The Shield Talk Performance Center, Success in WWE

WWE superstsars Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns of The Shield talk about the new Performance Center in Orlando, FL, some places they trained at when breaking into the business and their quick success in the WWE.

[@ericvancleave5268]

Dean wrestled in the Salvation Army in Indianapolis as Jon Moxley....he is a super nice guy. Will answer any question, and will sit and talk to you like you are his bro.

[@xxjessabugxx]

A few of my old friends wrestled Jon moxley Brodie lee aka Luke and him used to travel together . And my friends actually hung out with him and he's a funny guy too . I wish I could meet him . But Jon aka has changed a lot with communicating with people and he's freaking badass and tons of talent I'm glad that Vince took him in

[@ericvancleave5268]

***** I'm from Indianapolis and last time he was in Indy he sent a tweet out and I got to meet the rest of the Shield. Roman is the strong silent type and Seth is a normal dude

[@xxjessabugxx]

He's a distant cousin see now my family came from Europe on my grandfathers side and the levesque family didn't come to America until the 1800s and the family tree is big

[@xxjessabugxx]

Scratch that off I just talked to my grandfather he said the levesques came to America in the 1600s .yup jean Paul Michael Levesque is my distant cousin .

[@TakersMissy]

"Dean wrestled in the Salvation Army in Indianapolis as Jon Moxley....he is a super nice guy. Will answer any question, and will sit and talk to you like you are his bro." Eric, that's wonderful to hear. I wish I could've met him back then.

[@SileX84]

Dean Ambrose, Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins have the IT factor. These guys will be some megastars for sure in the close future.

[@AbbzJordan]

When I first saw Dean Ambrose, I didn't think he was that attractive. My thoughts have changed though. I think he is very attractive and I love his voice.

[@TheCandela15]

EXACTLY! He makes my heart melt.....

[@boohoo8649]

Same. He grows on you

[@BigEvil2012]

LOL @ Interviewer trying to make eye contact with Ambrose and Ambrose is just looking around haha

[@SGTJDerek]

Roman comes from a LONG line of Wrestlers and he seems to have more respect and knowledge for the business.

[@carolinagomez2300]

Dean Ambrose was not impressed with this interview. lol

[@zachsmith1634]

lol Ambrose refuses to look at dude in the eye when he talks to him.

[@lisahunny27]

no wayy all three are all talented love them!!!

[@Goshoryuken]

Dean ambrose x ❤

[@OceanbornAngel]

I don't know why but the interviewer reminds me of those old ringside interviewers from the 70's and 80's.

[@katemctiernan7167]

Dean strikes me as someone who's probably shy and stand-offish in RL, but it somehow makes him more endearing.

[@hellohuman7300]

cant wait to train there!

[@moxgirl5]

LMAO it's so cute when Dean's talking about the ring he trained in in the warehouse and Roman laughs at him xD

[@MissTia777]

Damn Dean truly started from the bottom! A van for a dressing room?? LOL!!!! Damn!

[@Amanda-fk5nb]

dean ambrose is so hot

[@LlamaDrama142]

All 3 of these guys are the future. Guarantee it.

[@sarahkamal6531]

my god ambrose is amazing. hes so wicked i love him. i love all of them but i just love his energy. so intense.

[@TheNerdMan2]

People are idiots. Roman is great, but Dean is about a thousand times better. He´s got some crazy charisma about him. I like both, but both are stars.

[@TakersMissy]

Well, I totally believe that it was BECAUSE Dean came up in the business truly the hard way - starting out in rough facilities and then spending years in the indies in a variety of environments - that's why he is as good as he is today. He was no overnight success; he literally lived the school of hard knocks for what - around 8 years before he appeared on the WWE main roster. There's experience that ONLY experience itself can teach you, and while I'm not knocking the Performance Center, because it IS so "nice", it'll produce a different caliber of talent than the likes of Dean Ambrose and all others who made it to the top through years of grueling, old school-style experience.

[@muhammadzamar675]

Look at the chest of ROMAN 😯 Watching in 2020 during Pandemic, 7 Years gone and the Time is flying 😞

[@Yonkers93]

Dean is like this in all his interviews, such a laid back chill guy hahaha

[@gaarasuri]

lol Ambrose is like damn, is this interview over yet?

[@laqruishamondaine287]

Those guys are awesome. It seems they're really cool to hang out with.

[@trishcooning8086]

Dean reminds me of Rocky Balboa Because, Rocky didn't train in a really nice facility at first he wasn't in a decent Facility until later.

