As far as ziggler is concerned he has been really impressive in the last 1 year. But I think the longer they wait to put the strap on him the better it will be for him… People like austin, rock, hhh and even cena spent their share of time in the mid card before becoming world champions. It gives the feeling that it was a hard earned title which in return shows that the world title has some importance. With ziggler they have a chance to do that. Moreover the longer they wait, the more people would wanna see him become the champion. This is one guy who has kicked the doors open to the main event scene by putting people over, something we haven’t seen for years!!!

i feel that the constant triple threat/fatal fourways in the attitude era was a good way to establish many main eventers quickly…which is something wwe needs right now

I totally agree with all your points. Unfortunately the WWE is always gonna revolve around John Cena and Randy Orton.

Dude your missing the point. We're not exactly being blessed with main eventers like Hulk Hogan, Brett Hart and Steve Austin these days. The guys who are main eventing now are nothing more than glorified mid-carders. The ratings were the highest since April 9…well whooptie frikkin' doo! They went from 1.93 to a whopping 2.02. What ever happened to the days when the ratings were between 4.0 and 5.0. But then again what do I know.

I think that this whole Rhodes protesting thing will get him in it to win the whole fudgin' thing…

I really hope you’re wrong on the Ziggler front, but sadly my confidence in WWE creative and vince is not high and i fear the same as you.
Except for the pushes of punk and Bryan WWE has pretty much failed to push its higher talented mid carders to the next level – either giving them no oppuetunity or bad booking. Sadly we are still getting these over grown muscle bound can hardly move wrestlers (ryback, ortunga, tensia) forced feed to us instead of ultislising talent like Ziggler & Rhodes.
It won’t be long before cena is back as champ, orton returns and the great 6 months we’ve had of punk and Bryan comes to an end and we slip back into regular WWE programming.

JBreed, SmackDown ratings are up with Sheamus as World Heavyweight Champion. All three superstars you just mentioned were in the main event last week and SmackDown had the highest ratings since April 9…know your stuff.

The good thing about the show was at least all the matches served a purpose. The bad thing was most of the matchups would be more suitable for Superstars. There is a serious need of stars in the mid-card division. And the main event scene isn't in much better shape. Champion Sheamus has very little or no star power. ADR isn't exactly number 1 contender material. And Dolph Ziggler, as much as most of us are excited to see him in the main event, was nothing but a jobber a month ago and when this main event run is over he'll probably go back to being irrelevant again.

There was a definite laugh track inserted after Sheamus' joke, I noticed that as well.
I must say that Sandow is disappointing me in the ring – other than the Elbow of disdain (gimme a while, I'll learn the Latin name for it) and recently the finisher, he's rather underwhelming in the ring. I did like that he covered Ryder normally and not tauntingly, because he realised Ryder almost had him.
I am really glad about Kidd's push, he's one of the most underrated workers in the company.
Can't wait to see your Rundown!

Glad to see Sandow and Kidd get good matches they are both very good in the ring and deserve good pushes.
