That pop when he came out... That false finish with Del Rio using the cross arm breaker to make us believe Dolph will fail That Pop when he won.. That genuine reaction of happiness by Team Rocket.
Amazingly book moment wwe. Kudos.

I did most of my marking out in the Raw thread so I'll try to keep this under control, This moment was incredible. This crowd were incredible. The sheer emotion displayed by Ziggler when he won is up there with any title win I can remember in WWE. The work he has put in over the last three years to become the best WRESTLER that WWE has to offer finally pays off. I haven't reacted to a WWE moment like this since Money In The Bank 2011. As that what it was like, the title finally going to the right guy in the best environment possible. Good on Ziggler, he's gone from a unamed golf caddy to a male cheerleader to a one-hour champion to a show-off and finally to World Champion (for longer than a hour )

The pop when he came out was incredible, and from the point they started checking on del Rio up until Dolph got the pin, my heart was beating so damn hard. Great moment.

He'll likely be a horribly booked transitional champ. I dare you to have more faith in creative than that based on how he's been booked the last 1-2 years. Everyone will be fearing the Smackdown spoiler threads getting 10+ pages each week

Best cash-in yet. WWE horribly books a lot of things, but please WWE, don't mess this up.

Everyone will be fearing the Smackdown spoiler threads getting 10+ pages each week I don't need to have faith. You have faith when you need to wait for something to happen - tonight was that something already. Ziggler could lose the title on Smackdown and it still couldn't ruin this moment.

WWE: "Were so damn sick of him being so damn sick, we put the World Title on him"
Oh and FYI, its "World Heavyweight Champion" Dolph Ziggler.

With the audio better on RAW than at WM, it was best to hold off the cash-in until tonight so we could really feel the magnitude of the crowd's reaction. Really appreciated that Del Rio looked strong as well.
As for me, the victory was bittersweet. Happy for Ziggler, sad for Del Rio. But it's for the best, and I'm looking forward to the rematch!

One of the few times I've gotten teary-eyed watching wrestling. Absolutely amazing.

The fact that at the end of the night, Fandango's theme is remembered more than his win is, spells doom for poor Dolph.

It reminded me a lot of Edge's first cash-in. Happened in similar ways but either way it was worth it. He might be a transitional champion to Swagger and then win it back while turning face but we'll see.

Don't say Randall might hear you and it will be Orton/Christian all over again

I just can't buy Ziggler as a heel after that. Everybody was so happy Dolph won. Was AJ even moved to tears?
This should definitely be the start of his face turn, he could draw a lot of money as a face IMO.

What I loved about it besides the drama of Ziggy getting out of the arm bar was the selling by both guys -- right up to the edge of over-the-top, but totally believable on both parts.
That, gentlemen and women, is what it's all about.

I was scared shitless that Team Hell No would ruin it since Big E threw Bryan on to Kane. Then he won...and I marked hard

It's about Damn time. Just wished he had more credible wins against main eventers.
