7 things WWE subtly told us at SummerSlam 2019: Big mistake in title match, Champions to turn face?

#5. Dolph Ziggler is far more useful to the company than we realize

Goldberg and comedy. Who knew it would work out well?

Dolph Ziggler, as expected, got squashed by Goldberg in a whopping 1 minute and 50 seconds. It was certainly a minute and a half longer than what people anticipated but the highlight wasn't even in the match itself - but the post-match segment.

In short, Dolph Ziggler, after getting squashed, took to the mic to tell Goldberg that he couldn't square up to him "man to man" and was absolutely delusional. He ate a spear and then called Goldberg after he left - only for the legend to return and spear him again. Ziggler continued to mumble on the mic.

Ziggler showcased his comedic aspect in the segment and he surprisingly looked good even when being squashed. It just goes to show how versatile and underrated he is as a performer. This is why WWE values him as they do.
