It’s the Ambrose Asylum
Dean Ambrose had the whole night to play around with the comedic aspect of his character and give SmackDown the sort of light relief the tag teams bring to Raw. He interrupted Shane McMahon’s little victory speech and was asked to leave the building. Of course, this didn’t happen as he popped up multiple times throughout the night.
At one point, he turned up with what looked like the worst pizza ever. I mean I know this is a bit of a strange tangent, but it looked awful. It actually put me off my little midnight snack I was enjoying whilst watching the action. Anyway, I digress…
Ambrose randomly dressed up as The Mountie in one backstage skit. You have to have been a fan for a long time to get the reference, so I think it was actually lost on the audience a little bit, which was a shame. I enjoyed the nostalgia trip and the fact it was the thing that finally pushed Shane McMahon over the edge.
Daniel Bryan sent Shane home and set Ambrose up for an easy pop with The Mountie’s catchphrase; “The Mountie always gets his man”.
Dean came back in full hockey gear (again, a bit random) during the main event to make sure Ellsworth got his contract. As much as I love Ambrose, the fact he sticks up for that jobber annoys me, but I can still take a positive from it, as we got to see Ambrose and AJ Styles go at it once again and it made me look forward to their TLC match in two weeks.
What makes Sting special? His first AEW opponent opens up RIGHT HERE.
