The Spirit Squad returned on WWE SmackDown Live last week, and they attacked Dolph Ziggler. Eventually Dolph Ziggler got the upper hand and cleaned house.
The two remaining members of the Spirit Squad returned once again at No Mercy and tried to cost Dolph his Career vs. Title match, but they were unsuccessful in their attempt.
