Bio

Since making his debut on Raw, this aggressive young Superstar has made certain that every ring warrior on the roster knows his name.

For weeks leading up to his first match he would approach Superstars and Divas alike in the locker room area with what has became a familiar refrain: “Hi, I’m Dolph Ziggler.”

With his sculpted physique and cocky attitude, Ziggler gives off the aura of an athlete who knows exactly what he’s doing.

The young Superstar makes use of his impressive amateur wrestling background (during which he won more matches than anyone in Kent State University’s history) to ensure that for years to come the WWE Universe will remember the name of Dolph Ziggler.

In August 2010, with the help of SmackDown’s Official Consultant, Vickie Guerrero, Dolph Ziggler hit the Zig Zag on Kofi Kingston to capture his first Intercontinental Championship.

WWE’s resident cougar also played an instrumental role in Ziggler’s controversial (and short-lived) World Heavyweight Championship reign in February 2011.

Ziggler seldom refrains from letting the WWE Universe know how good he is, and much to his opponents’ chagrin, this arrogant competitor has the skill to back up his boasts.

Breakdown

Dolph Ziggler, despite his glistening white mullet, is a force to contend with in the ring. He’s fast and agile, and he’s a well-rounded 87 Overall with no help from his 70 Tag Team rating. His Charisma has snuck up to 80, so he can store a second Finisher (awesome for defending in Royal Rumbles).

His Power ratings are only okay at 75, but his Grapple Defense is pretty good at 85. Use his pin abilites to sneak early pinfalls, and use Ring Escape and taunt to build momentum if you get in trouble.
