Various: Dolph Ziggler’s Status, Paige Movie Complete, Impact + NJPW

Dolph Ziggler’s Status

On SmackDown Live this week, Dolph Ziggler laid his newly won United States Championship in the ring, said that the people did not deserve him, and he left.

Though there have been rumors that Ziggler’s time with WWE may be winding down soon, it doesn’t appear to be imminent. Ziggler is expected to be kept off of TV for a bit to sell this new angle though, according to PWInsider. However, he is still currently scheduled for upcoming house shows, for now.

Fighting With My Family

Director Stephen Merchant posted that the Paige movie, “Fighting With My Family” is complete (including post-production) and to stay tuned for release date information.

Well, that’s done then. Thanks to cast, crew and everyone who helped make FIGHTING WITH MY FAMILY. It’s a funny, emotional, uplifting film. Stay tuned for updates on when you can see it.
