Bro shoulda did this 10 years ago. Glad he’s doing it now. I hope he gets to finally live up to this full potential.
10 years ago he was world champ what are you on about why would he leaves
@@EthicalSoldja was a meanigless title run heavily forgettable
I see why Nic got accepted to Law school. The guy can talk for days, and he's so analytical and detail-oriented when it comes to ALL of his performances. I watched his debut as a member of the Spirit Squad when I was in elementary school and watched his whole career up until his release last fall.
I wish him the best in the future and hope he shows the world the superstar he truly is.
Nick is hands down one of the best performers in any promotion today. This man has earned his flowers
Underrated doesn't quite say it enough Nic has been So Great for so long My excitement is Through the roof
They killed it for him once they put him in the Spirit Squad
Nic is a class act
Then why did WWE fire him?
@@Tannerwhite12578use your brain to answer that stpid.
@@Tannerwhite12578 He requested his release to pursue new opportunities, and WWE granted his request.
@@Tannerwhite12578 Damn, that's a pretty dumb take.
@@Tannerwhite12578because it’s a business and now he can focus on having a better career outside wwf and return later on to be a main eventer in wwe ❤
I love his responses, always a great talker, well spoken and professional. He knows to promote himself and what he’s doing rather than bashing or talking down about anyone/anything. A true pro in the industry and I loved watching him in WWE. Excited to see what’s next.
They really dropped the ball with him. He's the best 🙌🙌
It's good for both ways. Nic needed a break and will be back to wwe after getting a breather.
No, they didn’t. He was good at putting guys over, and that’s what he did.
@@ParlorTattooProject then why was he ever WWE champion
@@dougschadel8094 not everyone gets to be champion.
@@ParlorTattooProject that makes no sense lol. They dropped the ball with Dolph he could have had a good run
Nic Nemeth is destined for great things outside of WWE.
nic is arguably one of the most beloved pro wrestler in history I think the level of love people have for him is almost like taker or cena love level
He earned that sheerly through hard work too. We were never meant to like Dolph Ziggler but it was undeniable that this guy looks like a million bucks in the ring. To this day I remember popping in my living room when he cashed in and won the world heavyweight championship. It's one of the more memorable moments of the last decade
I stopped watching the WWE years ago and I am slowly getting back into it, and I'm sad that Nic is no longer there. He was one of my favorite superstars, he absolutely shined at every big opportunity they gave him because he was so good in the ring and could work with anyone. Shawn Michaels was my all-time favorite wrestler growing up, and I know there are different levels to the game but Nic (or Dolph as I always knew him) reminded me of him in a way. All the best to him, I know he's going to shine somewhere else.
We all had the same reaction as Mark at 23:18 😂😂😂
NIC in NJPW is going to be insane.
In case of Emergency…
Break Glass.
Nick is One of the Best Today…
Nick is the Chris daniels of wwe. Both super underrated but put on some the best matches ever.
I'm extremely excited for him and for his fans
Once a year I rewatch the Survivor Series match where Nic stole the show and was the sole survivor for team Cena. I still can't believe he did not get a push after that performance.
That match was awesome and then they took him off tv and completely ruined his momentum. 😐
when Busted Open goes 24/7, Nic and his brother should have a show!
Great interview! I'm so glad Busted Open is on CZcams!
I was there with my cousin when he cashed in, MAAAN the career we both thought he would've had from that damn pop. It was INSANE
iam glad he does other stuff he deserves sooo freaking much more imo he is one of the most underrated and underappreciated wrestlers
Nic is a real athlete. He was a college athlete and scholar. Then has been a mainstay in pro wrestling for so many years.
NIC VS. OKADA!!!!
MAKE IT HAPPEN, NJPW! HOWEVER YOU NEED TO MAKE THAT STORY!!!
