9. Dolph Ziggler Does Tyler Breeze A Favour
Nowadays, fans realise when WWE are serious about a performer's prospects behind the scenes. Now more than ever, there's an emphasis on trying to force the hands of management. People love the idea of telling WWE which wrestlers to push, and which ones to stop pushing. Tyler Breeze is someone both company and fan base agree has a bright future. Victories in the grappling world can be a strange beast indeed. Often, even in defeat, if a performance is deemed strong enough from the loser they can still come out shining. On other occasions, wins are treated with importance. Survivor Series was one of those times for Breeze, who beat Dolph Ziggler for his first major WWE Pay-Per-View triumph. The match was competitive, both men have a similar style. Ziggler and Breeze blend well together, and could possibly even work as a tag-team later down the road. For now, it was cool of Dolph to put Tyler over in super-clean fashion. Straight away, this establishes the newcomer as a force to be reckoned with. The Survivor Series win felt like a big moment for Breeze.
