WWE Stomping Grounds: Dolph Ziggler will face Kofi Kingston inside a steel cage for the WWE Championship.
Kofi Kingston and Dolph Ziggler went out to write another chapter to their storied Rivalry. However, their match at WWE Super ShowDown was rather lacklustre. There were some cool moments but it was not up to the standards these two men are capable of. They do however have the opportunity to rectify this in a rematch that Ziggler demanded after his loss.

The Show Off dominated most of the match and really put Kofi on the backfoot. But as has been the case tonight; Kofi managed to pull of a victory at the last moment. Xavier Woods played a huge role in the victory though. Woods kicked Ziggler in the face when the referee wasn’t looking. Kofi then landed a Trouble in Paradise to seal the victory.

An incensed Ziggler spoke of his displeasure to Byron Saxton backstage. He told the interviewer that he did not expect Kofi to indulge in under handed tactics to win. Claiming that he had outperformed and outwrestled the champion; he demanded a rematch for the WWE Championship. This time however, he wants the champion alone; inside a steel cage.
It should have been @HEELZiggler, and he wants to prove it in a rematch against #WWEChampion @TrueKofi…
