5. Rubbing It In

Not delivering on a promised stipulation? In a professional wrestling match? Perish the thought. From the moment the €œKiss Me Arse€ stip was announced for the Dolph Ziggler versus Sheamus match, you knew that this was going to end with some form of hijinks that was going to detract from the match itself. And that is exactly what happened. Sheamus and Ziggler had a pretty decent little match going, fast-paced with hard-hitting moves. Sheamus continued to show that he€™s made for this role as a brawling bully, delivering some choice trashtalk during the bout. The end came a little out of nowhere, but it was the kind of victory for Ziggler that allowed for a rematch in the near future. If that was it, then it would€™ve been a decent TV-quality match. Instead, we got the entire sideshow of €œwho will kiss whose arse?€ throughout the entire match. The announcers incessantly talked about it and made kissing noises, and then Sheamus reneged on the stip, knocked Ziggler out and rubbed Dolph€™s face on his ass.A grown man lost a match and then rubbed another man€™s face on his ass. Sure, there€™s plenty of weird things that happen in professional wrestling, but this is a tough stipulation to justify.
