We all know how good Dolph Ziggler is. The guy is one of the very best talents in the WWE and has been for several years now.

Ziggler is another talent who got his chance to shine over on Smackdown, and he's actually a two-time World Heavyweight Champion. There's no doubting the ability, charisma, persona and overall package of Dolph, but it's sadly hard to imagine the WWE giving him a World Championship if the company had been operating as one solitary brand.

The WWE has their guys who they see as true main event superstars, and unfortunately for Ziggler it appears the the powers that be see him a rung or two below those talents at this point.

It's been rumoured that Dolph's injury record is one of the reasons why the WWE won't give him a run as the company's top dog these days, but you have to think that if it wasn't for the brand split then he wouldn't have even had either of his two brief World Championship reigns in the first place.
