Wrestling world flares up with reactions to Dolph Ziggler's return on RAW

Former United States Champion Dolph Ziggler made a surprise return to RAW after nearly three months.

The Showoff was last seen on WWE television competing on the developmental brand as a heel. He was in a feud against Bron Breakker for the NXT Championship. Ziggler received acclaim from the WWE Universe in 2013 when he became the World Heavyweight Champion.

The former world champion sat ringside on the latest edition of RAW amidst a tag team match between Bobby Lashley and Riddle against Theory and Omos. When Theory was pinning Riddle, he put his foot on the ropes for support, but was pushed off by Ziggler. Thus, enabling Riddle and Lashley to get the win over Mr. MITB's team. After the match, The Showoff hit Theory with a superkick.
