Dean Ambrose On Why He Connects With The Fans And More

Dean Ambrose recently spoke to CBS Sports to promote WrestleMania 32 and more. You can check out the full interview here and read some highlights below.

What makes him different:

“I wasn’t ‘gifted’ in the way that Brock Lesnar or Roman Reigns or somebody like that is gifted, in that they got the physical attributes and so forth. I don’t have particular born-in talents and abilities, [but I have] an aptitude for this that a lot of people don’t have, just [from] being a student of this.”

Why fans relate to him:

“People can see through crap pretty easily. Just go out there and be comfortable. Be you. Be authentic. If you’re the real you, people can feel like they know you a little bit. I think that’s why a lot of people kind of invest in me. They don’t know me, but they feel like they know me a little bit, because I’m not putting on a front.”

Facing Brock Lesnar in a street fight:

“I’ve been through everything from fire to glass to thumbtacks to barbed wire. I’ve had body parts chopped off of me and sewn back on. There’s really nothing on a pain level, physical endurance level, that I haven’t had to deal with, you know? How long is he gonna be willing to try to keep me down before he starts getting frustrated?”
