Dolph Ziggler spoke to the The Democrat Tribune this week to promote WWE’s live event this Sunday from the Convocation Center in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Here are some highlights of what he said about:
Why he chose to be a wrestler: “My dad took to me an event and I saw Hulk Hogan wrestle Harley Race and I told him that night this is what I wanted to do.”
Staying motivated: “There are days when you don’t feel good, you may be a little banged up or you’ve had 10 flight delays in the same day. If I was a fan sitting in the audience, I’d be disappointed if a top star didn’t wrestle. I want to give the fans a great show so I leave everything that may be bothering me in the dressing room, go out and give the show they want to see and then come back and deal with things that may have had be feeling down.”
Developing His Character On Twitter: “I try out new material on my Twitter followers and it’s a lot of fun. I can bring a witty side to the WWE if needed and that can lead to a television spot out the ring or to a movie part, just more to bring attention to the WWE.”
Kofi Kingston: “Kofi Kingston and I have a good ongoing feud right now. We have been battling for the Inter-Continental and the United State titles the last couple months. We have totally different styles but we somehow compliment each other in ring.”
