Dolph Ziggler Seemingly Relinquishes U.S. Title, Walks Out of SD Live

On tonight's episode of WWE SmackDown Live, newly-crowned United States Champion Dolph Ziggler cut an ominous promo, saying that the WWE Universe "wasn't worthy of him." He then laid down the United States Championship belt and left the ring.
