5 Roles Dean Ambrose could play at WrestleMania 35
WWE Superstar Dean Ambrose is in the middle of one of the most controversial runs in his career.
On the episode of WWE RAW, where Roman Reigns announced the news of his Leukaemia, it looked like there was going to be a feel-good moment to end the show. His Shield brethren, Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose won the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships to close off the show.

However, what was supposed to be a memorable tribute to Roman Reigns, turned sour quickly. Dean Ambrose turned on Seth Rollins, and attacked him, leaving him incapacitated inside the ring. The heat was huge, and it was possibly the hottest heel turn of the year.
Following his turn, it was believed that Ambrose was not used properly. Quickly, the heat faded away, and Ambrose was left with a silly gimmick of a germaphobe.
It did not go well at all, and following a few matches against Seth Rollins, what should have been the biggest feud of the year, faded away into oblivion.
Since then, it has been announced that Dean Ambrose will not resign his contract with WWE, which runs out following WrestleMania 35. WWE themselves announced that Ambrose would be leaving the company -- something they have never done before for any other Superstars.
Now, Ambrose is apparently playing a face again, hinting at his gimmick of the 'Lunatic Fringe'.
In this article, we will be speculating about the 5 different roles that Dean Ambrose could play at WWE WrestleMania 35.
#5 Dean Ambrose faces Drew McIntyre in a Stipulations Match at WrestleMania 35
Dean Ambrose and Drew McIntyre have squared off quite a few times in the past few weeks. In this time, it has seemed obvious that WWE was looking to put McIntyre over, and gave him the win over Ambrose.
Some of the wins were akin to squash matches as Ambrose was hardly able to do anything to put McIntyre away.
While it seems that Ambrose has made up his mind to leave WWE, a final Hardcore match against Drew McIntyre may be on the cards for him.
Ambrose is in his element in such matches, and given the talent that Drew McIntyre is, they could do justice to such a match. It would be a worthy last match for the Lunatic Fringe in WWE.
#4 Dean Ambrose puts over a new WWE Superstar
A tradition which has lived long and strong in pro-wrestling is that on their way out of the business, a wrestler puts a younger up and coming talent over.
This has been done, again and again, thereby creating new stars as they themselves head out the door.
While Ambrose's career is far from over, given the reputation that he has in WWE, a win over him would help many younger performers to have a good start in their career in the company.
One such Superstar is none other than EC3. With the two having one win and one loss against the other, if they face each other again in a rubber match, it should be at WrestleMania.
The fact that it will possibly be Ambrose's last match in the company will ensure the stakes are sky-high. A win over Ambrose there will ensure that EC3 has a lot of momentum, beginning a full-time career on the main roster.
#3 Dean Ambrose forms a new partnership for WrestleMania 35
Of late, there have been hints at an unofficial faction, which has been terrorising WWE RAW.
Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley have teamed up quite a few times to lay low the Monster Among Men. Each time, the performance the three of them have put forward have seen even a Monster like Strowman laid down.
At the moment, more than anything else, Strowman needs support if he is to stand up against them. One such Superstar who has had problems against these men as well has been Dean Ambrose.
Ambrose found himself pinned by Drew McIntyre recently.
A good way to ensure that their matches will be fair is for Dean Ambrose to team up with the Monster Among Men in a new Tag Team.
The two of them would have better chances of taking out the faction, and with support from Kurt Angle, this could see them come away with a win at WrestleMania.
#2 Dean Ambrose celebrates with Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns in a Shield reunion
Seth Rollins is on a one-way trip to face 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35.
On the way there, he could face a number of obstacles, but if the latest episode of WWE RAW is anything to go by, he might have gained back an old friend.
Following his turn on Seth Rollins, recently, Ambrose has been acting friendly towards him. He told him to 'Slay the beast' at WrestleMania, and faced McIntyre in the stead of Rollins when McIntyre was making overtures at the WWE 2019 Men's Royal Rumble winner.
If Rollins is successful at winning the title, one of the most heartwarming moments that could take place at WrestleMania 35 is if Rollins, Ambrose, and Roman Reigns come together to celebrate the win.
Roman Reigns has been out of action for a long time, but he has looked better recently. Coming out to celebrate with Rollins would ensure one of the biggest pops in WWE in recent memory due to the impromptu Shield Reunion.
#1 Dean Ambrose faces Triple H at WrestleMania
Dean Ambrose has obviously had a problem with the way he has been booked by WWE so far.
Recently, WWE has shown a trend of incorporating more reality into their programming and making kayfabe seem more real.
This could be an actual angle they follow, with Ambrose bringing up his grievance with Triple H -- who just wants him to sign the contract.
With crazy demands, Ambrose could ensure that the tension between them rise, circa CM Punk 2011.
The obvious thing to happen after this would be a match between Dean Ambrose and Triple H at WrestleMania, where if Ambrose wins, his demands are met in the form of a new contract. There have been WWE rumors that the contract problems have been a work by the company.
This could be the angle and match that it is all leading to at WrestleMania 35.
