A graduate of Kent State University, Ziggler majored in Political Science, with a minor in pre-law. Never one to be tied down, Ziggler also wrestled collegiately, setting what was then the record for most career wins in the team's history.

In fact, Ziggler is so smart, that he was accepted into law school at Arizona State University, but had his WWE tryout before the first semester. Joining the WWE in 2005, Ziggler originally worked as the caddy of Kerwin White, before being a member of the Spirit Squad, before finally finding himself in 2008 as Dolph Ziggler.
