Dean Ambrose, WWE Intercontinental Champion and former WWE World Champion Jonathan David Good is a famous American wrestler whose life story will inspire aspiring wrestlers in the coming decades. He grew up in a tough neighborhood in Cincinnati, and his only escape from the brutal reality he lived in was reading articles about wrestlers and watching matches. Dean Ambrose shocked the world when he started climbing the ranks, winning tournament after tournament.

Eventually, he won the WWE World Championship and was a two-time WWE Intercontinental Champion. But compared to all his accomplishments, Dean's greatest joy was buying a home for his mother away from the social housing she'd spent most of her life in.

Career

Jonathan was born in Cincinnati, Ohio on December 7, 1985. His father worked far from where he lived, and the future champion almost never met him. His mother worked around the clock to provide for him and his sister.

Jonathan grew up in a small social housing sector in one of Cincinnati's bleakest neighborhoods. Crime andviolence was a constant companion here. As a child, he often had to cooperate with criminals, for example, under the threat of death to help sell drugs. And he was constantly attacked by local hooligans, and the guy had to confront them. This prompted Jonathan to wrestle.

He attended a regular school, but became more and more interested in wrestling, trying to use it as a means of self-defense. In the end, the guy dropped out of training and began to train constantly.

His career began when he joined Les Thatcher in the HWA (Heartland Wrestling Association, Canada). At that time he was still a teenager. The young fighter competed in the ring under the name Jon Moxley, teaming up with Jimmy Turner. He ended up winning the 2004 HWA Tag Team Championship. Since then, nothing could stop John, and he became the winner of this competition three times.

His endurance helped him win the 2010 CWZ (Combat Zone Wrestling) Heavyweight Championship after two losses.

Transition to WWE

April 4, 2011, he signed with WWE (World Wresting Entertainment) and changed his name to Dean Ambrose. With WWE, he has repeatedly claimed multiple titles including World Heavyweight Champion, WWE World Champion and Intercontinental Champion.

The debut in this league took place in November 2012. Dean Ambrose, Ronald Raines and Seth Rollins interfered in the title match. Their grouping was called the "Shield". The team won several times, and inIn June 2014, Seth Rollins left her, who began to oppose his former comrades. In the same year at SummerSlam, Rollins managed to defeat Ambrose. He defeated Dean several more times.

2014 as a whole was pretty bad for Ambrose due to a losing streak.

In 2015, Dean Ambrose vs. Seth Rollins was scheduled for May. In this match, the victory was for Dean.

From 2015 to 2017, Ambrose scored a number of victories and won several titles.

He returned to the ring from injury in August of this year, competing with Rollins against Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre.

Private life and family

He is currently married to his longtime lover, WWE broadcaster Renee Jane Paquette, better known as Renee Young. The couple got married on April 12, 2017.

He eats a he althy diet and goes to the gym regularly, his workouts mainly include weight lifting and cardio.

Popularity

Dean has millions of fans today. On Facebook, fans have created his page, which already has 7.5 million followers. In addition, his fans have also created an officialInstagram account with over a million followers. However, his Twitter page says, “They made me tweet… Ok… Enjoy.” This is the only entry from 2012.

Facts of life

Future champion Dean Ambrose was obsessed with wrestling and wanted to start his professional career at the age of 16. However, the promoter of the Heartland Wrestling Association (HWA) did not indulge his desire and instead asked the guy to go to college, gain weight and wait a few more years. Jonathan had no such desire, so he decided to go to the HWA educational institution, where classes were held under the guidance of Matt Stryker and Cody Hawk. There he started working for the HWA, doing everything from selling popcorn to helping out in the ring, but still he couldn't train until he was 18.
