6 Ups And Downs From Last Night's WWE Raw (Feb 2)

UPS€

6. Ambrose Wants Gold

Apparently during Dean Ambrose€™s nonsensical tour of WWE headquarters last week, he saw pictures on the walls of previous world and Intercontinental champions and decided that he€™d like to have his face on that wall as well. Since Ambrose has already defeated Intercontinental Champion Bad News Barrett in a non-title match €“ and really, who hasn€™t? €“ he wants to cash in his title shot at Fast Lane. More than likely, that match will end in some kind of schmozz, setting up a title rematch at WrestleMania. (Or this could be the big match and both will just be in the Andre the Giant battle royal so we can save time at Mania for a Flo Rida performance.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Bc7xCluVIg Snark aside, a massive fan favorite like Ambrose announcing he actually wants a secondary title €“ unlike John Cena, who has made no reference to taking the United States Championship away from Rusev €“ is a good development. Now, if only the IC title wasn€™t treated like a joke and whoever was champ didn€™t lose every non-title match. Maybe that can change if and when Ambrose wins the title.
