Dean Ambrose's WWE contract came to an end yesterday and the WWE Universe was preparing to move forward without The Lunatic Fringe but now it appears that the former World Champion could be heading back to the company with a new character.

Ambrose has changed his name on Twitter and posted the following teaser video for his return to the ring already.

Whilst there are no hints as to where "Mox" may land in the professional wrestling world, it is thought that both All Elite Wrestling and WWE are the main directions that the former Champion could be heading. It's likely that Moxley could be looking to debut his original character as part of the WWE roster once he has sat out his few months hiatus.

Whilst it's harsh that WWE could have tricked the WWE Universe into thinking Ambrose was gone only to bring him back as a new character, the company has repackaged superstars before, this is just another way of garnering attention ahead of his return.


#5. It makes sense

WWE gave Dean Ambrose's former character the send off that he deserved when he told them that he wasn't going to renew his contract. Even though many WWE stars have been looking for a release from the company in recent months, it appears that Ambrose is the only one who has been given an actual send off and the company has allowed him to leave.

The fact that WWE left the door open for Ambrose to make his return means that the former World Champion could easily walk back through that curtain knowing that he hasn't made any enemies.

There is no way that WWE would have given Ambrose the farewell tour that he was a part of over the past few months if they knew that he was going to head over to All Elite Wrestling, so the most sensible outcome here is that Ambrose will be heading back to WWE when he feels that he has had a long enough hiatus.

#4. WWE is in desperate need of heels

The Superstar Shake-up has left WWE in a little bit of a mess since Daniel Bryan's recent injury has sidelined him and left SmackDown Live without a main heel. This has forced WWE's hand and now Kevin Owens has stepped up to challenge Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship at Money in the Bank, but there is hope that Bryan will return soon so that the company has options.

Dean Ambrose spent a lot of time on SmackDown Live and was their main Champion following the original brand split but it didn't work out well for Ambrose, since AJ Styles took over the brand in the months that followed.

Moxley's teaser for his return has shown that he could be an interesting heel in WWE, as long as WWE books him correctly.

#3. His parting speech

Was Dean Ambrose referencing his own life with his parting speech?

Dean Ambrose said goodbye to the WWE Universe last weekend as part of The Shield's Final Chapter when he gave a speech telling the WWE Universe to never stop fighting for what they want.

He talked about how if the crowd worked hard and followed their dreams then there's a chance that they could be in the same position as The Shield one day.

This could be drawing parallels to Ambrose's fight over the past few years to bring Jon Moxley to WWE. Ambrose teased the character numerous times but in a PG environment it seemingly didn't make any sense for him to be a lunatic because he couldn't unleash himself.

Ambrose has finally reached the point where he can bring Moxley back and this could have been exactly what he was talking about and he could have been playing the WWE Universe the entire time.

#2. His wife works for WWE

Renee Young has remained with WWE whilst her husband has opted to walk away, and the main reason for this could be because there was always a plan to bring him back.

Over the past few months, Young and Ambrose's relationship has become a huge talking point on WWE TV but whilst he was a heel she was unable to juggle her character on commentary and talk about her personal life.

If Moxley made his return to WWE on the SmackDown Live brand away from his wife, then he would have a lot more creativity. It would also allow him to be the heel that he needs to be as Jon Moxley, since Young was interestingly one of the reasons that Ambrose's heel turn failed, but only one of the reasons; there were a number of them.

#1. The original attire

The WWE Universe will wake up this morning to a fantastic teaser video that shows Ambrose as his original Moxley character that he made famous in his earlier career. The use of barbed wire in the video shows how much of a hardcore legend Mox was, but one of the biggest talking points of the video is the fact that Ambrose has gone back to his original attire after The Shield split.

His white vest and his trademark blue jeans can be seen in the earlier shots of the video which could be a hint that he is still being controlled creatively by WWE. The teaser video for his return also seems very much like a WWE-made video, which could be a huge hint as to where he is going to end up in the future.
