Fans are not amused by the idea of a former WWE Superstar signing with AEW. The star in question is Nic Nemeth, fka Dolph Ziggler.
The 43-year-old star contributed to the Stamford-based promotion for nearly two decades. He was released by the promotion in 2023, ending his 19-year career. Since his departure, rumors of Ziggler joining WWE's rival promotion AEW started floating around.
Many fans are wondering what his potential role could be in the promotion if All Elite President Tony Khan decides to sign him. A pitch for the former Intercontinental Champion was to be a client of CJ Perry.
