10 “Say What?” Moments from WWE Smackdown Live - October 11th 2016

Dolph saved his career at No Mercy

#1 Slater & Rhyno save Dolph, but why?

Ziggler got a bit of revenge on his former partners

Dolph Ziggler kicked off this week’s Smackdown Live to celebrate his big victory from No Mercy and to thank the fans for all their support.

However, it wasn’t long until he was interrupted by Miz & Maryse and then later by Kenny & Mikey of the Spirit Squad whom Dolph would go on to face in a 2-on-1 handicap match. Ziggler would ultimately get the win over his former partners but would then be jumped by Miz immediately after the match and beatdown by the former Champion.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

With Ziggler facing a 3-on-1 beatdown, it was the Smackdown Tag Team Champions, Rhyno & Heath Slater, who could come to his aid. But why?

Besides being babyfaces, there was no logical reason for them to help Dolph and this issue was never explained during the two-hour broadcast. Surely the Hype Bros making the save would have made more sense as Zack Ryder and Dolph’s friendship is well known and Ziggler was even wearing a Hype Bros t-shirt during the opening segment.
