Dean Ambrose Says He Thought It Was A Prank When WWE First Called Him

Philly.com has an interview with Dean Ambrose here, who was promoting tonight’s Royal Rumble pay-per-view. During the interview, Ambrose was asked about his memories of Philly.

“I was living in Philadelphia when I got signed by WWE,” Ambrose said. “I was sitting there one afternoon, I just woke with a headache or something. I got a call from WWE that I thought was a prank, so I blew it off. Later in the day, I got more phone calls and I realized they were trying to hire me. It was completely out of the blue. I had figured if it was my career destiny to be an indie cult hero, then so be it.
