If WWE ever wonders why Dolph Ziggler, a one time cant miss top star, has never reached main event heights, then they only need to only look at Mondays Raw for one of the reasons why. During an ad for Total Divas, they showed Dolph (or since its a reality show, Nick Nemeth?) hitting on Nikki Bella (or Nicole Garcia-Colace?). This is despite the fact that shes in a relationship with the top babyface in the company. Oh, but just not on Raw and SmackDown. Its only hinted at there by women trying to passive aggressively take digs at each other. Not only does this make him not look anything like a face, it makes him look like a jerk. One that we should not be cheering for. This was not an ad saved for E!, it was right on Raw, showing them all out of character, making it unnecessarily confusing on who to cheer and boo. Not long ago, he fell in love with Lana and they read books together. Then she hurt her wrist, and that must have been a turn-off for him. So, he appeared to try and pick up Summer Rae. That story was dropped, because sometimes Vince can be merciful. But now, he's trying to date Nikki. Well, if Dolph is going to hit on a woman in a committed relationship, couldnt he have tried while a camera wasnt on both of them?
As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at."
Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week.
