5 Behind-the-scenes secrets that you need to know about Dean Ambrose vs Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 32

#2 Jon Moxley pitched a very different finish

Insane in the membrane?

Jon Moxley is not short of creative ideas. Before he became Dean Ambrose, he was wrestling in death matches in the indies, that were violent beyond comprehension. Jon Moxley wanted thumbtacks to be the centerpiece of a long drawn out battle.

And I had Vince, cause I asked him, ‘Can I have one thumbtack bump, please?’ And he said, ‘Maybe,’ with a smiley face. And I thought, ‘Yes, I’m gonna get it.’ So whatever it was at the end, I was ‘And finally … he f**king F5’s me into the f**king thumbtacks or whatever, and I’m on his back, choking him, and he f**king puts me in an F5 in the f**king thumbtacks, and then he doesn’t even bother covering me this time, he just puts me in the head-and-arm choke … he f**king chokes me out, my f**king arm’s up in the air and it’s starting to f**king fade. And then I flip the bird, and then it slowly fades, my arm drops and he chokes me to death after just putting me through the most f**king powerboming me and f**king thumbtacks and F5ing me through f**king every f**king thing

Of course, over time, all his ideas were rejected. But he pitched a very different finish, which was almost similar to the Brock's match with Randy Orton.

I even pitched that he just elbows the s**t out of me and does a doctor stoppage. The same thing he did with Randy at SummerSlam. That’ll be cool. And you can’t say there’ll be blood because they immediately stopped the match.
