5. Ziggler Jumps Kofi Again

We can have a whole argument about whether anyone is buying Dolph Ziggler and his latest rehabbed push. But at least WWE is giving it a go.

Ziggler returned last week to attack Kofi Kingston on SmackDown and claimed that he should have been the person to win the WWE Championship and receive the adulation from the fans. He jumped Kofi again on Monday, but was staved off by Xavier Woods in an extended brawl that ended with Kingston saving Woods, and then Dolph again claiming that he should be the champ.

This wasn’t that great of a segment by any stretch (as it dragged on and on and on), but it was at least something different, even if no one is really buying Dolph as dethroning Kofi at Super Showdown.
