At the 2014 Survivor Series, John Cena led Dolph Ziggler, Big Show, Ryback, and Erick Rowan against Team Authority. Seth Rollins, Kane, Luke Harper, Rusev, and Mark Henry comprised Team Authority. If Cena's squad failed, everyone save Cena would be dismissed, and the Authority would cease to exist. The contest was electrifying, and Big Show made quick work of eliminating Henry. Show's work was not done, though, as he turned heel by laying down Cena. Ultimately, Ziggler was the highlight of the night, and despite the fact that Sting was making his WWE debut, Ziggler covered Rollins to secure the victory.

In conclusion, Dolph Ziggler has left an indelible mark on WWE with his exceptional in-ring performances. These ten matches are just a glimpse into his storied career, which continues to inspire and entertain fans around the world. Whether he's stealing the show or defying the odds, Dolph Ziggler's matches are a testament to his passion and dedication to the world of professional wrestling.
