7 WWE Superstars Who Defied The Odds of 'Making It'

Dean Ambrose was adamant in making it in pro wrestling

3: Dean Ambrose

If you look at Ambrose, he isn’t your general, heavyweight wrestler. Ambrose looks like a regular guy who you could hang out with at a bar, but that’s why fans love him. Ambrose is them, and fans can relate to him as he fought his way to the top. In an interview with CBS Sports, Ambrose described being rejected when he first started out, mainly because of his age and size. Tenacity describes Ambrose best, as that highly paid off for the current WWE World Heavyweight Champion. In his case, size doesn’t matter, it’s the heart and Ambrose has a whole lot of it.
