Believe it or not, I am a big Dolph Ziggler fan and I also will go so far as to say that he's a future WWE Hall of Famer, despite the fact that the title of this slide may not really indicate the same. However, Drew McIntyre is on fire right now, and to have Dolph Ziggler steal his thunder by becoming the new WWE Champion would be a mistake and a half.
If you look at Drew McIntyre's career trajectory, since his return to WWE, it peaked at the point where he defeated Brock Lesnar clean at WrestleMania to become the WWE Champion. For him to lose to Dolph Ziggler, who let's face it, is not booked nearly as strongly as Lesnar is, would be a major step down.
Whatever the stipulation may be, I have to say that the WWE Champion should find a way to overcome Dolph Ziggler and move on to SummerSlam to face a more competitive opponent like Brock Lesnar or maybe even Randy Orton.
