He actually comes across as a more natural wrestler to me, which i'm sure will be an unpopular opinion. He is a bigger guy which works more for WWE style, he has a solid moveset and sells really well too. He has the natural jerk appeal and punchable face that a guy like Mr. Kennedy or Randy Orton* has, but the charisma of a CM Punk. Everything he does is natural which it the difference between him and the dolph zigglers of the world.

Punk is about to lose his spot if he doesn't come back in 2014. When Shield breaks up this spring, Reigns is gonna become Batista-2006 status and Ambrose is gonna be the heel of the future.

Ambrose's appearance on Colt Cabana's podcast warmed me up to the guy even more (paws)


He has that switch a lot of the greats have. Where they can turn their character off and on when they need to live their real life.


They appeal for different reasons tho. Punk is like able because he seems like he was an underdog who made it in spite of his look and size.



Ambrose has that scumbag "I'll take the easy way out if it's there" way about him like an 80's horseman.

I love his character and he is as comfortable as Punk with the mic but I'm not sold at all on his wrestling yet. The NXT work I saw from him was way better than not only his WWE work but also better than what he did in the indys.

I'm not saying he wont get better though. Hell, Punk was average as fukk in the ring until the Morrison feud and even then, it wasn't until 2009 he became a legit great worker in WWE. So I'm confident Ambrose will get there eventually.

Uncertain grounds
I agree..although Im not sure if he "connects" with the crowd as much as Punk did and does. Maybe it's just the current gimmick.

I think he can make it big though. He definitely has the potential.

I also think that Cesaro may have more potential though (depending on mic work). He needs a face turn..but with the right booking both he and ambrose can be big time.

Im just blown away that out of all the shyt that WWE fukks up constantly, everything about the shield can be so piff.

More to the point of this thread, Dean Ambrose = :gladbron:

CM Punk has something about him that just makes people be on his side.... it's like a... cult of personality :troll:. Dean on the other hand will make for a better heel because he is just so good at portraying a slimy scumbag, it's easier for the regular fan to go against him.

I think his in-ring ability is far more natural, but his promos are the only thing that truly standout while being in the Shield. So far, he sells like an artist, and has great professional wrestling moves. He just has to come up with a few things that stand out along the way, and I have no doubt he will.

Dean has those natural heel mannerisms, and his promo work is solid. I think he could do great as a main even heel (in time.) Though I know he can go in the ring, he just needs a few things that really help him standout when he's working/beating down a face. Not really feeling that finisher either.

A sly heel that finds a way to steal wins suits his character well, as opposed to a straight chickenshyt heel one

He watched the Austin DVD and stole that presentation too...'Best in the World" gimmick=Danielson 2006. GTS=Kenta's finisher. Very good crybaby and complaining promos though.

yeah the sly heel and the cowardly heel are different and the former suits him better. Agreed.

His finisher should just be a simple DDT. That bulldogging headlock is kinda awkward, but it could grow. I'd just rather see him Raven nikkas by a kick to the gut and slamming himself backwards to drive heads into the ground.
