By the very definition of his Lunatic Fringe nickname, Dean Ambrose is pegged as an erratic character, a zany performer, and the proverbial loose cannon.

With that in mind though, sometimes Ambrose has felt like almost a parody of himself over the past couple of years. It seems like he’s simply playing crazy for the sake of playing crazy, and it rarely seems to have any sort of impact on his in-ring success.
It doesn’t help that Ambrose yucks it up a little too much with his facial expressions, which mean audiences can at times struggle to take the former World Champion seriously.
Upon his return, a less zany Dean Ambrose would be a hugely welcome prospect for most wrestling fans.

About the author
Andrew Pollard
A longtime football and wrestling fan who's managed to somehow make a career out of writing and talking about such things, Andrew likes to think of himself as an entertaining, informative, and occasionally humourous writer and radio personality - although you may completely disagree with that.
When not writing or talking about the beautiful game and the squared circle, this Welshman can usually be found watching the not-so-mighty Wrexham AFC, scanning sports channels for any sort of football whatsoever, or re-watching classic Bret Hart matches of yesteryear. Elsewhere, Andrew is known as the Online Editor/Lead Writer of Starburst Magazine, a contributor for outlets such as TheRichest, WhatCulture, and TheQuiz.com, a radio presenter for CalonFM, and a panel host for Wales Comic Con.
