Dolph Ziggler

Dolph Ziggler is an American professional wrestler

Dolph Ziggler Nicholas Theodore Nemeth (born July 27, 1980), better known by the ring name Dolph Ziggler, is an American professional wrestler, currently signed to WWE. In WWE, he performs on the Raw brand, where he is the current Intercontinental Champion in his sixth reign.

After a prolific Secondary school, high school and collegiate career in amateur wrestling, where he established several school records for his alma mater Kent State University, Nemeth signed a development contract with WWE in 2004, and was sent to Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), where he wrestled under his real name. He was brought up to the Raw brand shortly afterwards in 2005 as the caddy sidekick to Kerwin White. He was, however, sent back to OVW shortly afterwards, where he joined the cheerleading themed Spirit Squad as Nicky. They debuted on Raw in January 2006, and won the World Tag Team Championship once before returning to OVW that November. In September 2007, Nemeth was assigned to Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), where he won the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship twice, with Brad Allen and later Gavin Spears.

Upon his return to the main roster in September 2008, Nemeth was repackaged as Dolph Ziggler. Since then, he has found success in singles competition and has held the World Heavyweight Championship twice, the Intercontinental Championship six times and the United States Championship twice. He has also been the sole survivor of two Survivor Series elimination matches at the 2012 and 2014 events. Nemeth has headlined multiple pay-per-view cards in WWE.

On the April 16 episode of Raw, Ziggler was traded to Raw during the 2018 WWE Superstar Shake-up. Titus O'Neil and Apollo Crews offered Dolph a spot in Titus Worldwide, but he declined stating that he did not come to Raw alone; Drew McIntyre then came out of the crowd and the two attacked Titus Worldwide. The following week, Ziggler and McIntyre defeated Titus Worldwide in a tag team match. On the June 18 episode of Raw, Ziggler defeated Seth Rollins to win his sixth Intercontinental Championship. He retained the title in a rematch against Rollins the following week, losing via disqualification after McIntyre interfered. At Extreme Rules, Ziggler drew with Rollins in a 30-minute Iron Man match but retained the championship as the current champion. Ziggler & Rollins are scheduled to fight again at Summerslam for the Intercontinental Championship.
