Apparently Dolph Zigger was furious with Sin Cara for this botched move, and plans to file a formal complaint against him. Seems to me like it certainly was not Sin Cara's botch, as Ziggler slipped twice and Sin Cara was already at the mercy of gravity before he could sort his feet out. I'd be very surprised if WWE take this further, as both guys simply tried putting their feet in the same spot on the top rope which caused the confusion.
Your thoughts?

Yeah, while I can understand Ziggler's frustration I definitely can't see how that was Sin Cara's fault - it was just one of those things I reckon.
Of course, the old "botch Cara" things started trending on Twitter, but I think that may well have happened whoever was holding Ziggler due to him being unable to find his footing. A near miss, and Ziggler especially was lucky to get out of that unhurt, but I definitely wouldn't have blamed Cara - it's one of those things where it's always going to be a genuine risk. The only thing that I MIGHT say is had Sin Cara waited until he was sure Ziggler was grounded that might have helped, but if people always did that then matches wouldn't have any realism or flow to them - both superstars have to trust each other, so I think this was just one of those things unfortunately.

Insights from the master
Sure, the fall was not intentionally Sin Cara's fault. He was in fact in motion when he started taking off, but the fact that he tried to rush the move is where he went wrong. I'm still fairly new to the world of wrestling, but I've already started to help train new people coming into the world of wrestling and the one thing I always tell them is to be patient in the ring. Sure there are those who can move quickly and go from one spot into another. But at the same time, they have a better chance at getting timing down right.
A good key to remember, for me, is to silently count to 3 to your opponent in lock up situations. This way, you both have time to prepare for the move and get ready to go into formations.
With that said, I do understand that both mean look to have lost footing and that stuff like this happens. There's a reason why people can talk about how fake it is, but never step between those ropes. Because the dangers that come with the territory are high and it's probably only beneath Rugby, Gridiron Football, or Hockey in terms of severe injury risk. The only difference is that, like they say, there is no off season for wrestling.

Even still, it's always nice to put the blame elsewhere as long as it stops you from getting in trouble.

I haven't watched or cared about wrestling in a long time but Ziggler's foot slipped like twice. Doesn't that mean he's in the wrong just a little?
