As great as it has been to see Dolph Ziggler holding championship gold around his waist, it's hard to see him keeping it past 'Mania weekend. And once that belt goes, so does Ziggler's latest day in the sun.

Honestly, if you were to draw a line graph of Ziggler's career then chances are it would look like an erratic heart monitor - a series of dramatic peaks and dips, with no discernible pattern. Despite being a former World Champion, Ziggler has never had the full weight of the company machine behind him, and his booking reflects that.

Dolph's career highlights tend to be followed by months in the wilderness, to the extent that it was a genuine shock when he won the NXT Championship because he had been booked as a glorified jobber for so long!

While it's nice to see Ziggler get the recognition he deserves, history shows that once Dolph's run as NXT Champion is done then the Show Off will be back to staring at the lights for the foreseeable future.
