10 Precise Moments Wrestlers Wanted To Jump Ship

10. Jon Moxley

Status In WWE:

They liked him, quite a bit, but you wouldn't know it from his booking. Dean Ambrose was presented as an upper midcard heel in late 2018, working a grudge programme opposite Seth Rollins that dominated RAW. The issue is that the creative, while committed, was total dog sh*t. Ambrose was repackaged as a cheap heat-seeking germaphobe whose act was offensive to both good wrestling and good taste.

He inoculated his arse and wore a gas mask to protect himself from the vermin in the crowd: picture Bane from the Dark Knight Rises, only you were unfortunate enough to ascertain what he was actually reciting from the pages of those abysmal scripts.

Why And When They Wanted To Leave:

On his infamous Talk Is Jericho appearance and as detailed in his book 'Mox', Moxley said he was depressed, angry, and in a "living hell". His mood worsened with every week, every script, but he reached an epiphany very shortly after making his return around SummerSlam. When training for his comeback, he watched several live concerts. He wanted to feel the rush of performance vicariously. Within weeks of his offensive and piss-poor feud with Rollins, he realised that he had missed wrestling.

He just hadn't missed sports entertaining, which in late 2018 amounted to collar-and-elbow tie-ups in a blood feud.
