Dolph Ziggler

No Monday Night RAW desta semana, Dolph Ziggler fez uso da sua mala do Money in the Bank para conquistar o World Heavyweight Championship. Muitos fãs se questionaram se essa conquista tinha sido resultado da confusão eu houve em escrever o script após a ausência de The Rock do show....

Segundo o PWInsider, a mudança de campeão não foi uma decisão de última hora e já vinha a ser planeada há várias semanas. A razão para Ziggler ter perdido vários combates antes da WrestleMania é porque a WWE queria que ele parece-se um “campeão vulnerável”.

Quanto ao antigo contender JACK Swagger, havia planos para ele conquistar o título Mutual e o facto de ele ter sido detido e estar a contas com uns processos em tribunal por DUI, puserem esses planos de parte.

O World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler deu uma entrevista ao The Rise Guys. Eis os highlights:....

Does he hate John Cena? "Yep. Question number two."

If most male wrestling fans over the age of 16 hate Cena:"It depends. What he represents for our company is awesome. He is our franchise guy. He's the go to guy. He's never not delivered with something. He connects with the crowd. He's a great guy to have as the face of the company, for now. Until I'm ready. So for right now, baby steps made. New World Champion. I got my lovely lady next to me, AJ. And we also have Big E and I think over the next couple weeks and months we're going to make some great strides. I think it's going to be a show, Monday's and Friday's are going to be about us because we're starting to draw attention."

The Rock's part time status: "The Rock is not just a huge movie star, he's one of the biggest stars in the entire world. If you don't think that it's a smart business move to have one of the hugest stars in the entire world going head to head with our biggest franchise player on the main event of our biggest show of the year, that's just dumb. It's going to come out, it's great business. It's great to have him back, but it also really makes me angry. Angrier than you can even imagine because I want to be in that spot. I want a full time guy to be there every single night doing what we do best, giving back to our fans. Live events, pay per views, Monday Night RAW, Friday Night Smackdown, name it and we do it every single night. But it's a special attraction to have guys like that back and it's just good business."

If he was a Ric Flair guy growing up: "Absolutely. At a very young age my uncle showed me Beta tapes of Ric Flair and when you were supposed to you know, eat ice cream bars with Hulk Hogan and look up to that guy, and I had the sand weights that leaked [laughter]. And he was like okay cool, this is the guy [Hogan] and at a very young age I go wow, no Flair is the guy. This guy looks cool. He's like a James Bond guy in a suit, girls around him, goes out there, has the best match. Right back onto the helicopter, gets out of there with the Horsemen and those go out to party all night and probably not sleep."

O World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler sofreu uma concussão durante as gravações do SmackDown na última terça quando ele interferiu no combate de Big E Langston contra Jack Swagger. As informações são do WWE.com.....

De acordo com o médico da WWE, doutor Michael Sampson, Ziggler lesionou-se após receber um golpe na face. Um exame após o combate confirmou a lesão.

“Ele estava a ter algumas dificuldades de memorização e um pouco de dor de cabeça, definitivamente foi uma concussão.” – Afirmou Sampson. “Nós estamos a avaliar e iremos fazer alguns testes neuropsicológicos e vamos manter ele monitorado.”

A concussão ainda não foi clinicamente confirmada, já que os resultados dos exames apenas sairão nos próximos dias. Ziggler irá ser submetido a um teste de impacto e a regra da WWE é que lutadores que sofrem concussões são retirados de todos os shows.

According to a source, there was talk earlier today about seeing if Vince McMahon wanted to pursue other options without Dolph Ziggler as World Heavyweight Champion after Ziggler suffered a legitimate concussion at last night's SmackDown taping. Vince felt that it would be premature to go down that road today, and there are no plans to alter current storylines based on Ziggler's concussion.

F4WOnline.com reported this evening that Ziggler has been removed from all in-ring bookings until he has passed an imPACT test indicating that he is healthy enough to perform.

Em entrevista ao WWE.com, Dolph Ziggler falou da concussão sofrida esta semana e onde foi diagnosticado com amnésia. Dolph disse:

"I didn’t even remember Monday until I watched Raw when I got home,” the champion revealed, in reference to the injury, which he sustained when he interfered in a match between Jack Swagger and Big E Langston. “I don’t even remember traveling from Raw to SmackDown. I don’t remember Tuesday. I remember AJ and Big E taking me to the airport on Wednesday morning."

"I was told I interfered in a match and tried to get my hands on a ladder," said Ziggler, piecing together the timeline. "When I bent over to grab it, Jack Swagger kicked me in the head.”

"I feel a lot better today," The Showoff told WWE.com of his recovery process. "Yesterday I had a bad headache. Today, I have a slight headache."
