related to shield capacities.
I have no idea how well this works, but with some modifications it sounds like it could actually be some fun in PvP, as long as you're not thinking about arenas. The build would hold itself very well against melee opponents, but I wouldn't expect it to fare well against casters due to the lack of mobility and the fact that you won't get to use Revenge against em at all, which should be your hardest hitter.

Hello , I tried to make a fury tank spec before using enough defence gear to be capped , but what i found is its much better to be prot specced and use as much dps gear as possible , easy to hold aggro don't take to much damage l, and can do 5k plus dps
So my view fom trial and error is go prot and use as much dps gear as possible , just be sure to have defense capped at 535
On a side note I ONLY USE THIS FOR HERIOCS ,
No.

If you want to pvp as Fury i would suggest a 3v3 team with 2 healers, but don't expect a gladiator title unless your battle group is really bad.
Doing fury with a shield isnt really how is was meant to be, not if you want a 2hander and shield.
It doesn't give you the cc as prot or survivability or the damage output as fury with 2 2handers.
You really have to pick which one you want to be, glass cannon fury or plate rogue prot.
Arms is still the best spec for a unexperienced warrior to pvp with, it has more mobility and more survivability then fury, but with a bit less sustainable burst. Prot has more cc, and survivability and a quirte nice burst potential with the right gear.
