Following the altercation in Las Vegas, Dolph Ziggler took to Twitter and once again reiterated his dislike of Goldberg as a wrestler, which seems to be a growing theme amongst WWE performers. Matt Riddle has jumped on the anti-Goldberg bandwagon, and it's helping him make a name for himself while in WWE NXT.

It's widely accepted that Goldberg lacks the in-ring technical ability of a Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, or even Dolph Ziggler, but love him or hate him Goldberg is still a big draw in the pro wrestling business, and at the height of his career was one of the biggest attractions the sport has ever seen.

Pro wrestlers, especially savvy ones like Dolph Ziggler, know that there is a multitude of ways to draw money and ratings, and in-ring ability is just one of them. Some pro-wrestlers make money off their look, others their mic ability, others their unique or eccentric characters, and others their superior in-ring wrestling abilities. Either way, money is money and a talent like Dolph Ziggler knows that he can still draw an audience and possibly money by continuing his feud with Goldberg following their SummerSlam match.
