United States Champion Dolph Ziggler def. John Morrison
NEW YORK – United States Champion Dolph Ziggler retained his title despite a game effort from John Morrison. But the showoff was humbled by Long Island’s Zack Ryder following the match. (PHOTOS)
The arrogant Ziggler engaged in a tough back and forth battle with The Prince of Parkour. He earned the pinfall after viciously attacking Morrison’s vulnerable neck before finishing him off with a crushing Zig Zag. With two matches in one night at Survivor Series less than a month after doing the same at Vengeance, the blond-coifed showoff has been convincing the WWE Universe that he just might be as good as he claims to be.
The build-up to Ziggler’s title defense against JoMo was not
without controversy. The match was announced this week on WWE.com despite the
popular Twitter petition of Internet Champion Zack Ryder, who was
angling for a title match himself.
The request was not accepted by Executive Vice President of Talent Relations and Interim Raw General Manager John Laurinaitis and the sold-out Madison Square Garden crowd sounded off on the issue, chanting “We want Ryder!” during the bout. They were not disappointed, as after Ziggler’s win, Ryder stormed the ring and gave the blond egoist a quick thrashing to the cheers of the WWE Universe.
After a post-victory battering and so many recent matches, Dolph Ziggler must feel like he needs a break. However, it will be tough for him to get one with a motivated and confident Zack Ryder constantly challenging him. Will these two Superstars meet again? Tune in to Raw SuperShow Monday nights at 9/8 CT on USA Network.
