I got a similar feeling listening to this, it's actually too sophisticated for pro-wrestling, certainly WWE. It's a fantastic story with a REALLY good, powerful message but it's not what people expect or want from a wrestling promotion. You can blur the lines, should in fact to write great wrestling, but the interactive nature of wrestling with a crowd to (ideally) create a rock concert type atmosphere makes feuds like this, so emotionally charged with such a sympathetic heel, very challenging to work as intended. It's a wrestling based story that belongs in a drama, not within the fictional wrestling universe.

This was a story about understanding trauma, the effects it has on not only yourself but those around you. This is a story about forgiveness of haneous acts. Frankly, the moment when he looked down the camera as Dean and said "you'll forgive me, because you have to, " gave me chills. Cause that felt too real. I respect Adam's growth and journey. But if I'm honest, I think he booked this so well BECAUSE of it. He has probably seen himself as a dastardly monster.

Adam has a sensitivity to issues, that's not only comforting, but helps me to understand a lot of my own emotions. Thank you so much, for illuminating these things that elude me otherwise. I had seen the light go out of Dean's eyes when I had seen that skit-thing, and was so confused. But y'all's perspective really helps me sort it out. Thanks for helping me understand the feely things that had made me wonder why I was so affected. Honestly, almost cried in empathy a few times in this video.

Same. Hope you're doing well, or at least ok in the 3 years since you left this comment. You're right, Adam is very astute and sensitive and emotionally-intelligent to articulate the feelings so well. The explanation of Dean's emotional state from 13:35 to 15:11 is a very similar place that I've been in myself, for longer than I'd like to admit. Don't really know how to get over it (tried counselling/therapy, hasn't really helped), I've just learned to live alongside the grief.

When Dean went on Chris Jericho's podcast, he mentioned that Vince did want to continue playing off of Roman's cancer announcement, but that he didn't want to say the stuff that was written. I do understand that using raw emotion in storytelling is often needed, but in this case, I think it hit to close to home with Dean and his friendship with Roman.

@@Zack_410 I've said this before, but Randy Orton is good at playing characters who would say this. While MJF is better at being a complete jerk and Charlotte is great at being the 'tall poppy', Randy Orton is good at mixing pure cunning and venomous hate that gives him the nickname of the Viper. Dean Ambrose would just be too good of a person to do that stuff, but Randy can actually be that malevolent.

I remember at the time thinking the motivation was so clear when the turn happened. Dean had always been an angry violent person who solved every problem with his fists (moreso than even the average wrestler). But here was a problem he couldn't punch. He can't DDT cancer and pin it for 3 seconds. He can't do ANYTHING about it. And he doesn't know what else to do. He sees Seth is in the same position. They're lost and powerless. So Dean, largely subconsciously, but maybe being just aware enough of what he's doing, makes it make sense. He makes himself the villain, because he understands that. He can be the bad guy, Seth can be the good guy, and they can punch each other. It makes sense. That's how it's supposed to work. And as long as they can keep punching each other, neither of them have to think about what's REALLY going on. If you want to get really meta about it, reality has become too painful, so he looses himself in kayfabe. Even the hypochondriac stuff can work if you do it right. Between Roman and his own near-death experience, why WOULDN'T he be on edge about his health? But go meta with that too. Make it explicitly clear that he's covering up this very real fear he has with a big silly wrestling gimmick. He's retreating further and further into "wrestling" because its the only thing he understands anymore.

He wants to take the past burn it down and start a new. And ya I do agree that the Germaphobe stuff maybe could’ve worked. It just should’ve been in the direction of life is precious and I’m not wasting time anymore.

