You don't produce the sort of noise that went down on the Raw after WrestleMania 29 following a sudden cash-in if the people in attendance don't want to see you succeed. And you're not given that opportunity in the first place if the likes of Vince and his yes men aren't in your corner, either.

However, following that iconic seizing of the World Heavyweight Championship from Alberto Del Rio, the apparent heir to Shawn Michaels' throne Dolph Ziggler wasn't quite able to take that next step up into superstardom. It's worth remembering that Ziggler was the victim of an unfortunately timed concussion early into this second run with the big gold belt, meaning that his first defence of the title came a whopping 69 days after winning the title. He'd eventually lose that match to Del Rio, and seemingly the trust of the WWE Chairman in the process.

With Dolph still yet to win a big one ever since banging his head in 2013, any chances of McMahon having a change of heart before his career is up look slim at best. But stranger things have happened.
