Paglino: As great as it is to see Dolph Ziggler getting some much deserved direction from the creative team, I see him more as a placeholder contender at this point and still don’t believe WWE is completely behind him.
The Miz just returned with a new “money maker” gimmick, won the title, and has built some fresh momentum, so I don’t see WWE halting him with a title change at SummerSlam. My pick in this match is The Miz.
As for Rusev vs Swagger, it’s starting to feel like the right time for Rusev to lose a match cleanly, but I think it’s for the wrong reasons. The fans are more into chanting USA and rooting for ‘Merica than they are into the idea of Rusev losing.
Rusev barely gets any heat when Lana is not trashing The United States, and my fear is as soon as he loses a match the sounds of crickets will reign. I’m predicting Swagger will win the match, but more importantly Rusev has to figure out how to generate some genuine, non-America bashing heat.
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
