How mad do you think it makes dolph that they started hiring the good wrestlers instead of a million Jinder Mahal types. Like you go from trying to steal the show from Chris Masters to trying to steal it from AJ Styles. It's really not fair to him, in a way.

I hope it makes him really mad because Dolph is a legitimately terrible person, and is also the polar opposite of funny. There's also the fact that his matches have been pretty mediocre as of late, along with his mic work.

Dolph Ziggler debuted (as Dolph Ziggler, that is) in September of 2008. When did he become "surplus to requirements". Certainly when Bryan debuted in 2010, but was it before? Has WWE ever needed a Dolph Ziggler?

How the forum opinion has completely flipped on Dolph over the last 2-3 years will never not be amazing.

They had a hope they were making a new star. This was incorrect. Seriously, the concussion storyline and being quickly jobbed out to Del Rio of all people, then moved swiftly back down to midcard after he returned from injury is a good way to make people no longer care about him, and make Dolph more bitter.

Honestly I'm not even sure why people like Team Rocket that much. AJ and Big E were super likeable, but as a unit they didn't even really combine well.

Remember that time Dolph was the last man standing in a Survivor Series match, coming back from a 3 on 1 situation, and won with a little help from Sting at the end? Then the next night he came out and gave all the credit to Sting and everyone barely acknowledged that he was the sole survivor.

They built it up as a big moment kinda......except didn't follow through with booking, and put all the focus on the fact that Cena could reinstate the Authority any time he wanted to.

They made it incredibly obvious immediately that the stip was going to be reversed, so Dolph's big win meant a lot less.

Being honest that was a pretty good Joker laugh by Rowan at the end.

Finally got around to watching SmackDown and yes, AJ/Jinder was as sloppy as advertised because Jinder's moveset comes from 1985 and he loving telegraphs everything.

I guarantee you KO/AJ is going on last because Randy has no hope of making Jinder look even decent.

So is Rowan's gimmick basically Leatherface in that different masks have different personalities? I can dig it. Kind of wild that Tom Savini designed one of his masks.
