I dont think the show one show all thing is applicable here, its more geared towards if I win the pot and show my neighbor my hand everyone can see it

If Zybomb still had possible action left, it should be shown immediately.
Since Zy, didn't have possible action left, the dealer should hold the hand aside (facedown, until all action is completed), then show the table.

Table flipping is definitely a good option, but only when you know you are behind.

I agree with this - well, the first part anyway.

Showing the mucked hand to the player still in the hand could affect his decision, which is NOT acceptable. You had no decision left, so while showing YOU his hand was wrong (And he should be given a warning about this), it didn't affect anything. Turning the cards face up on the table makes the situation WORSE and not better, so that clearly shouldn't be done.

As for the guy not even in the hand opening his mouth, I would have gone off on him BIG TIME.

When something like this happens, you need to call the floor over immediately and ask for a ruling. They act in the best interest of the game nearly 100% of the time (no one is perfect, but they know more than that douchebag not even in the hand does).
