Dean Ambrose has given his notice to WWE, according to
media outlets. He is not set to re-sign with the company when his contract
expires after WrestleMania 35
in April. There is also the possibility that he could be leaving sooner if
there are no plans for him.
Ambrose has reportedly been frustrated with his character
development for some time now. According to the report, he recently reached his
breaking point. The report goes on to say that he was offered a new contract a
few weeks ago with a significant pay raise. Instead of negotiating, Ambrose
told management that he was rejecting the new deal this past weekend, including
directly to Vince McMahon in
a meeting.
It is unknown at this moment if he plans to sign
with AEW or
if his wife, RAW commentator Renee Young, will be leaving too.
When asked by The Torch, a member of the WWE roster
stated that while Ambrose is impossible to read, he "hates hokey
sh-t", which has been a part of his run with the company for years. It was
reported that Ambrose's intentions were known to a select few members of the
WWE roster.
Since returning from injury a few months ago, Ambrose has
been in a feud with Seth Rollins, adding a more unstable aspect to his
character. Many of his promos have involved blaming the audience. After winning
the Intercontinental Championship last December, he lost it quickly after to
Bobby Lashley in a triple threat match earlier this month. He had a lackluster
appearance at the Royal Rumble and this past Monday on RAW, Ambrose lost to
Rollins and was ejected from the ring by Nia Jax and Tamina.
Ambrose made his main roster debut in 2012 as a member of
The Shield. Since then, he has become a Grand Slam Champion, winning the WWE
Title along with three Intercontinental Title reigns and one United States
Title reign.
