WWE Stomping Grounds 2019: 5 Potential Finishes for Kofi Kingston vs Dolph Ziggler

Does anyone really believe Dolph Ziggler could actually win the WWE Championship on Sunday at WWE Stomping Grounds?

It truly seems like Dolph Ziggler’s recent return was simply a placeholder feud for Kofi Kingston’s reign before he moves onto something else in the near future.

While you cannot deny The Showoff has had some very good promo work since his recent return, he hasn’t had a very long history of success in any major feud in the recent years.

The steel cage match stipulation does however add a clear element of unpredictably to this rematch at Stomping Grounds. Maybe we can see a true surprise.

So what can truly happen on Sunday? While fans might have some mixed opinions about this feud, there are a variety of possible outcomes to the WWE Championship match in Tacoma.

As we look forward to another WWE Championship match, I present my list of top five potential finishes for Kofi Kingston versus Dolph Ziggler:

---

#5 Dolph Ziggler Wins the WWE Championship Clean

It should have been me? It could very well be so on Sunday night

We might as well start with the most unlikely of possible options for the show.

The cage always for this possible finish. Dolph Ziggler could simply fall off the cage or beat Kofi Kingston in a race to escape the cage first.

If Kofi Kingston has been rewarded for his years of amazing service to the WWE then you cannot deny Ziggler, the 13-year veteran, hasn’t earned a run with the WWE Championship as well.

This sort of finish would allow Ziggler to also get his deserved moment with the title and allow the feud to continue through the rest of the summer months on WWE programming.

#4 Kofi Kingston Wins the Match Clean

KofiMania continues for another month

This is the easiest way to end this feud very quickly. This rematch only occurred because of the outside interference at WWE Super Showdown. If Dolph Ziggler loses in clear fashion to Kofi Kingston at Stomping Grounds, then the feud comes to a very quick and abrupt ending.

One of the reasons that someone does a title change is because the champion is not well received from the crowd. That is clearly not the case with Kofi Kingston, who still gets some of the best reactions from the WWE Universe.

It would be a shame to end the first title reign of Kingston after just two short months. The most logical option is for Kofi Kingston to cleanly and clearly overcome Dolph Ziggler. It is time for Kingston to find a more meaningful summer feud for the WWE Championship after this Sunday.

#3 New Day Helps Kofi Kingston Cheat to Retain the Championship

Can we have a repeat of Super Showdown?

The New Day has always had a habit of helping their own. While they are among the most popular stables in the company’s history, they haven’t had an issue working together to help their own over the past four years. That is why it wasn’t too surprising to see Xavier Woods cost Dolph Ziggler at Super Showdown. Will it happen again in Tacoma?

It wouldn’t be impossible for Xavier Woods and/or Big E to cost Dolph Ziggler the match by the slamming the cage door in his face or preventing him from reaching the floor as he attempts to climb over the cage.

This would allow for Dolph to continue his legit beef against the stable and extend their feud into Extreme Rules. And it wouldn’t be out of character for the pancake loving team to pull this option off at Stomping Grounds.

#2 Big E costs Kofi Kingston the WWE Championship

Sure they look happy now but that could all change at Stomping Grounds

It seems that the New Day have been a team forever. It is amazing to think they have been a constant team for over four years now. All three competitors are quite popular in their own right but until Kofi Kingston’s WWE Championship win, they have had limited singles success since joining forces in late 2014. That could quickly begin to change on Sunday.

The story is a simple one to tell. Big E could be jealous of all the attention that Kofi Kingston has been getting in recent months. Since he has returned from injury, he could also complain about the lack of support from his New Day brothers in the recent weeks.

Since all good things have to come to an end, why not have New Day end it all when we least expect it? After all, Big E does have a long history of working with Dolph Ziggler.

#1 Brock Lesnar Cashes In and Wins the WWE Championship

Will Brock cash in on Kofi instead?

The WWE has put a lot of attention on Brock Lesnar cashing in the Money in the Bank briefcase on Seth Rollins. After all, Rollins is the Superstar who took the WWE Universal Championship from Lesnar at WrestleMania. But there have been more then a few hints that Brock Lesnar could simply cash in on Kofi Kingston instead.

The set-up is such a simple finish to pull off. Kofi Kingston and Dolph Ziggler have just finished their grueling steel cage match. As Kofi goes to celebrate his hard ended win, Brock Lesnar’s music hits and he takes advantage of the exhausted competitors. Then Brock leaves with the title and takes the WWE Championship hostage until SummerSlam.

There are rumors that the Fox network really wants some major star power when SmackDown debut occurs in October. Nothing would make more sense then for the Beast to enter the hated heel with the WWE Championship title that he stole after a grueling steel cage match. He will get his chance to do so on Sunday.
