Ambrose talks WWE departure:

Dean Ambrose has listed his reasons for quitting WWE...

• He says he did not leave WWE right after making his mind up to go, because he worried there would be ramifications for his wife, Renee Young.
• He also said WWE threatened to revoke royalty payments if he did not see out his deal.
• He recalled a promo Vince had written for him, and telling McMahon to hos face that it was stupid and would not do it, despite Vince saying it was ''Good sh!t''
• He cited his first day back after injury. Creative presented him with a script for the show, with his promo's written by Vince, with a note that Dean had to read it verbatim. He said the script was ''Hot steaming crap'' and he went to each member of the creative team to try to get around Vince's decree, to no success.
• He said his frustrations with the above caused him to blow up backstage, and asked during a heated row, why he was employed, and that they should hire actors if they wanted people to read scripts.
• He repeatedly said Vince was out of touch and too old and is killing WWE.
• He said he knew it was time to go when he was too tired and depressed to argue about a Vince written promo, and did it as was written, despite him hating it.
• He then revealed it was the promo where he mocked the real life cancer fight of Roman Reigns, that made his mind up for him.
