5 Reasons why Dolph Ziggler turned babyface against Drew McIntyre on RAW

#3 Ziggler's recent injury just upset plans all around

Two weeks ago, Ziggler did not show up owing to a legitimate injury

Dolph Ziggler suffered a foot injury around two weeks ago. Because of the same, a makeshift team of Corbin, Lashley and McIntyre was formed. It turned out that Ziggler's injury wasn't too serious. And by the time he returned, the faction was already running things on the red brand.

It was just a case of unfortunate timing for Ziggler. Maybe the unit of Ziggler and McIntyre would have carried all the way to WrestleMania 35, if the injury hadn't happened. But it did happen and what we have is what we have.

That said, maybe Ziggler can make good on his babyface run, this time. It's been a while since he was a good guy.

Because he's a WWE veteran who's entertained us for so many years, the crowd does respect him.
