Ziggler deserves much better, he's proven himself time & again. & I don't know why Orton is butt hurt, he has to know he has maybe five more years in the business before he'll need to retire. Plus, Orton has been known to injure wrestlers. Of course, not as much as Jack Swagger & Botchsana, but not everyone can injure someone almost every time they get in the ring. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1889-small-talk-7th-floor-nurses-station/page/7/#findComment-177535

I was also involved in this rescue mission and had to pull Robert back and remind him that Andrews was NOT Putnam, blah, blah...it was an amazing adventure, and Wee Robin wasn't cowering in a corner or on a cot or frozen...she was proactive and had left clues for her Superspy Parents...and I'm not quite sure what happened to the Grants, because the dream segued suddenly and I found my arms full of a 3 month adorable baby.
