SEGMENT TWO: Sheamus vs. Dolph Ziggler
Match Result: Sheamus pinned Dolph Ziggler
Match Length: A little under nine and a half minutes

One of the most challenging things about this weekly review column is discussing the matches. TV matches offer so little variation often because of time restraints, commercial breaks, and predictable booking. In many ways, you see the participants at their cores, stripped down to basics. Here, we see Sheamus as a powerhouse and Dolph Ziggler as a good wrestler who bumps well, but was clearly never going to win. The best he could shoot for was ‘looking good in defeat.’ It’s the same Sheamus and Ziggler we usually see in TV matches. And this was a solid match. No complaints on my end about it – nor about the post-match attack by Alberto Del Rio. But, is there anything of any consequence to say? That’s how you wind up with matches that you don’t have any negatives to discuss that get 7.0 or so out of ten. Self-imposed limitations.

Rating: 7.0 out of 10
