2. Kerwin White's Caddy
"If it isn't White, it ain't right." That was the catchphrase of the brief WWE character named Kerwin White, who was played by Chavo Guerrero. Ziggler was brought in as Nick Nemeth (his real name) and introduced as his caddy. This was in the summer of 2005, so it was his official debut. The White gimmick was ridiculous from the start with Chavo denouncing his Hispanic heritage so he could be an Anglo-American and he said things like Chavo wasn't there anymore because he's trying to get a job at a taco stand like all the other underemployed Hispanics. He told us that he lived by "white values" and said that "the great white hope has arrived." Soon after the gimmick got going, he debuted his caddy. We didn't know anything about Ziggler/Nemeth at the time, so to us it was just some developmental wrestler we didn't know much about. While it appeared like WWE was going to push White a bit, it wasn't a sustained push. His only PPV match was at Unforgiven 2005 when he lost to Shelton Benjamin. The gimmick ended in November of 2005 when Chavo's uncle Eddie Guerrero passed away and WWE felt like he should go back to being Chavo instead of a ridiculous gimmick like Kerwin White. It was the right move. There's no telling how far Nick Nemeth could have went as the caddy of Kerwin White, but we do know it's a time in Ziggler's career that WWE wants us to forget.