[@nikegurl100]

they are so badass

[@MikieCubsMan]

At 3:50 after roman answers the question he flexes his pecks lmao

[@ebonyfoster8732]

Dean looks so uninterested 😂😂

[@CrystalBoswell]

Oh yeah!! LOL Thank you :) there are so many members of that family!

[@Emilaiho]

these three guys are really good at the end...lol XD

[@sanyhardy]

thank you finally someone say it out loud.

[@andyfknnenemalo6722]

Beleive in the Shield!

[@RiC_David]

With Daniel Bryan, Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Antonio Cesaro, Sami Zayn, Bray Wyatt, The Usos, AJ Lee, Paige...am I forgetting anybody there? All of those are current talents who look set to define the new era and there will of course be more coming along all the time - I think WWE's in great shape. There aren't many big time stars right now but Punk (who I ommitted because it's believed he'll retire young) and Bryan weren't big a couple of years ago and now they are.

[@anasshahid224]

Good times, The Shield were amazing 👏👏👏👏

[@DomDomTheFirst]

Dean Ambroses thoughts on the new centre were impressive!

[@honeyroman8593]

love you roman reings

[@LIVIA1797]

He's not a douche my brothers had the pleasure of meeting him they said he's very mellow , he's chill and he's a nice dude .

[@Ahrieane]

Dean I looove you! !!

[@jonalimachahary9674]

Anyone in 2019??? I love u ROMAN u r so cute n ur my ROMEO💋😹😘😍😍i love u so much

[@SacredNileCandles]

I love Dean in all his awkwardness :P

[@klainmainonline1569]

Two of the best and future top faces.The Shield is the best thing happening since Evolution days.

[@Rainbowgerl3]

Love them

[@b.m.t.g.s.3339]

Really miss you SHIELD 😔😔

[@mamadoualioudiallo2793]

He the true friends i love you

[@Mcdonald-ly9jn]

Where have you all been these two totally boyfriend's I love it

[@oneme63]

They need to hire guys like Buddy Landell, Jim Cornette, Jake Roberts, etc to teach the new guys how to promo because nowadays there are some guys with sick abilities and phenomenal athleticism but they get lost or don't get called up to the main because they have no mic skills. And if they want everyone to be on the mic then they should get the best guys on the mic to train these people how to be believable.

[@CrystalBoswell]

I know, right?! When Roman first came onto the FCW/NXT scene, I told my mom that he looked like a superstar whom I've seen before (then I realized that he's Rosey's brother); it turns out that he and Rosey are a part of the powerful Anoa'i wrestling dynasty. Their father is Sika of the WWE Hall of Fame tag team, The Wild Samoans. They are also the cousins of Rikishi, Umaga, The Usos, Yokozuna, and The Rock (well, extended family with Rock). So many great wrestlers came from that family :)

[@Xeryoc]

Tell that to every WWE star/alumni that praises them.

[@SlashingThunder]

Yay you mentioned Kaitlyn!

[@jessicalp2756]

Dean Ambrose is PERFECT

[@NYCasper420]

Ambrose is still in character a little that's why he just looks around and won't look people in the eye.

[@RTR9]

These guys are so tight

[@JamalBernardPulliam]

The Shield aka The Phantom Zone of the WWE:)

[@dutchmantel7224]

Ambrose will be the man in WWE, if they let him shine. With Reigns at his side will be hard to stand out, but both future World title holders.

[@purcss]

He's actually impressed lol.

[@sadamostafh8436]

😜☺😜😳😳😳😳

[@ashschilly]

so much questions

[@chriscullen]

How qualified do you have to be to enroll in the performance center?

[@SithLordMoxley]

Ambrose and Rollins are both matched in skill.

[@paulineaborkor1019]

Omg Romans chest...love it:)

[@johnbobson248]

Ambrose is a great wrestler.

[@nygblue24]

Ambrose is such a badass

[@Gabriel8415]

@ 4:10 Ambrose looks like hes about to maul the interview guy

[@13urrito]

Dean's the man.

[@deadliestchic8768]

Roman is so delicious!!! 💕💕💕💕

[@aklo5506]

am I the only one who noticed Roman Reigns looking at Dean like "wtf are you doing?" when he was fiddling with his glasses? lol

[@HasnainKhan-co6bt]

After watching this video. Now i can say i was right at that time. Because I said at that moment. " One day these 3 guys of the shield will run wrestling"

[@nerdplanet98]

Dean is such an awkward person it's actually really cute

[@jamalperry4927]

wish the houndes of Justice were together like team mates!

