Isenberg Reacts: WWE Royal Rumble “WrestleMania Matches In Sight”

Dean Ambrose defeated Kevin Owens

This is exactly what you needed this match to be. From the very beginning, Dean Ambrose and Kevin Owens said “to hell with wrestling” and fought. The intensity and the physicality never left a really good 20 minute match. With the use of chairs and tables, it was not OVERLY hardcore, but just enough for a Last Man Standing match. Dean hitting an elbow drop through the table really got the crowd into it. It went even better with a reverse suplex from Owens to Ambrose off the top rope. With more chair shots and a Dirty Deeds, Ambrose seemed to be in control. KO was able to escape and looked for a moonsault, but Ambrose pushed him off the top and through two tables. The ten count ensued and Dean Ambrose retained the WWE Intercontinental Championship.

Kevin Owens and Dean Ambrose likely finish up their feud tonight with an excellent contest. Bash Owens all you want, especially since I apparently did enough to get blocked on Twitter by him, but the guy is one hell of a performer. He sells just enough. He is physical to the max and he knows what to say. I love the little details in his game, where he screams about this match being about his pacing, about him. He gets it and was a great counterpart for Dean Ambrose tonight. As for Dean, he is the PERFECT Intercontinental Champion and I think a big match is on the way for him at WrestleMania. I just cannot see him facing anyone else aside from Chris Jericho.
