Cherished veteran Dolph Ziggler was a big bump-taking machine during his heyday in WWE. He won championships, made every opponent look like a million bucks, cut better promos than he was ever given praise for, and even turned his hand to some stand up comedy away from the ring.

Yep, Nick Nemeth has always been one talented dude.

It was a tad surprising to see someone with his tenure cut loose during the mass roster cull in September 2023. After all, Dolph had been on WWE's books for almost 20 full years, and most reasoned he'd be a company lifer until his body gave out.

Nope, he's a free agent now.