[@mossplum9897]

I WISH i could go there

[@farsaber]

That was the original intent but Roman and Seth said they'd be the tag champions as they work better together and can do good combination moves

[@217medusa]

I feel like I relate to Dean.

[@kissy3211]

There's Dean who just looks uncomfortable as hell then there is Roman, sounding he's about to make a run for senate lol. I love when RR puts his professional voice on.

[@MrFX313]

Some people just naturally fidget. I do the same thing. It's hard to stay in one place for too long, and some people talk better when they shift focus partially.

[@qshawn3]

ROMAN REIGNS IS MY IDOL I LOOK UP TO HIM

[@mooseknuckle2191]

Reigns just called him Dean, they actually refer to each other by their ring names?

[@jameslane9267]

lmfao! that guy turned beet red after he asked Reigns if he was "jealous" of the performance center. Dude was like "Damn I've said too much, im dead now"

[@ShaneiceEllis7]

Where is this place I want to be a wwe diva

[@PainTheBruiser]

The pg era has evolved, it's no longer just the Pg era it's a cut between The ruthless aggression AKA the post attitude era era and the pg era. Ladies and gentlemen i give to you the pg aggression era. Enjoy.

[@Sweet_butterfly_kisses]

I love how everybody disses on these guys! lets put you in their spots and lets see you all fail.. I bet any of you u disses these guys could not even do one move that they do!

[@ryantewhata11]

Whos that guy interviewing them talk 2 them like that gess respect mate

[@RiC_David]

We meet again, Mr. Jones. I think perhaps some people stopped watching the WWE a year or so ago and aren't aware of the 'youth movement' they're in the midst of right now.

[@RiC_David]

Agreed.

[@angryfoodie]

Notice posture. Ambrose was recruited because he was 6'4. Reigns is standing straight up, whereas Ambrose is hunched over a bit. Plus, Ambrose is standing behind Reigns in the shot, which distorts the view. Ambrose is definitely as tall as Reigns, standing up straight.

[@SFSEAS]

Drinking game: Take a sip everytime Dean says "impressive"

[@ChocolateThunderBear]

The funny thing is he's really like that. He was wrestling before The Dark Knight was made and I swear that character was based on him. Look up some Jon Moxley (His other wrestling name) vids on You Tube and you'll see what I'm talking about...

[@MikaTheSin]

ambrose look at the dude men, the hell xD

[@genosynca]

No I said all members of the SHIELD wear the same thick soled boots. In this video the footwear cannot be seen therefore it is merely a possibility that either Dean or Roman are wearing sneakers.

[@DarkSplodge]

They sleep harder than anyone else? xD

[@jonas210034]

3:52 pec pop of reigns

[@Topdreamer44]

the progression era

[@emmyram8837]

Masterpiece baby ❤

[@JoBo6772]

Comparison to past WWE Stars IMO Seth Rollins = Jeff Hardy Roman Reigns = Batista Dean Ambrose= Piper/Terry Funk-esque

[@angryfoodie]

Like I have said, the video is shot at an angle which made it look like that. Go look at videos shot square, it is clear that Ambrose is as tall (or taller) than Reigns. Even looking at their shoulders side by side, it is clear that they are pretty much the same height. But because Reigns is standing in the foreground and Ambrose in the background, he looks taller. One of the oldest optical illusions in all of photography.

[@KayKay4419]

Did anybody else catch Roman's chest moving at 3:51?

[@bb44008]

Oh jeez I just looked, wowee

[@Ty17V]

Guys, guys, chill~ I think we all can agree that Roman Reigns is the game-changer of this group. Believe in The Spear.

[@dandykaufman2]

Ambrose is both the best talker and the best wrestler. RR is the muscle. Seth Rollins is awesome when he falls through a ladder and dies other ways.

[@JoBo6772]

OK that's your opinion, But I meant with his delivery of his promos is GREAT much like the guys that I mentioned

[@DoUEvenLiftBro]

Ambrose is also a great wrestler and Seth Rollins can really sell moves

[@dirtysouthlepluv]

I totally agree! I definitely don't think Dean is 6'4". He definitely looks over 6' but you can clearly see here than he's shorter than Roman (who's billed shorter than him).

[@Rein9250dt]

#BelieveintheShield!

[@dirtysouthlepluv]

I've always wondered about that too. I really can't figure out the answer. Maybe he's just more comfortable in character (and in front of a camera on tv) than he is having to be his "real" self in an interview. *shrug*
