On this weeks episode of Smackdown LIVE, Dolph Ziggler faced off against The Miz. The Miz would go on to win the match with a little help from his wife Maryse. With this win, he became the new WWE Intercontinental Champion, ending Ziggler’s title reign at only a couple of weeks.
This also means that Sami Zayn will no longer be facing Dolph Ziggler at Survivor Series. He will instead be taking on the Miz for the WWE Intercontinental Championship.
Sami Zayn tweeted after the match:
Would have loved to steal the show with @HEELZiggler, but it’ll be just as sweet taking the #ICTitle from @mikethemiz at #SurvivorSeries!

The Miz fired back at Sami:
This isn’t the indies, kid. You should be at the bingo hall down the street from the Air Canada Centre. #Day1TheMizICTitleReunionTour https://t.co/EH5ELDcOB7

I was originally saying that I was disappointed that we won’t be seeing Ziggler vs Sami. I thought they would have stolen the show at Survivor Series. I have changed my mind and am still looking forward to the match now that it is the Miz instead. I think the Miz is underrated in the ring and can put on some entertaining matches. I am sure Sunday against Zayn will be no different. We already know Sami can put on incredible matches, with 3 of the top 10 matches of 2016 so far.