my idea, turn him heel, it makes sense. He would be on a mega ego trip (he did in one month what some people take years to achieve if they ever do), he didn't even lose his belt, and he was injured for months. Put him in a rivalry with Rollins because of the injury, and have them become a huge problem as both are beating each other to a pulp, carry it down to Summerslam, with Balor winning, he tries to finish Rollins for good before Ambrose (who was also a victim of Balor) runs down and makes the save, before Balor beats him at the next PPV, this can set up the shield reunion, and give Balor some high profile wins. Kurt Angle tries to get him into Survivor Series for team but Balor refuses (it's not worth it), and instead faces Chad Gable (Kurt's Son) when he's forced into it. Balor enters the rumble at number one at the direction of Kurt Angle (since Balor refuses to compete on Raw if it's not for a belt, so Angle allows him to take time off, but in exchange Balor has to enter at 1, Balor accepts because of overconfidence. Balor finishes second to Nakamura but manages to eliminate Rollins who finishes third. Balor wins the chamber match (Balor, Rollins, Reigns, Miz, Joe, and Zayn), and advances to Wrestlemania to face Braun Strowman (who is undefeated, and took to belt of Brock at No Mercy and retained at Royal Rumble). Balor brings out the demon and gives Strowman his first loss, and wins his Universal title back, before holding onto it until Summerslam, where he drops it to Rollins, who finally gets his win over Balor. At this point, Ambrose makes his return for Summerslam and attacks Rollins, kickstarting their rivalry (Ambrose's injury and near death is motivation since Ambrose feels he's on borrowed time, and needs to make every moment count), which carries onto mania. Ambrose and Rollins finish with Rollins winning and sending Ambrose packing, and Balor beats Brock Lesnar before going to Smackdown. thoughts.

As someone who has watched multiple family members struggle with cancer I really appreciate the respect you gave to the emotions and feelings you experience when you face that.

I love how invested I get into these videos, Adam really has a way of making his angles feel like it’s really happening. When Adam said that once Dean was tagged in he Dirty Deeds Roman, I legitimately popped. It such a great swerve for a really awesome story

This had so much potential, can’t believe they dropped the ball with it.

These videos are about individual feuds/storylines, not someone's entire career. That would take an insane amount of time. I would maybe consider something like "EC3's WWE debut", "Drew McIntyre post-3MB", "Bobby Roode's main roster call up", etc.

The off handed comments always get me 😂

Recently I read an essay that talked about why wrestling is great, and part of its point was that wrestling is simplistic. It’s easy and basic and to many will seem trite and crass and juvenile. And yeah, I suppose to some degree that’s true, it’s not high art and sometimes that’s for the better. But thank you Adam for reminding me how wrestling always has the capacity to be more, to tap into real genuine human emotion through the connection that the fans can have with these real people who are on our TV screens. Your work may be fantasy, but that doesn’t mean it’s not incredible.

Beautiful booking man. The yellow streak “can’t erase your past” part ... Wow.

This was infinitely better than any writer that WWE could have or in this case actually came up with. Actually that’s not fair... this is better than anything Vince McMahon came up with. I fully believe the writers are actually talented and very creative, just none of their ideas get approved.

Touching on the subject of how to book a wrestler who will soon be leaving your company, let's compare 2 different ways to go about it... The WWE way: Use that wrestler poorly and make him look as bad as possible on his way out. The wrestler ends up with the competition and wrestling fans think to themselves "here's a wrestler that has more potential than he was allowed to show, I am curious to see if he can thrive in this new environment". The Adam way: Use the talent to the full extent of their ability and give him a feud people will talk about for ages. The wrestler then goes over to the competition and wrestling fans think to themselves "that's a great signing, but there's no way that this company can provide him a feud as good as the one he just wrapped up with the other company". Tell me which way would be more effective if you were the biggest wrestling company on the planet looking to undermine the chances of your competition to gain steam...

You could also make the argument that a wrestler coming off a hot angle like that would be more valuable and draw more attention

@dynamicjaethought7788

I think a third option also is possible to happen. Everything you said in option 2, but with an added notion that the wrestler DOES get another chance in the new place. It actually happens more times than you think it does. When people come from PWG, Stardom, New Japan, All Japan, Noah, Impact, ROH, CMLL, AAA or wherever...and put on amazing feuds/matches in those companies that are fondly praised/remembered by the fans in the know. Then the go to WWE(specifically NXT), and do the same there...happens alot more than it doesn't. Hell they could, even go back to where they originally came from in the first place, and remind the fans how amazing (and underutilized by Vince McMahon) they truly are...it happens all the time.

I think WWE actually do it to make an example out of wrestlers leaving for another promotion. If they did it Adam's way, it's almost like they're rewarding people for leaving. Then everyone on the card who is desperate for a push can just threaten to leave so they can get a good angle.

Adam doing the Dean Ambrose impression almost sounds like Avicii's Hey Brother.

That was beautiful. The story, the setup, the booking, the emotion, the way everything connected was probably better than anything I or any of us could have done in booking the end of Dean Ambrose's WWE run. I especially liked how real it felt in regards to the way these characters are presented in this emotional personal conflict and how in a way all of this can relate to the way we live our lives, especially with what you said at parts like 14:05 and 28:57 those are things that we probably need to hear in these troubling times and all the crazy things happening in the world right now. Well done Adam. Stay safe!

