Bengaluru, August 27: Last week on Summerslam, the Intercontinental Championship scenario changed with the shock return of Dean Ambrose. Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler were set to be involved in a stale matchup. But the creative team added a big twist to the tale with Ambrose's return to the promotion.
Ambrose's music hit the arena just as the go-home episode of Summerslam was about to go off air and this brought the crowd to life and got the audience at home glued to their TV screens. The Lunatic Fringe came out in support of his Shield pal Seth Rollins. It was a much-needed thing after the continuous beatdowns Rollins has received at the hands of Ziggler and his partner Drew McIntyre.
Most importantly, Dean Ambrose played the role of a neutralizer at Summerslam where he kept McIntyre away from the ring during the match to help Seth Rollins win the Intercontinental title. There was also a chance of seeing a shocker at Summerslam which did not happen. Fans anticipated seeing a heel-turn from the returnee. But The Shield members were able to get along well.
