WrestleMania 32 was essentially built around four major matches: Triple H vs. Roman Reigns, The Undertaker vs. Shane McMahon, Charlotte Flair vs. Becky Lynch vs. Sasha Banks, and Brock Lesnar vs. Dean Ambrose.

The match against Lesnar was the biggest of Ambrose’s career up until that point, so it was only natural that fans had big expectations about what carnage might go down, especially with the added stipulation of a No Holds Barred Street Fight.

As Ambrose later recalled on the Stone Cold Podcast, he had lots of ideas for the match but he was “met with laziness” by Lesnar, who went on to win the underwhelming match in 13 minutes and 6 seconds.

Despite the stipulation, which was presumably put in place to make a possible Ambrose victory seem more realistic, it never looked for a moment as if “The Lunatic Fringe” could win the match, and Lesnar picked up the victory when he hit an F-5 on his opponent onto a set of steel chairs.
