3. Bobby Roode vs. Dolph Ziggler at Hell in a Cell Could Steal the Show
Smackdown got a glorious arrival a few weeks ago when former NXT Champion Bobby Roode made his debut to the main roster. Roode has had a successful wrestling career and made a bigger name for himself in NXT. Fans wondered when Roode would debut on the main roster and now as an official member of Smackdown, the future is bright for the glorious one.
The same might not be able to be said for one of the WWE’s longest-running superstars in Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler’s career has hit a crossroads and has been resorted to imitating a variety of superstars’ entrances – past and present– to make a point that anybody can do the superficial elements of the business, but not nobody can perform in the ring the way Ziggler can.
This came to a head on last night’s Smackdown when Ziggler imitated the Undertaker before being interrupted by Roode. Roode called out Ziggler and challenged him to a match at Hell in a Cell, which Ziggler accepted.
Ziggler is one of the best go-to guys in the company in terms of working with newer talent and Roode’s main roster pay-per-view debut match could be a show stealer. Ziggler has had a habit of out-performing his spot on the card and this match could truly be a gem.
Roode vs. Ziggler is a match fans can look forward to and it provides Hell in a Cell with an extra standout match that has all the makings of a potential show stealer.
