5 Reasons Why Dean Ambrose Turned Heel

#2 Weeks of storyline build

It was all leading up to this point, folks!

Now, some of you may have thought that this turn was a surprise. But let's be honest for a minute, folks. WWE has been building up to this point for some time now, and the heel turn has been in the works for some time now.

Whether it's been miscues in the ring, where Ambrose has accidentally been knocked out by a Superman punch from Roman Reigns, or McIntyre exchanging words with him backstage and convincing him to go his separate way or even when Ambrose stormed off, when Rollins called him a lunatic, WWE has spent time and effort into turning Dean Ambrose heel. Therefore, it was only a matter of time before this storyline twist actually took place.

If you thought that the heel turn came out of the blue, you haven't being paying much attention. This was bound to happen!
