Dolph Ziggler as a main eventer in 3 years?

[oddman84]

Would you buy it?

3 years. Let's say he has that time from now. Wins MITB in 2013 and cuts out the awkward stuff(slapping his ass,dog colar, crappy divas as valet)

I think it could happen but so many times a wrestler appears out of the blue with so much potential like this guy and they usually fade.

Dolph has done well and really seems like the guy that could end up deserving to be more than just midcard player, more than a big mans monday/friday night dinner and should be pushed as threat.

They should just give him a face run after the Vickie thing(which looks like it's obviously going to happen) and send him to RAW to spice up the midcard/upper midcard because at the moment the only guy dominating it is The Miz and if Dolph ended up feuding with him he could get over huge as a cool babyface. He could pull it off without it seeming forced aswell.

He could be a hybrid of Razor Ramon/HBK/Mr. Perfect.

Faces who could pull of being face and still have that heel behavior that got them over.

[jmdog]

He needs a new name and to sharpen it up in ring before that happens.

[4real]

We need to see more of his personality first. If he's going to become a heel on the level of The Miz, Kane, CM Punk, Jericho heck even ADR he needs more time on the mic and more time to find out exactly what the heck this guys motivation is.

[Red Impact]

After all this time, the only thing I see in Dolph Ziggler is the guy who does the sleeper and introduced himself a lot. They need to actually have him do something to make him an actual main eventer, and that doesn't include getting heat by proxy through Vickie Guerrero.

[oddman84]

I agree. That's why I don't get the dog colar and ass slapping shit.

He could atleast make us understand why we are seeing this!

When he can cut a good promo I guess we will find out whether he can be a main player.

I feel that he has the tools to be the next big thing as long as they don't f*** it up. Right now the Vickie thing is a bit over the top.

[perkleton]

sharpen up in the ring? i dont see that at all
hes pretty damn good at the moment, and he has a lot of potential. but yeah we do need to see abit more of him on the mic

[mrjl]

I'm ready to put him there now. Match him up against the Big Show or Edge to start.

[Big L]

I could see him main eventing by that time maybe even by 2012

[Bake Or Die]

I say in 2 years

[Corre.222]

WHAT IS HIS PERSONALITY, WHAT IS HIS GIMMICK, WHAT IS HIS BACKSTORY........OR WHAT IS HIS IDENTITY. WHO IS DOLPH ZIGGLER?

Right now, his personality is just a run-off-the-mill regular guy that just wrestles and leaves.

Jack Swagger is the All American American overachieving amateur wrestler from Oklahoma, and daddy's boy.
MVP is the reformed former criminal who parties, always is VIP in the club who has a good time, and is BALLIN

But what is Dolph Ziggler, what forms him?

[rnrk supports BLM]

I think Nick Nemeth is a very talented performer, but I also think he'll need to completely reinvent himself with a gimmick overhaul if he doesn't want to be midcard for life.

[MrBRulzOK]

I love Ziggler as a wrestler.

That said, the guy needs to stop taking all those insane bumps. That's the main thing that'll cut his career short if he's not more careful.

[Alex Shelley]

Yes, I would buy Dolph Ziggler. Especially if he comes with that collar he wore last night.

Yeah, how silly of me to make a post about Dolph Ziggler, in a thread about Dolph Ziggler in a wrestling forum. If there's anywhere that no one would care about anything Dolph Ziggler, naturally it would be in a Dolph Ziggler thread

[Das Einhorn]

I don't buy him... yet. But hell, in three years, he could be the breakout star.
Needs more mic time, and really needs to step it up when he is given mic time at all.
Needs to get away from the divas. He is a decent wrestler in his own right, why have him be overshadowed by his manager?
Needs just a bit more polish to really stand out in the mid-card hell of Smackdown.
In time, he will develop these things. If WWE can be patient and not pull the trigger too soon, I'll be a fan sitting strongly in his corner one day.
'Til then.... I patiently wait for the next wrestler who catches my eye.

[Stu]

Imagine if he were to come out and do a worked shoot about having played a caddie, a male cheerleader and a boy toy. If it's done well, that alone could make a difference. Of course, we need to know if he's going to be a heel or a face. I could see him portraying a SRS heel, although he'd have to step it up so as not to be compared to SRS Jericho. Otherwise, a SRS Face wouldn't really work.

[Nic Nemeth]

Hell give me a couple months and I'm already there.

Exactly.

[Mozenrath]

3 years, a lot can happen. Kane went from dentistry to taking 3 Tombstones to stay down in 3 years, so who is to say?
