Nic Nemeth (Dolph Ziggler) made his TNA Wrestling debut at the Hard To Kill 2024 pay-per-view event this past weekend, attacking Moose and putting the entire locker room on notice.
In a recent interview with TNA, Nemeth declared that he would also work independent shows in addition to dates for TNA and NJPW. He said,
“Of course, yeah. I’m gonna bounce around. I said I was very fortunate when I announced that I was, actually I didn’t announce it. WWE announced it. The outpouring, it wasn’t just congrats. It was, ‘Can we get you here?’ I’m very fortunate, and I was in a little bubble because I always just did with this one company. I never got to see it for myself or go with another company, or just fly myself to Japan. I’m doing all these things, and it’s really exciting because I didn’t really have a chance in the last 20 years. I was focused on some other things. I go, this is so exciting for me that I want to bounce around. You’re gonna see me on the independents. You’re gonna see me showing up. I’m hitting Puerto Rico this weekend and bouncing around. I hope I can make that work to where it’s like, I show up somewhere, everybody’s better because I was there, and now you want to come back next time because you know I’m coming back again. I want to do that in as many places as I can, and there’s a million people out there that I want to get in the ring with, and it’s gonna be a special year or two before we even start it over again. I’m really looking forward to it.”
Nemeth was released from his WWE contract in September 2023, following a nearly twenty-year run with the company.