Thank you Ziggler for 20 years of wwe, totally unappreciated, you had so much talent, skill, and you deserved more titles, such a waste, though i know how much you deserve to be happy in your life, and now it's your turn to have your time in wrestling, i just hope they will put you in the Hall of fame, you deserve to have that from the wwe
One the most underrated wrestler by a mile, Miss seeing Mr Ziggler in WWE, wish him well on his new journey 🙏 goodluck Nick
Mikkie stills look great
Excited for his time in Japan
Thanks Nick for The 20 year's of dedication in wwe you deserved more, but you also deserve to be happier and im glad to see you do your own thing
Yall dont understand nic is about to go crazy on the indies idk how wwe fumbled nic but their loss is our gain
Great seeing nic in a different light
My most memorable Mark Henry match was the Elimination of 2013 where he tore his opponents out. I remember him being on fire and the crowd was roaring. This memory has always stuck to me. Little did I know that a lot of this match was improvised by Dolph Ziggler. Hearing Ziggler reflect on it makes that match even more special to me.
After being a Fan since 1983, I've grown to Love the "Out of Character" Conversations! Hats off To The Hall Of Famers and To Miss Mickie. Dave, You serve up a great BBQ, I'm glad to be here.
i was so pissed about that they never called him former world champion dolph ziggler. he was so underrated he wasnt given another title shot. i love shawn he reminds of him dolph is the new showstopper. im one of his biggest fans. im proud of him getting his shot.
Great interview! Nic is a class act, so humble respectful, enjoyed his time in WWE and super excited to see him shine in TNA now 😊
Never watched this podcast before but this one popped up for some reason. Glad I saw it and listened to it. Will be paying more attention to busted open
Dolph was always one of my favorites since I watch his first match as Ziggler vs Batista in 08.
That Survivor Series match where Dolph got the W and Sting made his WWE debut keeps popping up on socials and everytime I rewatch it & can't believe how they didn't push him to the moon after that?
Happy for him! I’ve been a long time Ziggler fan. I definitely wanna see him have his moment.
Nemeth Vs. Zach Sabre Jr !!!!
Box office!!
Shaping up to be great!!🔥
Nic, along with performers like Rusev, are classic examples of how many performers were wasted by Mr. McMahon over the past decade or so. Nic is his generation's Shawn Michaels. It's a shame that his potential was never realized.
Rusev is being wasted by AEW too. At some point you have to realize that maybe it wasn't Vince, maybe it was the wrestler.
@@madhatter8508 At some point you have to realize that it's not the wrestler, it's that there are not enough wrestling companies to divide all the talent and give everyone a chance. Obviously it's not Dolph Ziggler or Rusev, c'mon.
@@wolfkingAD No, at some point you have to realize that it's not the PROMOTER. If a wrestler fails in 109 promotions, it's not the promoters' fault. The WRESTLER is the common denominator.
@@wolfkingADis it the promoters fault if a wrestler refuses to take a loss? Like, never takes a loss.
God bless you in all your endeavors. Thank you so much for all great entertainment you've given us through the years. Whatever you do down the road will be great. Cheers 🍻
Good to see all of you on here! Good luck Nic, best wishes on future endeavors.
Thats the guy right there.
Hope that man grabs everything and then some his heart is set on.
*Show the World*
Dolph Ziggler is my favorite wrestler & I haha which hopes & I’m so excited for Nic Nemeth going forward 🤘
Nick better crush it in njpw
I'm glad Nic hasnt hung up the boots quite just yet. Dude definitely has plenty left in the tank and having a fresh start is good for him. He's done damn near everything there is to do in WWE. Wrestlerd nearly everyone. He's solid talent to have. Looking forward to whats next for him.
Letsssss goooooo new Nic interview
All seriousness, this talent has been buried by WWE in the good hand column for decades. That NJPW presentation, he looks the part. He could legit reinvent himself in a strong style format. NJPW has lost so many talents, not saying he could replace Osprey, but he could be a top Gaijin for the company if he wants to be and have rocking matches with the best wrestlers that company has and that company actually allows cross promotion matches he could still do every nonwwe related thing he wants to. Can't wait to see what he does next.
