The RAW results are in, and Dean Ambrose has apparently finally become a heel.
Since Dean Ambrose returned, it was only a matter of time before the creative team made him a heel. Everyone from the wrestling industry insiders to fans agreed that this was the most likely outcome, especially after all the RAW titles were concentrated on The Shield and The Dogs of War.
With that in mind, the creative team constantly teased an Ambrose heel turn, but they never delivered at the moments the fans thought they would. At WWE Super Show-Down, Roman superman-punched Dean, and everyone thought that would be the final straw, but apparently, Dean shrugged it off as an unfortunate accident.
On this week's RAW after getting pinned by Drew McIntyre, Dean left his brothers in the ring, signaling that The Shield might just have broken up. In this article, we take a look at how a Dean Ambrose heel turn would play out.
#5 Reconcile with his brothers
Lets get this one out of the way from the start. There is a possibility that Dean Ambrose might choose to reconcile with his brothers.
The bond between The Shield runs deeper than the bonds between many other tag teams because they view each other as a family. And the truth about a family is that they will always be a family, no matter the ups and downs they might face.
With that in mind, Dean may choose to put aside his differences and once again rejoin the most dominant stable in sports entertainment history. That is the path most fans do not want him to take.
#4 The Road to SmackDown
With SmackDown 1000 coming up, it would be a significant victory for Paige if she managed to poach Dean Ambrose from RAW in time for the event. Dean previously achieved success on his own while on the blue brand, and he has hinted that he could have gone back to SmackDown.
With Dean on SmackDown, the blue brand would be untouchable in terms of ratings and star power on the brand. Dean could even face off against Shinsuke for the United States Championship, and become the new leader of Nakamerica.
#3 The Lone Wolf
The creative team may choose to make Dean stand on his own, and not join any faction. As a lone wolf, Dean wouldn't have the benefit of having someone in his corner, but he wouldn't have to worry about someone stabbing him in the back either.
Dean could also focus on any of the singles titles without worrying about hurting anyone's feelings. At the end of the year, if this is the path Dean chooses to follow, he might be the Universal Champion.
#2 Join the Dogs of War
With all the mind games Dolph, Drew, and Braun have been playing in recent times, the possibility remains that Dean would choose to align himself with them. Braun might even kick out Dolph, who would subsequently join The Shield, to make space for Dean.
This would effectively be a trade between the two factions, Dean Ambrose for Dolph Ziggler. Tell us in the comment section which group you think would become stronger because of such a switch.
#1 Dean Ambrose - a Paul Heyman guy
This is the most likely direction this storyline would take because of two reasons. One, because of Paul Heyman's appearance during this week's RAW which might be a way of foreshadowing the events.
The Beast normally accompanies Paul, but with Brock's current attention focused on UFC, Paul has no one to do dirty deeds for.
The second reason is that Bobby Lashley turned heel. If Paul Heyman is recruiting, Bobby Lashley and Dean Ambrose would be his best bets. Bobby and Dean have unparalleled strength and in-ring ability, not to mention the charisma Lio Rush would add to the team. If Brock returned, the team would dominate the entire WWE.