Fun fact: dean was intended to be romans first wrestlemania defense as champion

@dopestep6841

They were supposedly planning on having dean take the title off Roman before he got sick and before Ambrose made it known that he was leaving.

I think this is one of the best bookings Adam has ever done, I never thought I'd see a story about trauma and grief work so well in wrestling

How Adam would book: Ciampa going to the main roster. I know he doesn’t want to go to the main roster and I know they probably wouldn’t book him well but I think if they were to book him correctly he would be incredible on the main roster.

Genuinely love this series, and this might be my favourite. The best thing about these booking videos is that it’s not just “let’s put two good wrestlers in a ring and have a good match”, its using the characters and the history to create a story that even with an average match would have us all glued to our screens. This one is a genuine pull at the heartstrings, that plays with the balance of real and kayfabe, that uses the history of the characters as fuel, and a perfect sendoff for Dean Ambrose as a character.

This might be the most heartbreaking and intense rebook that I have ever heard in my life and I love it so much.

I'm new to wrestling of a few years and having all this very informative content really brings wrestling to life for me. Wrestling helps me on a totally new level and this channel helps me through my days. Thank you!❤♡

I love how these videos are consistent with each other, wish there existed a good wrestling simulator so there could be a Machinima of the Adam Cinematic Universe

I really love how Adam keeps his booking videos in line with the previous ones

The Three Stages of Hell match described here is one of the few times that I will say that getting color is 100% necessary for the story. During the I Quit portion, where Adam says it just gets ugly in the violence, both Dean and Seth need to get color. It makes the violence uglier, and also feeds into Seth's emotions at the end: "Look at us. We have one another's blood on our hands. This *has* to end."

@pendafen7405

Idk, colour would have seemed a tad distasteful in this instance, given Roman's illness.

When he said it’s a proper “I’m sorry I love you moment” I pictured it in my head how it would go down here. “ I’ll always love you brother” and boom he hits the spear

How Adam would book: Cesaro after WM30 How Adam would book: Samoa Joe Ec3 and Robert Roode main roster debut How Adam would book: John Cena road to redemption in 2013 How Adam would book: Bray Wyatt wwe championship reign How Adam would book if he could do TNA: Aces and eights, Fortune, and Immortal if possible

For aces and eights it was great up to the end where it was a mess I loved bully ray as the leader made lots of good talents but the ending was jumbled

"Do you have your valet ticket? I'd love to bring your car around"

I can imagine Ambrose screaming into the mic, almost breaking down, holding back tears with so much anger inside him Desperately shouting "You don't get to make this choice Seth"

Masterful storytelling as always my friend. I've been watching you since you started making videos for WhatCulture & I'm still so happy your back!

Step number one: don’t get concussed

As soon as Adam mentioned that this storyline should be a continuation of 2014 break up I liked it

This was a ride and a half to listen to. Since returning to YT this is your best booking I would even say it's one of your best full stop. Thank you for an amazing video Adam :)

Fantastically done, as always. I was really impressed with your comparison to that Hieronymus Bosch painting. Very nice touch 👍

What would make this storyline even better. Seth who's looking for Dean all over the arena but can't find him. Xavier Woods tells Seth that as he was driving to RAW he saw Dean's car parked outside of a bar. Seth packs up and goes to the bar to confront Dean Ambrose. Later on that night, Seth walks into the bar and sees a slumped Dean Ambrose with empty bottles scattered. Seth realizes what's going on and tries to wake up Dean. Seth with tears in his eyes grabs Dean and puts his arm around him and carry's him out. Seth now realizes what this man is going through. Seth turned on him and tried to make his life hell, and now Roman is in the hospital. And Dean Ambrose is drunk and this is the only way he knows to ease the pain.

Dude… no. Absolutely not. Not after what we know about how deep Jon’s alcoholism really got. This would be very insensitive and would mirror WWE’s treatment of Jake Roberts during the worst period of his life.

I love how you are literally changing the WWE landscape througout these videos. Absolutely amazing storytelling as always. Jam that Jam

Wow. always impressed by how well you hit the emotional notes of the stories. I love how human and true to life the story is. Dean's grief. Seth's surrendering. When you got to Dean's promo after the I Quit match I imagined Renee coming out to plead with Dean to stop, then the part you had with Roman - wow. You managed to sustain the power of the beginning of the story all the way through. Well done.
