After the match of the night had taken place between Dolph Ziggler and The Miz, WWE decided to air that LSD trip of an advert where a Miz-shaped chicken is defeated by a Colonel Sanders-shaped Showoff.

I mean, talk about decreasing the value of a couple of guys' work. Ziggler and Miz put on everything an Intercontinental Championship match should be. It was long, had great, technical action, it was emotionally charged and even had a classic screwy finish...

All of that was undone by a simply horrible 'comedic' advert rearing its ugly head once again. Talk about product placement, this product ad needs placed in the closest bin.

What were they thinking? These two deserve better.
