[2012-06-17-WWE-No Way Out] Dolph Ziggler vs Sheamus

[SmartMark15]

Sheamus vs. Dolph Ziggler (WWE No Way Out 2012)

Two guys who I felt would have a decent enough shot at making the bottom half of the list put on an incredibly technically sound match. I mean, all things considered, there's not much I can point to in this match and say was "bad" or "wrong." There are even a few things I liked. I liked how Sheamus' arm was the key to the transitions. I liked Ziggler's headstand headlock. Everything else though just felt entirely lifeless. No urgency. No emotion. Just...a blank slate of well executed and well laid out moves. Perhaps that's my own personal bias about the workers speaking through but that's how I felt about this particular match.

***1/2

I prefer the match they had on Smackdown, 22nd June 2012, featuring this.
