8 WWE Night Of Champions Opening Matches - From Worst To Best
8. Dolph Ziggler Vs. Kofi Kingston - 2010
I think there might be some personal prejudice seeping in here. Many people often joke about Kofi Kingston and Dolph Ziggler squaring off against each other so many times that the entire thing has become duller than the proverbial ditchwater, but it really is true.
After doing so at SummerSlam the previous month, the two would contest the Intercontinental Championship match once again in 2010. There was a catch this time, however, as if Dolph was disqualified or counted-out the title would change hands, a rule that came about due to Vickie Guerrero's excessive interfering.
The added ruling had the potential to bring something new to the rivalry, but what we got was the most boring WWE-style match imaginable. At one point, I counted three chinlock spots in what seemed like three minutes. Guys with the ability that Dolph and Kofi possess really shouldn't be wasting time with such segments.
I'm all for working slow, but come on guys, really? Dolph retained after hitting the zig-zag, and everyone forgot what happened pretty quickly.
