WWE Backlash 2016: 5 Things that went wrong

5- Dean Ambrose’s Reign Ends

What happens now for Dean Ambrose

This isn’t as much of something gone wrong as it is the end of Ambrose as champion. I knew going in this would be a marquee match, and it delivered. The fact Styles won via low blow and the Styles Clash solidifies himself as the company’s top villain. Forget what JBL said about the fans’ perception of him, this sets up nicely for a return feud with John Cena.

This pay-per-view was tailor-made for such a moment. How the company capitalizes on this moment is anyone’s guess and how quickly Cena returns to confront Styles is yet to be determined. The Styles Era is now WWE’s to deal with. I assume Ambrose gets a rematch, but Cena will be the one to take the belt away from Styles.
