Dean Ambrose, now recognized as Jon Moxley, remains a standout figure in WWE history, leaving an enduring impact despite his departure from the company five years ago.
The memory of The Lunatic Fringe still resonates with the WWE Universe, and recent developments in NXT hint at a nostalgic journey for fans.
In the upcoming NXT Roadblock event, Dijak and Joe Gacy are set to clash in an Asylum Match, intensifying their ongoing rivalry.

Taking to social media, Dijak revealed his intent to study Dean Ambrose’s past performances, particularly in the Asylum Match against Chris Jericho at Extreme Rules 2016.
Expressing his intention to draw inspiration from Ambrose’s strategies, Dijak’s homage suggests the possibility of subtle tributes or reenactments of memorable moments from the AEW star’s career during his showdown with Joe Gacy.
While WWE may shy away from direct mentions of Ambrose’s current persona, fans anticipate subtle nods that could evoke strong reactions.
As the anticipation builds for NXT Roadblock, the outcome of Dijak and Gacy’s match remains uncertain, with potential callbacks to Ambrose’s legacy adding an intriguing layer to the event.
Meanwhile, speculation lingers over the prospect of Dean Ambrose, now Jon Moxley, making a WWE return. Departing from the company in 2019 due to creative differences with Vince McMahon, Moxley found a new home in All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he continues to thrive.
Despite his contentment with AEW, questions arise regarding the possibility of a WWE comeback. With shifts in WWE’s leadership, including Triple H’s increased involvement in creative decisions, the landscape has evolved since Moxley’s departure.
Under Triple H’s stewardship, Moxley could potentially find the creative freedom he once sought.
While Moxley’s return to WWE may not be imminent, the evolving dynamics within the company leave room for speculation.
Whether he chooses to return remains uncertain, but the notion of a reunion between WWE and the former Shield member remains within the realm of possibility.
