Jim Ross Thinks Dolph Ziggler Will Find His Way Back To WWE In A Different Role
Dolph Ziggler will find his way back to WWE in a different role.
Last month, WWE let go several stars including Mustafa Ali, Dolph Ziggler, Emma and more.
In the hours following the mass releases, the wrestling world reacted to the releases, with John Cena and Big E leading the way with praise for Dolph Ziggler.
Jim Ross spoke on his Grilling JR podcast about Ziggler’s WWE release, believing he will find his way back to WWE in a different role.
“I don’t know that he’s permanently gonna be gone from WWE. I think once the dust settles and you start thinking about roles that he could fill, and there are many, not just wrestling. But I was listening to somebody, maybe it was on Busted Open or something the other day, and they were talking about Dolph, and he might be in line for a role much like Adam Pearce is on Raw. If that’s the case, then he’ll do a great job. Ziggler’s a star. You don’t just cast stars to the side. So I’m predicting that Ziggler gets back in the game with WWE in some role, but a different role than wrestling. He’s a great talker, he’s got a great appearance, he looks good, a smart kid. Always been very respectful to me. He’s a talent, and I don’t think that talents like him come along that often, and knowing how smart Triple H is, they may find a role for Dolph that’s just perfect for him at this point in time in his career. Good guy. He could help a lot of companies, no doubt about it. I know he has other interests too. He enjoys doing his comedy shows and things of that nature. I’m a big Dolph Ziggler fan and I hope that he has nothing but success in his career. He deserves it, he’s earned it, and I’m just excited to see where he’s heading next,”
Jim Ross
With most of the talent released having 90 day non-competes, we will have to wait a couple of months until we do know what comes next for the talents released by WWE last month.
