#3 Dolph Ziggler Superkicked Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels had a memorable night at RAW Reunion when DX teamed up with Seth Rollins to have a brawl with the Club. After that, the WWE Hall of Famer appeared on SmackDown Live. As a matter of fact, he was a special guest on Miz TV.

While the A-Lister was having an interesting interview with Michaels, Dolph Ziggler interrupted the segment. The Show-off also appeared on the Miz TV last week. Things got heated between Ziggler and Michaels as the latter called the former a "Second Rate Shawn Michaels wannabe". Ziggler surprised everyone when he delivered a vicious Superkick to Michaels.

Judging by the segment, Ziggler is likely to fight the Miz at SummerSlam, however, Michaels could be part of this rivalry. Considering Michaels was knocked down by a Superkick, he will be seeking his revenge.
