Slow climb to the top
When Dean Ambrose slowly climbed the ladder after pushing Owens away, with no one in sight to stop his climb, it seemed so much of a metaphor for his career. It’s been two years since The Shield ended.
In those two years, Reigns has won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship three times. Rollins cemented his legacy in one of the greatest WrestleMania moments ever by cashing in his MITB contract to win the greatest prize in WWE. Ambrose has been waltzing in the mid card becoming really popular but never catching a big break.
Until tonight.
He lived up to his promise. He won the Money In The Bank contract. He cashed it in on the same night. Not on Reigns but on Rollins. AND. HE. WON.And just like on Raw, Ambrose was the last man standing
You haven’t seen Ambrose look like he was about to cry since he faced Seth Rollins at SummerSlam in a Lumberjack match.
This emotion was a bit different; this was him showing everyone that there always has been a method to his madness, that he has moved on from making hasty decisions and screwing up his moments. He captured this one gloriously.
