Zigglers current show off gimmick is doing him no favours it just pretty much labels him a bumping machine .
Because the writing sucks. WWE refuses to let midcarders--much less undercarders--shine as fully formed characters. For some reason they think it's better to let everyone simply rot on the vine while they keep pushing the individuals they want to push, and consequently very few people can get over because there's nobody over to get over from beating and the cycle just repeats itself in an ostensibly perpetual fashion. The midcard as it stands is almost nonexistent. Cody Rhodes was their best-protected and most highly-sustained midcard prospect and in the last couple of months they've done one thing after another to diminish him. It's just how they roll now and it's shitty. It's why we have a roster of John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton and Sheamus and recently the returning Chris Jericho and Daniel Bryan and The Big Show and Alberto Del Rio and a bunch of jobbers/new kids/enhancement talents/treadmill victims.It has nothing to do with the gimmick, he doesn't even get the chance to flaunt the show off gimmick, I just don't get how they think they are going anywhere with this. CM Punk Daniel Bryan and Sheamus are arguably the only other people that are over and two of them they did on there own, Sheamus is the only other one they are giving a legit push to that's new, the rest of them job, and even the ones that are on a streak like ryback and Brodus only beat other jobbers, why are there so many jobbers in the wwe when there shouldn't be?
It's frustrating, I remember making a post not to long ago saying the midcard was stronger then ever like three months back, but they have ruined a lot of the people, they don't get time to have a match let alone a feud, and they keep introducing more and more people, it's just flooded now, and while a lot of people coming in now are good, they won't have the time to even show it, which baffles me because triple h said that he wouldn't let people come up to the main shows without a plan, when half the people on the shows don't have a plan. I guess what I'm getting at is, we need more than just people wrestling for the sake of wrestling, they need to try harder. It's the show not the wrestlers. Triple H is doing an awful job if he's taking roster development, they focus more on finding the next big thing then making the best show they can, no one guy is gonna make this interesting again.Because the writing sucks.

I miss the damn eagle, yes it was stupid, but it was different, it was interesting, it's better than oh it's that guy with the same stupid haircut as laurinaitisThis is how I feel. Whenever they're on screen, I find myself fast forwarding because I know nothing interesting is going to happen. It's not their fault. Ziggler could be a solid main eventer, but WWE ruined Swagger too much. I don't think theres any hope for him now.
And I want to see the Mason Ryan/Ziggler partnership. Drop Vickie. Bring the Eagle back and get some individuality!
That's because its all he's used for. Ziggler has been relegated to such a weak role. Then again all the midcarders are in the same boat.Zigglers current show off gimmick is doing him no favours it just pretty much labels him a bumping machine .
