Former Intercontinental champion Dean Ambrose was interviewed by Fox Sports regarding his WrestleMania match against Brock Lesnar. Dean was asked about his physical condition heading into Mania after absorbing so much punishment recently. He said :
“A lot of that is just taking care of yourself and training properly. I keep myself flexible, I just compete at my normal body weight. I'm trying to carry around an extra 30 pounds, a lot of injury-prone musculature. I keep my body in its most prime, healthy state and also I've just been lucky.
“On the other hand, I'm also constantly hurt. I've been hurt for 10 years. It's not like I'm not constantly dealing with a litany of injuries that I have myself. If it's not one thing, it's another thing but I've just been able to keep rolling.
“I've not had anything catastrophic happen to me. It's a funny thing because it's always like the crazy freak things. It's not like 'Oh he got hurt when he jumped off the top of the cage.' It's like 'He got hurt stepping into the ring' or 'popped his shoulder out giving a high five'. It's the little things you can't plan for. It's not anything that ever enters my mind.”