Nic is definitely 1 of the best wrestlers in the world been a fan since 2012 always has been my favorite wrestler
Nic got me exciting in wrestling again when he debuted as Ziggler. Looking forward to his next chapter
3 years ago today you won the tag titles with Roode
Dolph izz the man
Great interview
Nic is awesome and I love seeing the genuine Nic ❤
Also Nic Nemeth was also college wrestling teammates with former UFC Fighter Gray Maynard. If I recall correctly, they were even college roommates at one point
Nice interview
he seems like a super nice guy
Nic is a badass from a old 50 year fan from Memphis,good luck to you all
Mr. Nemeth, IMO, has always been super in the ring, I hope he flourishes 🤞 I really think the name had a lot to do with him not having high-level status. I mean, Dolph Ziggler. It's two gimmick names. He's already got a good name. Vince or one of his yes men must have seen Boogie Nights. Dirk Diggler 🙃
One of the better ones that The other company squanders away amazing Talent
There are a few names I would love to see vs Nic Nemteth. Will Ospreay, Kenny Omega, Kazuchika Okada, Tetsuya Naito, Kota Ibushi, Zack Sabre Jr and more.
I was at the cash in the day after mania. That feeling can never be topped!
Love Bully's take!
Wish him the best! He's truly amazing.
Nic is the man
Nic is about to become the TNA World Champion! He deserves it!
Dolph and John Morrison are the most underrated players in the game
So proud of Nick! I hope he ends up coming back to WWE in a few more years
Wwe hall of fame
No lol. They let him go and squandered everything he did. Go be Will Osprey equivalent
Few more as in a reunion when he's already stepped away from Wrestling. Then yes
@@russenterprise6502 For what lmao
His energy is so good!❤❤❤❤❤
This is the best show
Wwe 2k24 video game will be weird without Dolph Ziggler, but i wish him all the best on his next adventure
This was Dope. True Story, I told my Brother Nic should go to NJPW.. because he can go there and become a big fish. I'm happy for Nic. Everyone, I hope you all enjoy your weekend. 👏🔥☝️
Can’t w8 to see what he does, really excited❤
I agree with Bully Ray bc Dolph Ziggler is actually really great on wrestling
nic nemeth aka dolph ziggler so awesome on busted open podcast !!!
Go get em Nic!!
Miss dolph. Can’t believe they let him go
The only wrestler I've supported since the Hart brothers. Nic Nemeth is the best in the sport. With his mindset and work ethic, if he had gone military, he'd be a Tier One special operator.💗 Most Wanted Man
Triple Threat idea is interesting, it’s basically the face of the past, the face of the present, the face of the future. A long shot but could be satisfying
Nic is an IDOL ❤️
He gonna bigger than ever his brand gonna rocketship🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hopefully Nic will be in the WWE hall of fame, he deserves it.
WWE fumbled really bad with this man!
Give me Nic vs Jay White or Ospreay for 35 mins and I’ll be happy
NJP DUBZ LETS FUCKIN GO NICK ZIGGLER
One of my favorite performers of all time. Jordan had Kobe. HBK had Dolph Ziggler except they didn't use him correctly. Im excited to see Nic steal every show
I still believe man..!!
Hope dolph succeeds in his new journey
Mickie James is still so pretty, she has not aged
Mackey James ?
Mickie James?
Nic as Dolph Ziggler has always has the best and most beautiful matches of WWE. I feel its great he gets loose of WWE and go and do his greatest best. I never have understoot why he wasn't more pushed. He is better then most champions that are years at a title belt. Nic diserves to be in great matches. If the match is not great and he enters, he makes it great ;)
Nic/Dolph is just such a class act and entertaining guy man. Can’t wait for this next chapter, literally the best possible time in wrestling for this to happen lol.
Also, that Bully Ray fantasy-booking is terrible. Cody needs to WIN CLEAN at WrestleMania, and the most prestigious manner of doing so is a 1 on 1 match vs. Roman.
I hope NJPW get Nic and Osprey in the ring!! OMG!!! 😱
I want that WCW Rap is crap t shirt...old school baby
Anyone else wanna see the rest of Bubba's Rec area in his home? Looks awesome!
I fully expect him to be participating in FORBIDDEN DOOR against some AEW wrestler. Make it happen Nic.
Nic Nemeth vs. Minoru Suzuki, is a match I would love to see !!!
WWE Bring Back DOLPH
I know his singles run will be great no matter what. I am curious to see if him and his brother could carve a spot as a great brother tag team as well. The Nemeth Brothers vs FTR or the young bucks or lucha bros.
Dolph with a 80's Curt Russul action star like gimmik would be awsome!
THAT CLEVELAND BROWNS COAT
DAWG POUND
Dude Nic/Dolph would be fkn awesome in AEW. I think he would fit in perfectly there in a number of different roles.
