10 Reasons Dean Ambrose Will Defeat Brock Lesnar At WrestleMania 32

9. The No Holds Barred Stipulation

The No Hold Barred stipulation is a deliberate move by WWE. It gives Ambrose an equaliser against Lesnar's significant size and weight advantage, thus making it more realistic that The Lunatic Fringe could beat The Beast. It's a big clue that Ambrose is winning on April 3, with the stipulation perhaps being booked solely with an Ambrose victory in mind. They could have gone the straight one one on route if Lesnar had been going over. The weapons aspect looks to be there so fans can suspend disbelief and invest in a guy like Ambrose going over a monster like Lesnar. The gimmick also keeps Lesnar's heat burning strong in the aftermath. Losing to a bunch of weapon shots is easily explained away by Paul Heyman the next night on Raw.
