Potential WWE Spoilers For Dolph Ziggler Tonight?
A new champion or a solemn farewell?
One of the most anticipated bouts at tonight's No Mercy Pay-Per-View will see The Miz put his Intercontinental Title on the line against Dolph Ziggler's career. Over the past couple of weeks, many rumors have swirled that this bout could spell Dolph's swan song, and now, WWE may have tipped its hand.
According to reports, DirecTV and many other cable providers have been advertising this Tuesday's Smackdown with a blurb reading, "From San Jose. A recap of No Mercy, including the three-way battle for world champion; and a look at Dolph Ziggler's exit from WWE." Though nothing is definite until it happens and plans historically are prone to change at the last minute, WWE's crafting of the solicitation makes it look like Dolph will indeed lose the match and be forced to retire.
Additionally, PWInsider is reporting that Mike Mondo and Ken Doane - former Spirit Squad members "Mikey" and "Kenny," respectively - are backstage at No Mercy. The pair were on last week's Smackdown, assaulting their former partner Dolph ("Nicky") before being fought off by "The Showoff." Given their presence, they're likely to factor into the match in some way.
No Mercy airs on the WWE Network tonight at 8:00 PM ET.
