Ladder Match for Intercontinental Title
Luke Harper (c) vs. Dolph Ziggler
Best Case Scenario: The Match of the Night, and an early frontrunner for match of the year (in this scenario, the Slammys are the line of demarcation between years) with Harper retaining through some next-level shenanigans and/or world-class chicanery that allow Ziggler to move forward in a positive direction and Harper to build momentum and value into his title reign.
Worst Case Scenario: Ziggler wins, and is immediately booked in a series of non-title matches for later in the night against various remnants of the Authority, all of which he loses.
What Nick Wants to Happen: A chance for Ziggler to do what he does best: get out of sticky situations with bruisers coming after him in a way that makes him look more like Spiderman and less like Superman’s sidekick.
What Will Happen: Only hindered in its show-stealing capabilities by the expectations going in, a brilliant performance by both men ends with Ziggler loses in a way that anyone with half a brain will be able to see as relatively positive moving forward, and those who make their living complaining on the internet will see as a “burial” without an even cursory understanding of what that means.
