Between 2004 and 2011, Dean Ambrose worked on many different promotions under the ring name Jon Moxley. While he was a well-known figure on the independent circuit, his real claim to fame came during his time in WWE.

While many men such as AJ Styles and Samoa Joe already had a huge following before coming into the company, Ambrose didn’t have the same behind him. Ambrose's development came after he reached WWE, and his character was also refined in the company.

Ambrose proved to be a strong pillar in The Shield, and the three-man faction consisted of extremely diverse characters who worked very well together. Even during his time battling alone, The Lunatic Fringe provided a completely different character for WWE to work with.

With his departure, WWE will lose one of the biggest characters they worked on as Ambrose never really changed his character completely unlike many other superstars. His character development took a long time and building another Dean Ambrose from scratch will prove to be a tough task.
