10 Things WWE Still Needs To Do Before Summerslam

7. Explore The History Of Ziggler Vs. Miz Because It's a Good Story

There are a lot of reasons why The Miz defending the IC Title against Dolph Ziggler can be a great match that steals the show, but in order for that to happen WWE needs to give them some time. That means more than a two minute win for Ziggler at Raw and a brief staredown after the match. We need to know why they hate each other, why Ziggler wants to beat him so bad and why Miz feels the need to prove himself again. Their history goes back to the Cleveland area where they were born in the same year and in the same area. Both were signed to WWE deals in the mid 2000s. They came up through Ohio Valley Wrestling like so many others. They went through a lot of gimmick changes, but when they figured out they became stars. This is stuff that Ziggler actually touched on in during the weekly WWE.com interview although the number of people that will watch that is much smaller than the number of people that watch Raw around the world. Even if they played two minutes of that interview it would be a more effective use of time than whatever crap WWE does with Fandango, Sandow and Rose from week to week. If Ziggler commented like that in a face to face setting with Miz in the ring it would be even better. It's a feud that can be great and restore some credibility to the IC Title. Just give them a chance. Please.
