WrestleMania 32 was supposed to be Dean Ambrose's night to shine. With mega stars like John Cena, Randy Orton and Seth Rollins on the shelf, it was Ambrose's time to show everyone why he too belonged to the top of the ladder and was not just someone who got over with the crowd based on his gimmick.

Everything leading to his No Holds Barred Street Fight against Brock Lesnar pointed to a mammoth victory for the Lunatic Fringe. He was being portrayed as an equal to the The Beast and was showing a side of him that had not been seen since his time before WWE. Even hardcore legends Mick Foley and Terry Funk came out to support him.

However, everything went downhill when the bell rang at Mania 32. Not only was Ambrose beaten and battered like a dog by Lesnar, he didn't even get enough offense. Despite being a Street Fight, the only foreign weapons used were a pile of steel chairs, a kendo stick and fire extinguisher. On a night where he was supposed to slay the Beast, a humiliating loss to Lesnar halted all the momentum that Ambrose had gained over the past months.
