Regarding the Dolph Ziggler title change this week, the crowd chants on Monday in New Jersey did not lead to a last second decision to put the world title on Ziggler.
According to multiple sources, the plan for several weeks was for Ziggler to cash in and win the WWE World Title the day after RAW. The belief was that Ziggler losing to so many talents as of late would create interest in the talents who will now chase him for the belt since “they can beat him.”
There were initial plans for a Jack Swagger title run, but they were shot down after his DUI arrest.
