Dean Ambrose wasn’t disqualified after all, but the stipulation he would lose the belt by being DQ’d still weighed heavily on the Intercontinental Championship match.
The Miz tried to get the champ disqualified by having Maryse slap him. The ref didn’t bite, kicking Maryse out of the match. But when Maryse returned ringside to argue with the ref, Miz threw Ambrose into the ref.
As Ambrose pleaded with the ref, The Miz ambushed him to become seven-time IC champ. Check the Extreme Rules results story for the full match recap.
