10 Impulse Reactions Following WWE Great Balls Of Fire
9. Hollywood Ending
If Seth Rollins is gasping for air amongst the overcrowded pool of floundering midcarders, Great Balls of Fire concluded Dean Ambrose's year-long sink to the bottom.
Just a year ago, Ambrose was top of the heap. The whole heap. As WWE prepared to birth an entirely new roster split, the company had one champion, and the 'Lunatic Fringe' was it. Though it came a touch too late to capitalise on his once-soaring popularity, the decision-making felt sound. He'd never, and probably will never again, scale such heights.
Though his match with The Miz ended lazily with the most simplistic of screwy finishes, it certainly had to resolve any lingering issues he's long held with the 'A-Lister'. The two have feuded on and off for the better part of six months, traversing brands together with largely enjoyable conflicts on both Monday Night Raw and SmackDown Live!
Though a rather pedestrian end to their rivalry, it must mark the end of the road for both, allowing Miz to embark on another enjoyable run elevating the Intercontinental Title and Ambrose the chance to...what, exactly? He's lost to Elias Samson already, so that's covered. And Bray Wyatt. And Seth Rollins. The Rollins feud closed off a chapter as Shield associates. It must surely be time for a prologue.
