Dolph Ziggler challenges Natalya's Sharpshooter against his stand-up comedy

The former World Heavyweight Champion has proposed a stipulation for a potential matchup against Natalya.

WWE shared a video of The Showoff and The Queen of Harts from an episode of The Bump last year. In the video, Natalya locked Ziggler in the sharpshooter, and the latter quickly tapped out while on set for the show.

Ziggler replied with an intriguing arrangement for the hypothetical match. To see who will submit first, The Showoff will put up his stand-up comedy against Natalya's Sharpshooter.

Dolph Ziggler recently criticized US Champion Austin Theory, claiming he was unfit to hold the title. It'll be interesting to see if Ziggler can reclaim Theory's title in the near future.
