Isenberg Reacts: WWE Raw “Change Dolph Ziggler NOW”

October 13, 2015

Is Dolph Ziggler and John Cena The Right Call?

Dolph Ziggler answered the US Championship Open on Raw. “After a commercial break Ziggler has a sleeper hold on Cena. Cena fight out, but eats a neck breaker for a two count. Ziggler hits eight straight elbow drops. Ziggler misses the ninth. Cena hits the Cena combo, but before the five knuckle shuffle Ziggler drop kicks Cena. Cena tries the AA, but Ziggler slides down Cena’s back for a sunset flip for another two count. Cena locks in the STF, but Ziggler slips out and puts on a sleeper hold. Cena gets to his feet with Ziggler on his back. Cena AA’s Ziggler, but Ziggler rolls out of the ring.

Cena goes to the outside puts Ziggler back in the ring. Cena tries to cover Ziggler but Ziggler kicks out right before the three count. Cena puts Ziggler on the top rope for a top rope AA, but Ziggler wiggles out. Ziggler runs up the ropes and DDT’s Cena off the middle rope. Cena somehow manages to kick out. Ziggler goes to the corner and tunes up the band for sweet chin music. Cena catches Ziggler’s foot and almost takes Ziggler’s head of with a lariat. Cena tries to AA Cena again, but Ziggler turns it into the fameasser! Ziggler only manages another two count.

Cena trips Ziggler into another STF. Ziggler slowly manages to get to the bottom rope to cause a break. Ziggler rolls to the apron. Cena grabs him and tries to suplex him. Ziggler knocks him off. Ziggler dives off the top but Cena catches him and puts him up for the AA. Ziggler rakes Cena’s face and then superkicks Cena for yet another close two count. Ziggler and Cena trade punches in the ring. Cena goes for another AA, but Ziggler hits a zigzag. Cena still kicks out. Ziggler runs at Cena, but ends up running right into an AA. Ziggler is done.”

This cannot tie in with Total Divas. It makes no sense for it to, especially since Dolph has basically been with multiple women since. It would be a desperate ploy for WWE to regain some of the television ratings back with E! I just really want to see Dolph Ziggler succeed and think he might with a slight change. Some of my favorite Ziggler stuff was when he was next to Vickie Guerrero feuding with Edge. The eye rake should be the beginning of his frustrations and turning heel. I know he will be cheered because of how good he is, but let him be the cocky and arrogant guy that brought him to be liked by the fans. I do think he should have won the title tonight.

What is the point of Cena dropping the title at Hell in a Cell if it will be overshadowed by two other matches? If WWE truly care about ratings, what better way than to have a big title change? All in all, WWE needs to change Dolph Ziggler’s character now. Let him free.
