Dean Ambrose was very dedicated to the art of selling over the weekend. The WWE Intercontinental Champion faced Seth Rollins at a live event Sunday in Fort Myers, Florida. He retained his title over “The Architect,” who he has been feuding with for the past several weeks now. However, as Ambrose was celebrating inside the ring, Rollins got the last laugh. He came back to attack Ambrose to close the show.
Rollins hit Ambrose with a Curb Stomp to send the crowd home happy. That particular Curb Stomp might have been the most powerful Rollins has ever pulled off. After the stomp, Ambrose remained laying in the ring for 15 minutes, even after the crowd begun to leave. As fans filed out of the arena, Ambrose stayed laid out in the middle of the canvas. Also, Ambrose remained inside as the crew began to disassemble the ring.
Check out some photos from Ambrose’s dedicated sell job here below:

And by epic sell job, I mean Ambrose basically laid in the ring ko’d for 5, 10, maybe even 15 minutes afterwards. Well after Tom Phillips said the goodbyes and mostly everyone had left. #WWEFortMyers pic.twitter.com/6BhbHbY7At

Ambrose turned heel on Rollins last year shortly after Roman Reigns’ leukemia diagnosis announcement. In their feud, WWE has used a lot of real-life references to Reigns’ illness to help add heat to Ambrose. They’re still working house shows against one another as the Royal Rumble pay-per-view (PPV) approaches.
What do you make of Ambrose’s dedicated sell job?
