Off the mark? I think I've made like three posts about Ambrose combined. I'm waiting for him to actually debut before passing judgement on him, but the amount of people who overrate him and constantly nag about ''when will he debut'' is annoying and it is placing needlessly high expectations on him that he will:
A) not live up to
Or
B) WWE will only fuck up
I made that comment as a joke, but WWE care a lot about the look aspect of wrestlers. Ambrose has a average joe appearance and that doesn't do him any favors. I get that it's different and that has it's own appeal, but WWE, in particularly Vince McMahon, would push a guy like Ryback over Ambrose just based on his appearance. I guess guys like Punk are exceptions to the rule. I can sort of see both sides of the argument, pro wrestling is a lot about image and presentation, buying into larger-than-life characters, Ambrose doesn't look that, but to me it's not that big of deal because I'm a fan of guys like Punk, Ziggler, Christian who aren't these huge characters.
For some reason I doubt Dean Ambrose will be featured too heavily on Saturday Morning Slam.
I salute you on your sig sir. I've been praying for years that that chant would catch on. Swore if I ever went to a Raw or PPV (only ever been to SmackDown) I would bring a megaphone, and before they opened the doors, make a speech begging everyone to do the chant. Haha
On topic, the mark in me is begging for a Heyman faction to rise, and Ambrose be recruited for it. One can dream.
The man is 6'4" and 225lbs. He's no monster, but he's still a pretty fuckin big dude. Put on a bit more muscle and he'd even be bigger than Stone Cold in weight. He's taller anyway.

That's likely he's billed height/weight. I've heard accounts that he's around the same size as Punk, who's built at 6'2, but is more like 6'1 or 6ft.
Regardless, it's not about his height, I was talking about his image. His overall presentation. Just look at your signature. Does that scream the megastar that you Ambrose fanboys have overrated and hyped him up to be? It sure doesn't to me. It will be a big deal when this guy debuts because he have to live up to these crazy expectations, that you fans of his have caused, as I said in my previous message he'll either: A) Not live up to them B) WWE will fuck it up (don't think the great Dean Ambrose is going to be an exception to that, they fuck up everything).
And lol at comparing him to Stone Cold. Stone Cold had a badass look and was ripped as hell in his time, unlike this Ambrose who likes some emo kid.
It does seem like to somewhat have an idea of where they want to go with him, because they've chosen to keep him off WWE TV, even NXT. It seems someone in the office (probably HHH 'cause he deals with FCW talent) thinks he's great and should debut on one of the big shows, and feels he need a good storyline first before debuting. I hope he debuts soon, but am really glad he's not on NXT.
Doesn't mean anything. Most up and comers lose a dark match once in a while. I'm pretty sure that Ryback lost a dark match before the character made it onto television.
