10 Wrestlers Who Became Everything They HATED

10. Dean Ambrose Becomes Miserable

Jon Moxley didn't cut his teeth in the wrestling biz to hate what he was doing on TV every week or question how long the creative torture would last. He isn't the first to find out first hand that Vince McMahon's creative genius wasn't exactly exhaustive, but Mox is one of the highest profile examples from the final stretch of McMahon's WWE run.

The then-Dean Ambrose suffered through a thoroughly miserable time right before leaving the company for the brave new world over in AEW. Since, he's openly discussed how depressed he was when appearing in that inoculation skit, or when turning into a cartoonish Batman-style villain that was neither fleshed out nor particularly well thought out.

His style isn't for everybody (buckets of blood during random Rampage matches is hard to justify!), but Mox is the kind of wrestler who wants to have fun on his terms and express himself. WWE's rigid corporate ladder in 2018/2019 didn't allow for that, and so Deano darted off to see what was happening elsewhere on the wrestling map.

Becoming miserable at wrestling shows was never Moxley's wish, but that misery smacked him in the chest harder than a GUNTHER chop.
