WWE.com Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler vs. Kofi Kingston |
At WWE Night of Champions, WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler will put his title on the line against WWE Star Kofi Kingston. If Ziggler gets disqualified or counted out, the bleach-blond Superstar’s high-flying adversary will soar away the new champion!
WWE Star Dolph Ziggler captured the Intercontinental Title from Kingston, thanks in part to a distraction from WWE SmackDown’s Official Consultant Vickie Guerrero. Though a rematch was signed for WWE SummerSlam, a brutal attack on both Superstars by The Nexus during the match prevented a clear winner from being declared.
In back-to-back rematches on WWE SmackDown, WWE Star Ziggler managed to hold on to his illustrious title by questionable means, thanks once again to his nefarious girlfriend Vickie. In their first showdown just when it appeared WWE Star Kingston was gaining a decisive advantage Guerrero pushed the No. 1 contender off the top rope, drawing the disqualification. One week later when both Superstars were attempting to beat the referee’s count back into the ring Guerrero prevented Ziggler’s reentry. Since the title can only change hands by pinfall or submission, Ziggler’s title reign survived both of the strategic loses.
To prevent further controversy from occurring at Night of Champions, WWE SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long stipulated that if WWE Star Ziggler gets counted out or disqualified,WWE Star Kingston will reclaim the coveted title.
