Dean Ambrose won’t be staying in the company after April. Wade Keller broke the news on PW Torch and soon after, many questions were asked.
Keller mentioned how WWE addressed Dean Ambrose’s departure on the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast. They could have done this for a couple of reasons, but both of them were for the company’s benefit. Here is what he said:
“I know they got asked by media and maybe they feel that they have a fiduciary responsibility to answer questions from investors or the media regarding somebody who has definitely said that they’re not going to be there you know starting in May. Or they just wanted to own the narrative and it’s a very big story. It’s a top, top guy for the last five plus years and there’s a report out there, an incredible report hopefully I can say that he had rejected their contract offer.”
“I mean can they ignore it? I’m sure there’s an internal discussion. It doesn’t come up much that a story of that magnitude gets out there without their controlling it. So maybe putting the statement out was just a way to grab the reins and say, ‘Alright we’re a little in control of this because we’re going to own what the truth is.”
With his departure a done deal, it is a wonder where Ambrose will go next. Perhaps AEW will contact him eventually.
So, we will have to wait and see what Ambrose does next.
