The current belief within WWE is that if things go as planned with the filming of the WWE Studios film “Lockdown,” that Dean Ambrose will make his return doing a run-in either at the Night Of Champions pay-per-view on September 21st or on RAW the next night.
We have been reporting for weeks that there was a strong possibility that Ambrose could appear at the Night Of Champions show and now it seems that WWE is actually planning for that, or as noted, for him to return the next night on RAW.
