Yeah, nowadays it's just another rest hold for the babyface to transition into his comeback sequence, but I'd still buy someone straight choking their opponent out for the win.
I'll agree about the Zig-Zag, though. If anything, I think Dolph should use that sweet jumping DDT as his finisher.

I know better than most about the sleeper, since I've tapped many times to the rear naked choke when I roll. I think I had the epiphany about me not really hating the sleeper as much as I hated Brutus the Barber Beefcake mid post.
