ZIGGLER COMMENTS ON WWE STATUS

By Mike Johnson on 2015-06-29 17:08:04
Dolph Ziggler appeared on this afternoon's "Chad Dukes Versus The World" on 106.7 The Fan in Washington DC, commenting that his WWE deal isn't done. PWInsider heard from WWE sources last week that the two sides had completed a new deal.

During the appearance, Ziggler commented, "I'm thinking about it right now. I had a request for an upcoming contract that would end a few months from now, maybe two or three months from now, and they requested back what they would like, I countered another offer and we're waiting to finalize some things. I love WWE and I can't picture myself wrestling somewhere else but it's also becoming now where that Wednesday and Thursday, I can't just do that and get some outside live events for comedy and different movie and television options, which would only be to promote myself as a WWE superstar, to make myself a bigger star so I can advance more in WWE. So if I can't find that happy medium, I might have to go away for a little bit. What I wanna do is make myself a bigger asset to WWE. If it involves leaving, that would crush me but it might."

The comments would also be at odds with a statement made over the weekend to The Boston Herald about signing a new deal.
