Ambrose will never be seen at that level

By Scott Keith on 18 July 2016

You recently said of the three Shield members that Ambrose will never be seen at that main event, potentially company-carrying level (not that anyone will ever again be a true breakout superstar, lest the company name seem secondary). Could you elaborate on this? He connects better with the crowd than Reigns. He’s as good as Reigns in a traditional match, and much better in terms of versatility and adaptability. He’s a much better talker than Reigns. He’s much more charismatic than Reigns. Reigns has nicer hair.

To me, the biggest thing keeping Ambrose in the area of a joke is the announcers constantly treating him as such.

​It’s cute how you think that Vince cares about things like crowd connection and workrate when viewing someone to take the spot from Reigns. You’ve gotta be the chosen one in advance to be allowed to get over as a top guy, and Ambrose is not chosen. Plus, as noted, Reigns has nicer hair. QED.​
