Yeah, and I seriously doubt he cares that much as he’s already on his way out and it’s sort of the norm to go out taking Ls. Besides, whether we like it or not, Nia is over. Plus, like someone said, this’ll only be a footnote in his already stacked and memorable WWE career. Nia is over because she was the “woman in a man’s match”... they could have put Tamina in that spot and the reaction would be the same. I wonder if guys like Undertaker, HHH, Michaels and Hogan would be under the impression that “losing to a woman wouldn’t kill my career!”... these guys wouldn’t even take a loss to Booker T. They would walk out of the company quicker. Those four guys are from an era where wins and losses meant something. Nothing matters in wrestling anymore. Ambrose could headline WM, win clean and win a world title, and it would be forgotten or meaningless after a few weeks at most.

If Nia beats him, I doubt very much it would matter to Dean at this point.
Nia attacked R-Truth and eliminated Mustafa Ali from the Rumble and both guys are doing pretty well for themselves including Ali getting ready for his first Elimination Chamber and WWE title match.

I reckon shell squash him fast, would be hilarious as she has more trouble with Alexa Bliss then any of the men so far.

I really think Nia beating Dean is a good idea. Dean doesn't have anything to lose anyway, because he's both on the way out and he's a smark favorite who can rebound anywhere he ends up no problem and if he does end up back in WWE one day he's got a lot of big moments to draw on for them to point to with no need to bring up him losing on the way out, while having Nia beat one of the company's top guys is a rub to the entire women's division by showing that someone like her, who while dominant is by no means unstoppable and has lost to a good chunk of the roster before, is able to hang with the men.

Cool with the match itself but there is no reason to care about this at all...this is what so many accused other companies of doing intergender for and that is simply shock value.
Well this is exactly that , there are no stakes here there is really barely a reason for this to happen at all this is WWE desperate to find anything to get their ratings back up.

EC3 is gonna be a top star in the company. Taking a L to an upcomer like him who’s won world titles in other companies is nowhere near close to losing to a woman. Seriously I can’t be the only one that thinks this, can I? Not only is it unbelievable but it’s insulting to ask a great wrestler like Ambrose to do that. He should be headlining Mania, not jobbing to chicks. It’s ridiculous man. Do it with someone like Hawkins or Slater. Don’t sabotage a former WWE Champ. What's with yall dudes in these threads making these messed up comments like this? Man I hope I'm reading your comment the wrong way. Nia Jax put the most popular star on hiatus which they're using to further a storyline. Nia Jax was taken out of the Rumble by Orton, Mysterio and Ziggler, Nia Jax was seen putting those paws on Ronda "I'm able to beat up Triple H" Rousey not that long ago. Yeah, she's a woman but she's clearly seen as one of the women who can go blow to blow with the guys right now based on storytelling. Her being able to damage Ambrose actually makes sense from a story perspective given what she's done these past few months.
Like...am I really the only one who can see they're building up Nia to be Becky's first post-WM challenger? Ronda's leaving, Charlotte's on SDL, Becky will need an opponent and what do you know, you've got Nia Jax out there who's someone who hasn't had a proper feud with Becky past that incident, someone who took a former world champion out of the company, someone who's seen as a real threat who can go blow to blow with the guys and Becky facing her is more proof that she can do it as well.
Does anyone else see this or is it just me?

They would walk out of the company quicker. I'm one of the first people to say that Nia sucks at promos, acting and is sloppy. However, I can't deny that she's over. She's not just over in the rumble context she is over, though certainly less so with Becky fans. That said, I really don't think this match needs to happen.
If it ever does grace tv though, you know there's going to be shenanigans. I don't think WWE would play this straight.

I guess so although I hate how he hasn't been allowed to talk on the main roster yet.

If he does the job to Nia, he’ll look like the consummate professional on his way out. Kayfabe is dead, and a loss to a Woman won’t hurt Dean’s career in the slightest.

And since this is about Ambrose, Ambrose lost a match to EC3 at a live event in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada yesterday. Ambrose cut a promo saying that he stole the last pretty girl out of Canada and turned her into an American lmao.

A loss to Nia Jax at a live event or a PPV isn’t going to hurt Dean’s career or stock. Hell, If they do this then it can lead to Dean snapping even more. A loss to Rollins, a loss to EC3, and a loss to Nia? They can easily lead that to a last hoorah Mania program for the dude before writing him off into the sunset. Plus, Nia is over. Not amongst Becky fans nor most dudes, but she’s over as hell. No denying that. And you know that crowd would be hot for an inter gender match between the chick who took multiple finishers in the rumble and the dude who’s on his way out.

Definitely sounds like he’s putting EC3 over with this program, then maybe the Nia program next and hopefully that’ll lead to him snapping and leads into a final Mania program before splitting.

It's interesting that Dean's going out like Jarrett did.

Kinda wish they turned Dean into a Rick Rude-esque heel instead of whatever he was after turning on Seth now. "Keep the noise down, while I take my jacket off, and give the ladies a good look at the sexiest man alive."

They're the same height ish and she outweighs him, but he has more visible muscle.
If there's an even intergender match on paper this is it. (if we ignore his experience advantage anyway)

No Ambrose is respected by the fans too much for that to be his lasting legacy in the WWE, if he loses to Nia will likely just be a footnote in his career. And at least Nia is over (whether people like her or not), Ambrose losing to the likes of EC3 clean are worse for him then losing to Nia EC3 is gonna be a top star in the company. Taking a L to an upcomer like him who’s won world titles in other companies is nowhere near close to losing to a woman. Seriously I can’t be the only one that thinks this, can I? Not only is it unbelievable but it’s insulting to ask a great wrestler like Ambrose to do that. He should be headlining Mania, not jobbing to chicks. It’s ridiculous man. Do it with someone like Hawkins or Slater. Don’t sabotage a former WWE Champ. You realize Ambrose is leaving the company right?

Jeff Jarrett jobbed to Chyna (who wasn't even as physically intimidating as Nia Jax IMO) on the way out in WWF and almost immediately became a main eventer in WCW. I don't think Dean will be hurt at all by this and this is even assuming he wants to continue wrestling.

Chyna may have been built like a man, but she was smaller than almost every guy she stepped in the ring with at that point. She had dropped a lot of muscle mass from her pre-surgery days. Nia is physically larger than all but a handful of guys on the roster. She's got something like 40lbs on Ambrose, so she's more than believable as a physical threat.
