Tonight’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown saw Dolph Ziggler go up against Montez Ford, in a big match between two members of respective feuding tag team duos. Despite Ford making it rain solo cups and controlling things early, Ziggler was able to come away with a win thanks to some help from Robert Roode.
After making fun of Ziggler and Roode in a pre-match segment, the two met in the ring, and despite Ford having the upper hand and even causing some shenanigans of his own in the form of solo cups raining down onto the ring, Ziggler used his partner to help out and come away with a win. Late in the match, Roode – who was at ringside watching – attacked Dawkins, who was also at ringside with Ford. The attack distracted Ford, giving Ziggler enough time to land a huge superkick on him for the win.
