3 reasons why Dolph Ziggler, not Brock Lesnar, attacked Kofi Kingston on Smackdown Live
WWE Smackdown was a better show than Raw, but it wasn't the makeover of R-Truth or the backstage assault on Big E that caught fans attention. The returning Dolph Ziggler's attack took the WWE Universe by surprise.
With AEW's Double Or Nothing this Saturday. the biggest wrestling juggernaut decided to pull all the strings to make the show a memorable one. There's nothing better than a surprise return, and who better than Dolph Ziggler.
The Show-Off is a master at his work, and his return shocked the fans. While his attack and the promo confirmed that Dolph will be a heel, the big question that everyone asked was, 'Why?' Why did he decide to attack the WWE Champion when The Beast Incarnate's humble advocate was on the ramp with the briefcase?
In this article, I share my thoughts on why Dolph Ziggler instead of Brock Lesnar attacked the WWE Champion:
#3 The Anticipation
The box office attraction was on Raw, and he did show a side of his which was all fun at the start of the show, while in the end he looked as if he was about to cash in the contract. The company wanted to take that anticipation factor to a new level, and this time without The Beast Incarnate on screen.
Everyone knew that when the former Universal Champion's music hit, he would cash in the contract, but the company wanted to keep this storyline going until next month.
While the fans have been waiting to see a big fight between the current WWE Champion and The Beast Incarnate, the company would want to hype this storyline until the blue brand moves to Fox in October later this year.
Why did the company decide to do so? The next slide may probably provide you the answers.
