^That might've been the first time Dolph Ziggler did anything heelish.

Fitting end to a show that, aside from a few episodes here and there, stopped being entertaining many months ago.

So, does this count as Ziggler cashing in the Money In The Bank and winning the show?

Well there you go, Z True Long Island story is over. And as a result of the show, so is Ryder. Yeah, he may be in almost the same position on the card right now in comparison to January 2011, but like they said in this show... it changed his life for the best. With ZTLIS: *Gradual push up the card, and even though he fell right back down again, he still gets a lot more TV time now than in 2011 *Face turn to capitalise on growing overness *Wide range of merch, with royalty bonuses *Was possibly the most over full-time talent on the night of Survivor Series 2011 at Madison Square Garden, and that was only for a run in *A memorable United States Championship win, in a pretty good match to boot *A main card WrestleMania match *Various other great moments (segments with possibly one of the biggest legit celebs WWE has had in Hugh Jackman, winning the Great American Battle Royal over several main event guys) *Indirectly forcing WWE's hand in regards to social media, which they have now embraced whole-heartedly Without ZTLIS: *Continued sporadic appearances as a heel *Probably released by the end of 2011 *Who knows? TNA? Indies? He might have gotten exposed as a sub-par mic guy and an inconsistent wrestler, but Ryder's still young. As long as he doesn't (completely) lose his s*** Matt Hardy-style and keeps improving his skills where he can, it's not impossible that he could get another push down the line.

Also ZTLIS helped The Big O make the PWI 500.

That was Zack's way of saying he's been granted a release isn't it?
If so, well good luck too him! Can't say he didn't busy his ass to get somewhere even if he has ended up a little jaded

I hadn't watched in a while and it seemed to be winding down.
Still good final effort by Zack. The send off with all the cameos at the end was pretty cool.
I'm sure it's back to never being on TV and jobbing when he is, but at least he had a brief time with relevance.
Surprised the "WWE buried me" comment went through at the end.

So, anybody else think this will lead to him changing up his character a bit?

Did Morrison just try to convince Zack to kill himself?

The show itself needed to die so that Ryder could get away from the stigma of being "That YouTube Guy". But otherwise, his gimmick is fine as it is.

All this talk of Ziggler's overselling, and Ryder nearly dies from a case shot?

I got a tear in my eye. Man, I remember when Zach was arguably the most over guy on the WWE roster. And now? He's stuck in lower midcard hell. But the last time he was in lower midcard hell, he came up with this stroke of genius, and got insanely over. I think Ryders gonna rise up the card, just watch. Adios, ZTLIS. We'll always have the memories.

For a moment I thought Ziggler was gonna cash in his MITB on the internet championship. Did Morrison just try to convince Zack to kill himself? I think he tried to convince him to come to the indies.

....with all the talk here with Zack going away, watch this be the Rumble match where he actually gets an elimination or 2 and lasts 25 minutes (versus his usual 1-2 minute cameos in the past).....
