#3. Professional wrestling as an escape from Dean's childhood
Nothing in life comes without work and effort. In order to achieve success, there needs to be some dedication and a desire to achieve. What presents even more of a challenge is when there are external forces that could prevent you from achieving success.
That is where it takes a very special individual to overcome those odds and break through. For Dean Ambrose, wrestling has always been his career path and a dream that he had to achieve in order to overcome the unforgiving realities life.
As a young man growing up in some of the more dangerous parts of Cincinnati, Ambrose was surrounded by violence. It appeared as though at every turn there was a challenge to overcome, not only to make a living but to continue living.
He had to sell drugs in order to not be beaten up. He found himself getting into fights while simply walking down the street. He needed a way out, and that way out was wrestling. There is no guarantee that Ambrose would be alive today if he continued to live the kind of life he was living.
