Congratulations Are In Order: Dolph Ziggler is YOUR New World Heavyweight Champion

[Coco]

Yes, something from Raw last night other than The Rock's return was headline worthy. Pay your respects to the new champ here!

 

[Uncle Sam]

And to think, I fast forwarded that part and had no idea about it until I read this thread.

 

[Coco]

There was an abundance of evil laughing. "Dolph Ziggler: Supervillain" sounds like the obvious next step in the evolution of our new champion.

Ziggler should be inserted into Edge vs. Del Rio. He's too good for MITB.

 

[justinsayne]

He should drop his last name and simply go by Dolph, it'd be much easier to take him serious as a threat to the WHC picture

 

[Nate DaMac]

He just doesn't do it for me.

Is there a precedent for A Dolph being a threat to the world?

I cannot think of one

 

[ABMorales787]

Shouldn't Vickie Guerrero be called Vickie Ziggler at this point?

2008 called. It wants its talking point back.

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

I tried to imagine Vickie's laugh was coming out of Dolph's mouth, was strange..

 

[JGlass]

He's not my World Heavyweight Champion.

I like Dolph Ziggler just as much as the next guy, but I don't want to see him win the belt from Edge this way. Has he ever beaten Edge by way of pinfall or submission, even dirtily?

You're treading on my toes.

 

[Nate DaMac]

You're treading on my toes.

I remember a thread where someone suggested that Dolph take on a Nazi persona. Was that you Sam?

Never heard that word before. And Teddy Long has yet to speak on the matter.

Firefox recognized it as a word, as does Google.

in a sordid manner; "as dirtily drunk as usual"

Ziggler should be inserted into Edge vs. Del Rio. He's too good for MITB.

I believe that's the current plan at this point, to have it be a triple threat match.

I suspect they might throw in a whole "Who is the REAL champion" bit to try and raise the stakes as well.

Definitely would prefer to see a triple threat match than just Edge vs. Del Rio and Ziggler getting stuck in MITB.

 

[Via Armbar]

A. Dolph Ziggler.

I like it.

 

[JGlass]

Something about a Triple Threat Main Event at Mania doesn't rub me the right way. I didn't like the triple threat between Cena, Orton, and Triple H at Wrestlemania 24, and those are three huge stars. Edge vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Del Rio has the chance to be a very well worked match, but I don't know if I see it being as pure and entertaining as a one on one between Edge and Del Rio.

That said, the idea of a "Whose the Real Champion" angle does intrigue me and that definitely will make an interesting feud. The question is, how does Del Rio standout when Edge and Dolph are in the spotlight?

Wrestlemania 20's triple threat would like a word with you.

 

[JGlass]

Wrestlemania 20's triple threat would like a word with you.

Hey now, I sing the praises of Wrestlemania XX's and Unbreakable 2005's Triple Threats all the time, but those are just two of many many many triple threats that wind up being underwhelming. Furthermore, two of the three men in that match are some of the best wrestlers to ever step in the ring, and Triple H ain't so bad neither. None of the men in this match are near the level of HBK or Benoit. It won't be as good as Unbreakable 05 either because none of those guys can pull off the spots AJ Styles and Daniels could, and I don't think they have the chemistry that those three had.

 

[CH David]

WrestleMania XX should have been Benoit vs. Triple H, one on one.

Ziggles is the new champ, not sure how I feel about this.

 

[Stickstar 16]

Mania tends to have a triple threat match for a major title, has been one at 3/5 wrestlemanias, and it'd do well as it gives both of them a chance to shine, but by triple threat it shields some weaknesses.
