Ziggler finds himself in a spot on the main roster where he's sort of the 'gatekeeper' to the new guys who get called up from NXT. He's two most recent feuds were against Shinsuke Nakamura and Bobby Roode.

However, these two feuds didn't really do either man any favours, Nakamura and Roode didn't get the boost they needed to propel themselves into the mid-card and Ziggler's stock further fell following 'yet another' predictable loss.

This title win means that Ziggler has some momentum again and this will undoubtedly be a good thing for the Superstars that he puts over going forward.
