I find both Seth and Dean's theme too generic.Seth less, at least it sounds douchy which fits him At least Seth got a cool intro while dean had those nothing noises

Since it is an expiring contract and not a release, there is not a 90 day no compete is there? If not he could be free for double or nothing

If not he could be free for double or nothing A quick search shows that sometimes companies can go to court to activate the non-compete clause in even an expired contract to prevent the employee from working for a competitor. So if he goes to AEW, WWE could try something to stop him for 90 days; but anyone else maybe they wouldn't. And obviously, if he just leaves wrestling for a while, it's all moot anyway.

Damn watching him job to EC3 was depressing as hell. I liked his promo before the match though. I wish they had kept him heel, done a program with Finn Balor and then go face and do the shield thing with Rollins and reigns at the end of mania

Yeah, he's done. He gives no f***s and WWE's just gonna have him job to get other people over and ruin his credibility before he goes somewhere else because they're petty like that. I won't be shocked if he doesn't get a grand sendoff either, wouldn't be shocked if he sits out the rest of his contract. Just depressing.

Given we know Ambrose is leaving and he doesn't give a f*** I don't care what they do with him within the storylines now. We know the situation, we know why they're doing it so that in itself holds purpose compared to if he was still staying with the company and they had him do what he did tonight. Nobody's actually going to look good doing anything against him either. EC3 got no reaction from the audience when he beat Ambrose because the crowd knows he's leaving and they know why this is happening, nobody wins. We also got Ambrose cheers in the middle of Angle's promo, he'll be good.
Rather than trying to damage him on the way out they need to just give him some nice promo segments and let that be it because it won't help anyone pinning an Ambrose they know doesn't give a damn about coming into work lol.

Ambrose is going to become like Batista 2010 or whenever it was when he left. Ambrose will go out and say whatever and just have some fun really.No shits to give Ambrose could be a hell of a lot of fun.

I was thinking about this today, wasn't Ambrose a locker room leader with the other Shield guys? I wonder what the mood backstage is about one of the leader guys leaving.

He needs to start wearing weird ass fancy clothes and complain about babyfaces hugging corpulent ladies.

Isn’t this what any company in the history of wrestling has always done, though? You’re leaving the territory, you put over people on the way out. It’s a no-win situation. Ambrose loses, nobody cares because most know it’s just because he’s leaving. Ambrose wins, you’ve just made a guy lose his first main roster match to someone who’ll be gone in two months. The only solution I can think of that can please all parties is to just stop booking him on TV and let him sit out his contract.

Dean should really do the same because unless he's fighting someone like HHH or someone where it doesn't matter if he wins, he's just gonna be a warm body and it's depressing. Crowds are popping huge for him now too because they know he's on his way out.

Yeah Reigns and some others called him a leader. He's a different kind of leader though, he's more like a Sasuke instead of a Naruto-like leader. Naruto's the leader that gives speeches, inspires, leads, the the more talkative backstage guy, that's Reigns. Sasuke's the type who leads by actions, by doing, the quiet guy, that's what Reigns said when he described the kind of leader Ambrose is. This'll just give a few guys a chance to join Ambrose. Wouldn't be surprised if Ambrose debuts in AEW with a stable with 2 other ex-WWE guys.

When brought up in interviews with other wrestlers everyone describes him as being a very quiet guy who likes to keep to himself and be left alone. Doesn't sound like a locker room leader type in the slightest. I think while he's definitely someone who is well respected in the locker room I don't think the mood in the locker room is going to change much as it seems like he was a loner and not much of a locker room presence anyways. It seems like the only guy who would be effected by him leaving would be Rollins. The other people he's friends with are Reigns who is obviously out and Cesaro and the Usos who are all different brands.

No wonder he is leaving,he can't even beat some rookie with an injured arm. He is becoming the new Curt Hawkins but probably demands a much higher salary then him from Management.

The only solution I can think of that can please all parties is to just stop booking him on TV and let him sit out his contract. It's the way it's always been, but it's a different business now. In the old days, putting people over on your way out meant something and helped the new guys get established and diminish the person leaving's value. In general it's a "smarter" fanbase, and considering they even put it on their website, basically everyone knows he's going, so that's why he's losing, so it doesn't help the new guy. If he loses, it's seen as the company being petty, so if anything it gets people more behind the guy. If anything it'd be better to have the guy say his goodbyes, have a big match with someone, and do a mutual respect things at the end. So the company is seen as classy, the new guy doesn't just get a win, they get a big performance that proves thy're awesome and everyone comes out looking better.

First Enzo gets himself fired, now it looks like Dean's on the way out. Poor Nia. Easily the most entertaining Dean's been since the heel turn, though.

The only solution I can think of that can please all parties is to just stop booking him on TV and let him sit out his contract. As other people mentioned, the key thing being they said he was going. In that situation, as demonstrated by his match with EC3 is just to have him off TV. The fan base knows he’s leaving and it’s not like WWE’ll admit it in kayfabe so it’s better to either have a big feud ready for him or like you said, not have him on TV.
