Dean Ambrose is a Grand Slam Champion in the WWE who is not present in any of the storylines leading up to Wrestlemania 35. It does not surprise us since he is leaving the company in due course. As reported earlier, WWE has already clarified that he will not re-sign his contract once it expires and become a free agent.
Who will replace Dean Ambrose in The Shield?
This does put a question mark to the current status of Dean Ambrose on WWE Raw. We have not seen him o TV for the last couple of weeks which is an indication that WWE has already moved forward to go without the presence of the Lunatic Fringe. Apparently, he has also made his final appearance, too.
We have seen Dean Ambrose reforming The Shield at WWE Fastlane for one final time. They have picked up a win against Bobby Lashley, Baron Corbin, and Drew McIntyre. But he suffered a brutal defeat at the hands of the Scottish Psychopath, McIntyre on the very next episode of Monday Night RAW.
After that, we have not seen Dean Ambrose in the main show of WWE Raw, anymore. The rumor roundup section from cagesideseats.com hinted that we have already seen the last of the former WWE Champion on TV. The match where he suffered a second big loss against Drew McIntyre was the final match of his WWE career.
There’s no way that we can expect to see Dean Ambrose in a wrestling capacity at Wrestlemania. However, we should note that he appeared in a dark segment following Raw, this week attacking Baron Corbin. He left the ring by signing towards the Wrestlemania poster which suggests something different.
We speculate whether WWE does have in store for him at the show of shows 35th edition. It could be his send-off night from a PPV event if only WWE creative thinks so. For now, WWE is likely to attribute his absence to the beatdown he received at the hands of Drew McIntyre for a couple of occasions.
Seth Rollins also talked about Dean Ambrose leaving WWE. He could not actually believe that his brother is actually leaving. But he wished the Lunatic Fringe all the best in his career,
“It breaks my heart. I get it. I understand this place can be frustrating. Sometimes when it pulls him in a different direction, that’s just how he’s gotta be.”
