Supposedly had he not gotten hurt, he would have taken Ziggler's role during Survivor Series and use that as the launch pad for the road to the Rumble.
Would explain why the WWE quickly dropped Ziggler's post-SS push since they didn't want to change the Rumble plans and also didn't want that rub to be too huge. Same for Dean's push at the time likely just being a placeholder for what was meant for Reigns.
