Dolph Ziggler made his pay-per-view debut, as entrant number twenty-seven at the 2009 Royal Rumble. While his debut may have lasted only a few shy seconds, let’s just say he made the most of it. After tearing down the entry, Dolph was on fire as he made a few quick attacks, only to be met by Kane standing beside him. Ever the opportunist, Ziggler figured he’d introduce himself to Kane. Only, Kane had introduced him to the ropes, then later, the mat, as Dolph Ziggler had been eliminated from the Royal Rumble just as fast as he made his entrance.

Candice Michelle and Dolph Ziggler are shown backstage, as Ziggler boasts about his Royal Rumble possibilities. Candice, without saying a word, nods and “agrees” only to direct her attention towards the returning WWE Chairman, Vince McMahon. McMahon enters, as he introduces himself to a speechless Dolph Ziggler. Waiting for Ziggler to introduce himself (he’s starstruck and at loss for words), McMahon walks off disappointed. Left alone once again, Candice laughs at Ziggler as he shakes his head in confusion.

The powers that be have finally decided to add Dolph Ziggler’s profile to WWE.Com. Now, I’m not saying that I don’t procrastinate (RAW results & media shall be added shortly), but really… I guess it’s better late than never.

Since making his debut on Raw, this aggressive young Superstar has made certain that every ring warrior on the roster knows his name. For weeks leading up to his first match he would approach Superstars and Divas alike in the locker room area with what has since become a familiar refrain: “Hi, I’m Dolph Ziggler.”

With his slicked-back blond hair, impressive physique and cocksure attitude, Ziggler gives off the aura of an athlete who knows exactly what he’s doing. The young Superstar makes use of his impressive amateur wrestling background (during which he won more matches than anyone in Kent State University’s history) to ensure that for years to come, the WWE Universe will remember the name of Dolph Ziggler.

As for RAW, in another “blink and you’ll miss him” moment, Dolph Ziggler was backstage as he spotted Mickie James randomly lounging around up against a pole, when he decided to introduce himself. After the usual “Hi, I’m Dolph Ziggler.” without missing a beat, Mickie James replied with “yeah, I’ve heard.” Guess some are harder to please than others?

In a “blink or you’ll miss him” moment, Dolph Ziggler introduced himself to Kelly Kelly backstage. Before the two could actually converse, Kelly turned her back to bring her full attention to herself, primping in front of the mirror. Ziggler would walk away as The Miz and Morrison would later interject themselves into the scene. Later on in the night, John Cena would ‘name-call’ Dolph Ziggler during his in-ring promo.

The winner Dolph Ziggler was already in the ring out of the break. After Lilian Garcia announced his name, Dolph accepted the stick and allowed himself to introduce himself. Fans didn’t appreciate the introduction without a “Hello My Name Is…” sticker. Lilian then introduced Santa Clause, hailing from the South Pole. Out walked Santa Claas, per the graphic, with a bag slung over his shoulder. Haas handed out presents to kids ringside while Cole plugged SD/ECW taping in Baltimore tomorrow night featuring the new WWE champ. Ticket sales must be sluggish. Cole demanded a present while some greedy kids fought over the gifts. Haas finally made his way into the ring while Dolph shot him an eyebrow or three. Dolph then extended his hand, but Haas handed him the cover to a box instead and Dolph demanded the match to start.

“Santa, Santa” chant to start things, then Cole: “Santa may have the home field advantage in the Igloo.” Oh Lord help us. Haas, with a big fat gut, landed a big splash in the corner to start things off, but Dolph snapped off a dropkick that rocked Haas’s beard. Dolph followed with a leaping elbow drop for a two count. Haas did the big elbow combo to escape a chinlock while Lawler went to his bag of Mae Young jokes. Have to clear the cobwebs every few months. Fans tried to rally behind Santa Haas while Dolph continued to work his faux beard into his mouth. Lawler said it’s kind of surreal.

Santa Haas appeared to be tapping out from a chinlock, which would have been a first and orgasmic for Randy Orton, but Haas escaped and avoided an elbow drop. Haas then ripped off the beard and Santa’ed up with left hand jabs and a dropkick. Haas charged Dolph in the corner before missing a second corner splash and he walked into a leaping neckbreaker for the pin and the win.

Dolph tried to ruin every Cena fan’s night by tearing apart Santa Haas until ref Marty stopped him from ripping out the stuffing from Haas’s suit. Dolph finally had enough for one night and left the ring satisfied with himself. Where’s Sting to beat some respect into him?
