In an interview with The Democrat Tribune, Dolph Ziggler spoke about what motivates him to perform in the ring. He also commented on a “feud” with Kofi Kingston, suggesting the interview is a little older than it was labeled as. Here are highlights:
On 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.”
On 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.”
On 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.”
