Dean Ambrose shaking hands with Vince McMahon
Now, Jon Moxley didn't exactly ask for a push from WWE but he did confront Vince McMahon for major changes, prior to his exit from the company. Jon Moxley's final run in WWE was truly a forgettable one and fans of Dean Ambrose certainly didn't hope to see the former WWE Champion leave on a bad note.

On the night of Roman Reigns' real-life leukemia announcement, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins won the WWE RAW Tag Team Championships, in what initially felt like one of the best feel-good moments in WWE history. However, shortly after their title win, Ambrose pulled-off the unthinkable and turned his back of Seth Rollins, betraying The Shield, and finally turning heel.
The storyline pretty much presented itself, as Ambrose found himself in the central point of instant heel heat and all WWE had to do was capitalize on the momentum. Instead, Ambrose was sent out wearing gas masks, took antidote shots on live TV, and pretty much became an enhancement talent on his way out.

In the aftermath of his departure, Moxley sat down for an interview with Chris Jericho on his Talk Is Jericho podcast and revealed that he had several confrontations with Vince McMahon where he would ask the WWE Chairman to make changes to his on-going storyline, however, the changes were never made and Ambrose eventually found himself on his way out of WWE.
Now, to many fans, it might've seemed that Ambrose was in a top position in the company, feuding with the likes of Seth Rollins but in reality, the storyline that he was presented with didn't go down too well with the WWE Universe.
