5 years of The Shield: Dean Ambrose's best and worst moments in WWE

#8 Worst: WWE title reign

If Dean Ambrose’s WWE Championship win was spectacular, his actual reign with the title was anything but. He defended it at Battleground against Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, and then again at SummerSlam against Dolph Ziggler, before losing it at Backlash to AJ Styles.

During this time, he also appeared on the ‘Stone Cold Podcast’ on the WWE Network. The interview felt awkward from start to finish as if Ambrose didn’t want to be there, and it didn’t help that Steve Austin accused him of “resting on his laurels” as WWE champion.

There hasn’t been a ‘Stone Cold Podcast’ since, and one assumes the quality of the Ambrose interview is a major reason why.
