Speculation On Dolph Ziggler After Bobby Roode’s U.S Title Win

Dolph Ziggler vacated the WWE United States Championship several weeks ago. Smackdown Live ran a tournament over the past few weeks to determine a new Champion. On Smackdown this week, Bobby Roode defeated Jinder Mahal to become the new United States Champion.

So what will happen next? Let’s speculate.

It seems like WWE could be rehashing the storyline from 2011 with CM Punk. Punk left with the WWE Championship and WWE held a tournament to crown a new Champion. After this, CM Punk returned and claimed that he was the real champion. A match was made for Summerslam for the Undisputed WWE Championship between him and John Cena.

It certainly looks like this is where we could be going with Dolph Ziggler. Dolph will return and claim that he never lost the U.S Title. Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon will announce a match for the Undisputed United States Championship: Ziggler vs Roode.

The only question I have is when will this happen? Will WWE announce it as early as next week for the Royal Rumble? Or will they wait until the next Smackdown PPV in March (Fastlane)?

I am going to guess that they announce it next week for the Rumble. Seems a bit too convenient that the U.S Title final was switched from the Rumble to this week on Smackdown Live.
