I like it. I just want to see Ziggler stand on his own and show us what he really has as far as mic skills go. I have confidence he can be great but up until now he's been carried by Vickie and not allowed the opportunity to express himself.

 

[hello (:]

I'm thinking this may be the reason for them doing it... I don't see any other logically stand point... but then again it's the WWE they don't need to be logical...

 

[The BoogeyMan]

Oh definitely. He was calling himself the uncrowned/future champion for weeks.

Of course, people will always find something to bitch and complain about how his reign sucks and its a poor gimmick, but The IWC doesn't understand that them bitching on a forum is the same as drawing heat in an arena. I hope, if it happens, it goes well.

I for one hope WWE do not recognise him as a world champion. He's had to work so hard to lose the whole Spirit Squad shit and he's become a legit threat to the title in the past month or two. For WWE to start saying how he's a former champion for 10 minutes would just belittle his career again.

 

[P.Smith]

That would probably just turn him into somewhat of a comedy character tbh, kinda like how Zack Ryder kept saying he is a former number 1 contender but it was a complete joke. I really don't think that Ziggler's 10 minute title reign will have a positive impact on his career.

It's on the WWE Title History Page of WWE.com
Sorry to say, it's Legit

I think that is a tremendous risk and could put Ziggler into RAW Midcard comedy hell. RAW is stacked and doesn't give a damn for the mid card. Anything less than working a monster feud with Daniel Bryan is a big step down from where he was on Smackdown.

 

[roughtimes]

Ziggler is becoming one of the strongest in ring workers the WWE has. Every week he seems to get better. The WWE knows what they have and he will be pushed. It may take a while but it will happen.

The problem is that everyone in the IWC goes ape shit if someone is put on the back burner even for a few months.

 

[nukeinyourhair]

Yeah, I can see the other side of the argument. RAW midcard hell would be very dangerous. I was reading a little bit about Mr. Nemeth though and I guess he was a pretty prolific amateur wrestler at Kent State, and we all know Vince likes it when wrestlers have those backgrounds. I'm thinking if they start him off with a monster feud against Cena or Orton he'll avoid the midcard.

 

[SarcasmoBlaster]

Even though I completely disagree with putting the title on Dolph in that manner in the first place, the angle you described is probably the best case scenario coming out of it.

 

[Revil Fox]

Man, he sure is selling the hell out of this firing on his Twitter account. I guess he only knows one way to sell things.

I'd love to have him come back as "The Natural" Nick Nemeth and start a real feud with DBD. They had a few great matches last year, and an extended program with an actual storyline could get both guys over huge.
