#2 Return to the indies

Ambrose may have appeared on the WWE's main roster at Survivor Series 2012, but that wasn't the first time fans caught a glimpse of the future World Champion.
Before entering the company, Dean Ambrose was a huge star as Jon Moxley, competing in promotions such as CZW, where he made a name for himself in death matches.

It's no secret that the WWE has had to restrain the Lunatic Fringe, in order for him to work with their PG, family entertainment programming.
On the indies, Ambrose would be free to push himself like never before, both from a physical point of view and as a character as well.
With there being no shortage of indie promotions in the U.S. right now, and even more globally, the former champion wouldn't have any trouble finding work.
