Dolph Ziggler, a familiar name in the wrestling world, primarily known for his time in WWE, has taken a significant step in his career post-WWE.

Following his appearance, Ziggler confronted David Finlay after Finlay’s IWGP Global Championship win. Ziggler then took to Twitter to release a promo video, unveiling his new gimmick.
