I think that was probably the highlight of Smackdown for me, Ziggler has a knack of doing nothing for a long time then stepping into the limelight and making me care. last week I thought smackdown was really weak and their booking of Ziggler winning the 6 pack challenge was dreadful but after that 1 promo its got me hooked. I do smell a heel turn on the horizon though, and it could be from either man. Dean sounded quite heelish during the promo, i have to keep reminding myslef hes kind of a tweener, but I think they could book Dolph to loose then attack Ambrose after the match out of frustration.

I hope this lead to a Ziggler heel turn
Calls out fans says they never believed in him takes the title from Ambrose (even though I still like Ambrose as champion) I believe it's Dolphs time and with Ambrose being a fan favorite this is the perfect time for a heel turn and Dean vs Ziggler will make a great rivalry

I thought the promo was well done until that last part. Where does Ziggler go? Nowhere... The same place he always heads to. The last time they had an opportunity to get him back to the top was during survivor series when he beat Seth (at least when I thought he was last relevant).

Thought both guys were great. Thought the segment was really amazing, honestly. Ambrose being a dick was a red herring to the fact that it's Ziggler that's going to turn heel imo.
I think if Ziggler turns heel he's winning the title. Lots of people here seem to be of the opinion that it can't happen but this is Ziggler's story they're telling right now. Seems to me he could fail at SummerSlam and then turn heel and turn right around and win at Backlash. He might turn heel next week, which would be awesome. I guess we'll see. The entire last two weeks have been about Ziggler, and having him finally kick down the door. I look for that story to continue and be the focal point of the Blue Brand.

Made me know the fued between these two will be miles better than Rollins/Balor. Not impressed with Balor so far, and at fear of sounding like vince Russo I will leave that there but Ambrose and Zig have done some awesome stuff so far.

Well, I haven't really been following the product lately but I watched that clip. I know I've seen Ziggler cut that same promo at least 5 or 6 times it seems. It was nice to see Ambrose pretty much tell him to ram it.
Also, are we supposed to forget Dolph is a former world champion?

Ziggler seems to be putting in a lot more effort, so I am for him getting a push.

Dean Ambrose was freaking A+++ on SmackDown, that promo was just simply amazing! Ziggler's promo was ok but the screaming at the end killed it he just seemed like a spoiled brat who can't get his way. I agree. I have always thought that when Ziggler gets intense and starts to scream, his voice gets a little too high and whiny for it to be convincing. It's the same effect I get when hearing Mike Tyson or Brock Lesnar speak. They are both absolute badasses but their voices just don't fit the image. |

Dean's "you're not as good as you think you are" line was one of the truest statements ever uttered on WWE television.

I'm hoping Ziggler will snap & finally turn heel.

IMO Dolph/Dean/AJ/Cena all delivered awesome promos on Smackdown. Completely agree! Unlike Balor on Raw which I thought was awful, although Seth was good! |

It was an outstanding promo. Ambrose is far and away the best in the business on the mic, and I'm glad they actually let Ziggler talk and be serious on TV for the first time in a while. I'll say this: Dolph obviously isn't great on the mic, but the few instances when they've let him shoot from the hip and talk about real things, he's been really good. Both guys showed great emotion, which is a rarity in this day and age. That promo alone made me completely change my mind on the match; I now think Ziggler has a real shot at winning, whereas at first this felt like a throwaway match just to get Ambrose an easy title defense on the PPV. Both guys should be able to put on a fantastic match at SummerSlam.

Ambrose dropped an absolute truth bomb on Ziggler. It was perfect.

That was the first time, maybe ever that Dolph has delivered a good promo. It felt real, and everything he said was true. If THAT was the Dolph that could be on TV every week, then they'd have a major star on their hands.
