Dolph Ziggler became the No. 1 Contender to Intercontinental Title


BOSTON – With Christian out of action on WWE Main Event, Dolph Ziggler battled Intercontinental
Champion Big E in a fierce title contest. Plus, ten
of WWE’s battling beauties competed for
momentum, en route to The Grandest Stage of
Them All.

Despite winning the opportunity to battle Big E for
the Intercontinental Championship on Raw, it was
revealed on Main Event that Christian had
sustained a slight concussion during the intense
Raw Fatal 4-Way Match and could no longer
compete. As a result, Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio and Dolph
Ziggler – Captain Charisma’s opponents on Monday
night – faced-off in a Triple Threat Match to name a
new No. 1 Contender. While all three Superstars left
everything they had on the canvas in the
subsequent free-for-all, the unbridled determination on Ziggler helped him hit the Zig Zag on Del Rio for
the pin – just as The Mexican Aristocrat was
executing a backstabber on Sheamus. After the dust cleared, The Showoff lived up to his
name, vowing to Renee Young that he would win
the Intercontinental Championship later in the show
as well as the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle
Royal at WrestleMania. But as he shook hands with
the calm and collected Big E, the WWE Universe was reminded that that would be no small task.

Divas Champion Paige vs. Tamina Snuka

Paige may have unwittingly backed her way into winning the Divas Championship from AJ Lee, but to keep hold of the Divas division’s top prize, she’ll have to survive a one-on-one contest with AJ’s muscle, Tamina Snuka, at Extreme Rules. After spending months in AJ’s corner, helping the sinister skipper secure the longest Divas Championship reign in history, Tamina stepped out of the shadows on the April 15 edition of WWE Main Event to win a No. 1 Contender’s Battle Royal. Her dominant display in the match bumped Tamina to the head of the line of contenders, and on May 4, she’ll set her sights on The Diva of Tomorrow. Watch Paige defend the NXT Women's Championship at ArRIVAL The matchup is a fascinating one for fans of Divas action. There are obvious parallels, such as the fact both competitors grew up in wrestling families.
