10 superstars who deserve to be WWE Universal Champion more than Brock Lesnar

#3. Dolph Ziggler

The hardest working man in WWE just continues to get even better.

Dolph Ziggler seems like he's stuck in a Dean Malenko or Shane Helms role. The company obviously recognizes his supreme wrestling talent but does not believe he belongs in the main event picture. It is for this reason that men like Malenko and Helms never held a major promotion's big belt.

There are a grocery list of things that are holding Ziggler back from the main event picture. For one, WWE doesn't consider him to be world champion material, even though they put the belt on him once. His title reign could have been much better if he had better talent to work against.

Another knock against Ziggler is his size. He's obviously not small enough to be a cruiserweight but is also undersized for a heavyweight. Lower weight wrestlers can be successful in WWE, as AJ Styles has proven, but Styles uses a lot of high flying offence, something that Ziggler can do but normally eschews in favour of his top-notch technical offence.

Ziggler deserves to be world champion by virtue of his hard work and the fact that he can have a great match with anyone.
