Real Reason for US title match being scrapped

[Tired]

We reported earlier that the US Title match at Night of Champions may have been called off. It has been. But the reason will be given on this weeK's SmackDown.

<div class='spoiler_toggle'>This week on SmackDown</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">

According to story line, Dolph Ziggler needs to beat US Champion Dean Ambrose in order to get a title shot.

Ziggler become the number one contender despite losing every televised match in the past month. As Ambrose did not issue a challenge, and Ziggler is meant to be in Triple H's bad books, it did not make sense for him to become the number one contender. All publicity for this match has been pulled until it becomes "official".

Generally speaking, when someone beats a champion in a non-title match, they automatically earn a title match. This will be the logic for this story line.

Ziggler had already been announced as the top contender by Michael Cole on 2 different episodes of Raw. </div>

So is this issue real or its just a storyline?

 

[AKI Man]

I am feeling its a bit of both.

It is both. The story line was scripted before it happened for real.

But the WWE has to keep this in perspective. They can't encourage certain stars to have "worked shoot" moments, and then punish others for doing the same thing. The current story line is reflecting feelings fans have had for over a decade. The WWE cannot get mad at fans for feeling the way they do if it is the desired effect.
