#3 The big reveal

Otis will finally get his hands on the man who stole his girl, at The Grandest Stage of Them All. But before Dolph Ziggler could come face to face with Otis in the ring, he had to take on Tucker this week on SmackDown.

Tucker did not hold back as he decided to punish The Showoff on behalf of his best friend. He took the fight all over ringside and smashed Ziggler into the steel steps to keep things moving.

However, Ziggler managed to get the better of Tucker and got control big poking Tucker’s eyes. He then delivered a Zig Zag to the big man on the steel steps, calling for a disqualification.

As Ziggler looked to do more damage to Tucker using the steel steps, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville arrived to stop him. Right then, Otis arrived to help his partner but a hacker took over the feed to reveal who was behind ruining Rose’s date with Otis.

Some extra footage played on the screen which confirmed that it was Deville who sent the texts to Otis and then worked with The Showoff to set up a date between her best friend and Ziggler.

While the big reveal could have waited until WrestleMania, there must be something that pushed WWE to bring the story out just a day or two before the match between Otis and Ziggler. While we don’t know the identity of the hacker who revealed the truth to the world, it was good watching the company use some innovative ways to push the storyline forward.
