WWE Extreme Rules: 5 potential finishes for Dolph Ziggler vs Seth Rollins 

Dolph Ziggler defends his Intercontinental Championship against Seth Rollins this weekend at Extreme Rules in the first-ever Ironman match at the Extreme Rules pay-per-view but the fact that Drew McIntyre will be at ringside could be a deciding factor in the outcome of this match.

The rules of an Ironman match dictate that the winner is whoever can score the most amount of pinfalls in the allotted time. Ziggler and Rollins have been given a 30-minute time limit on their match as The Architect looks to reclaim the title that he lost a few weeks ago on Raw.

This is both Rollins and Ziggler's first Ironman match in WWE, which means that despite Ziggler being considered to be the more experienced star in the match he doesn't have any kind of advantage over Rollins, despite McIntyre at ringside.

#5 Seth Rollins reclaims his Intercontinental Championship

Seth Rollins could reclaim his title on Sunday night

Seth Rollins was the best thing to happen to the Intercontinental Championship and ever since he became a Grand Slam Champion back at WrestleMania, he has helped to raise the profile of the Championship over the past months.

Rollins only lost his Championship because of interference from Drew McIntyre and with Ziggler's future in WWE up in the air, many fans have argued that Rollins could lift the title once again this weekend.

The Architect has already proved that he has incredible stamina after he was part of a gauntlet match on Raw for more than an hour back in April and that could be the deciding factor in his match this weekend.

#4 Drew McIntyre turns on Dolph Ziggler

Is Drew McIntyre a hindrance or an advantage at ringside?

There's no arguing the fact that Dolph Ziggler has revitalized Drew McIntyre's career, but at some point, the duo is going to have to go their separate ways so that McIntyre can be given the push he deserves on Monday Night Raw.

It is unknown if this is something that will happen at Extreme Rules and then lead to a match between the duo at SummerSlam, but having McIntyre at ringside could be more of a hindrance to Ziggler than an advantage.

There have already been teasing of issues between the Scottish star and the showoff, but this would be a turn that WWE fans won't see coming and would allow Rollins to take back his Championship since a DQ loss would hand The Architect a win in the tally.

#3 Dolph Ziggler retains the Intercontinental Championship

Dolph Ziggler could retain his Championship

Dolph Ziggler is one of WWE's most popular superstars and he's doing fantastic things on Monday Night Raw right now. The former World Champion has always occupied a familiar spot in the mid-card and in recent weeks he has been able to step up his game.

Rollins has been in red-hot form in 2018 and there are many reports that suggest that he could be going after Brock Lesnar and the Universal Championship. In order for Rollins to go on to bigger things, he needs to step away from the Championship and allow Ziggler to retain. There is also the added factor that Drew McIntyre could actually help Ziggler retain and the duo could remain on the same page for a while longer.

#2 Seth Rollins' equalizer

Rollins always has a plan B

This is WWE, if you think that WWE doesn't have a trick up their sleeve then you haven't been watching long enough. Rollins is a fan favorite and he's going into a match where the odds are stacked against him, which means that if Drew McIntyre decides to interfere in the match, then there could be someone there to even the odds.

Rollins' best friend Dean Ambrose is close to returning to WWE right now, whilst his former teammate Jason Jordan has been backstage at Raw over the past few weeks, so either of these stars could step up to save Rollins on the night.

Mcintyre and Ziggler have been running riot on Raw for weeks and finally, it could be time for them to have a taste of their own medicine.

#1 A draw

Dolph Ziggler and Seth Rollins could fight it out to a draw

Ironman matches are rare occurrences in WWE but given that Rollins and Ziggler have just 30 minutes to decide who the rightful Intercontinental Champion is, there is a small chance that the match could end in a draw.

This has happened a number of times throughout history and has then gone into sudden death, with the next pin in the match taking the victory. Rollins stamina could definitely be a deciding factor in this since both men will be expected to fire on all cylinders for more than 30 minutes and one distraction, error or moment of brilliance could then signal the end of the match.
