Seriously, this is so dumb. Why can't they find ANYTHING else to book...

I know this has happened a lot, I myself can barely remember any of their previous work together (probably because it was lacklustre and poorly booked).
I don't mind seeing it if creative puts actual effort into the feud.

Damn. It took you a week to get mad about it.

The WWE basically has no idea what to do with Ziggler anymore and are simply trying to find any way possible to fit him on the card. I wouldn't mind seeing Ziggler win, though, since anybody would be an upgrade over The Miz at this point.

This match is a classic, though.

We went from Savage/Steamboat to Miz/Ziggler. Quite the drop indeed...

I know you don't watch the current product so you're probably basing it off when he was Smackdown host or a Tough Enough contestant, but The Miz has been truly awesome this year. Especially since winning the belt and bringing Maryse back. He's one of the few true heels in wrestling and it's going to be great fun when a worthy contender finally defeats him. Ziggler is not that worthy contender. But hell, I don't know who is at this point. I would have said Nakamura should be the guy to claim the IC from Miz, but at this point, Nakamura should go right into the top mix on Raw when he debuts, not the Smackdown midcard.

Dolph Ziggler is one of my least favorite wrestlers in the roster. I don't like his gimmick (he's been trying the "babyface 1993 Shawn Michaels" aesthetic for five years now) and I find his awkward quasi-shoot elements of his promos to be very jarring and unnatural for a guy as insignificant as he is. To me he's got "steady mid-late heel for life" written all over him, but they haven't used him for that in quite a while.
The Miz, on the other hand, is definitely my favorite all-around performer/gimmick on either show right now. He's been playing the "red carpet blowhard Hollywood wannabe" gimmick to a T for the last couple of years and has turned the douche factor up to 11 this year in particular. I can't decide if I want him to break HTM's record (with like 2 or 3 movie shoots laced in for maximum effect) or if he should lose to Ziggler tonight so he can start working his way up to the top of the card again. Just think what he could accomplish as WWE champion if they actually have him the ball and just let him freaking run with it. He has "2000 Triple H" heel potential in him.

And Ziggler will most likely be IC Champion again it's the only thing he can win

With less matches on the card, Miz/Ziggler could get about 15-20 minutes. They really could put on a great match in that time.

The match will rule, though. These two can go, it can be a bit excessive, but at least we have a good match set.
Even Miz is calling it the "Never-ending rivalry"

I think WWE are trying to elevate the IC title by having Ziggler face Miz, due to him having a World title feud last month. Not that that works in the eyes of most, but kids may well see it as more important based on this fact.
It should be a good match, given the right amount of time. With only 6 matches officially named, they should get at least 15 mins.

I don't look back at IC title feuds between 2012- early 2016 besides Owens/Ambrose because all of them were bad. They weren't feuds, they were just the same two guys wrestling each other every week and having it passed off as a "rivalry". So it doesn't bother me if they have an actual feud now with promo time and other segments now. They're really good friends outside the ring so I except a great match between the two

I don't see the problem. With the way the roster are ATM, you have to expect some rematches. At least this time, they're given a story-line to work with and will be higher on the card. I expect both guy to try their best to deliver tonight.

Really stupid. Especially after all the Buzz the Miz got from that promo.

So many young guys could benefit from fighting for the title instead of it being wasted on 2 guys who don't need it.
The Miz can't draw a dime and Ziggler just doesn't need it.

Lemme know the young guys who could Benefit? Apollo "no character" Crews? Baron Corbin who will likely never be a face? Because other than that your younger guys are all in tag teams

Look at it this way, at least Dolph Ziggler isn't facing Baron Corbin.
