Alliance with Kerwin White; Spirit Squad (2005–2006)

Nemeth made his main roster television debut on the September 25, 2005, episode of

Sunday Night Heat.[17] He was made the enforcer and sidekick for Chavo Guerrero Jr., who was using a golfer in-ring persona and going by the ring name of "Kerwin White".[9] As such, Nemeth became White's caddie.[9] His wrestling debut came on an episode of Sunday Night Heat, teaming up with White in a tag team match against Shelton Benjamin and Matt Striker.[18][19] After the death of Eddie Guerrero, Chavo Guerrero dropped the "Kerwin White" character, and Nemeth no longer played the role of his caddie and tag partner. After a few months of wrestling in dark matches and at house shows, he was sent back to OVW.[9]

Nemeth became a part of the Spirit Squad faction, a group of five wrestlers who used the in-ring personas of male cheerleaders, and adopted the name Nicky in OVW during late 2005.[9] The Spirit Squad members trained with real cheerleaders and gymnasts to ensure their characters were believable.[20] On January 23, 2006, they had their WWE television debut as a group, appearing on Raw and helping Jonathan Coachman win a Royal Rumble qualifying match against Jerry "The King" Lawler by performing cheers for Coachman and distracting Lawler.[21] They later became a part of the ongoing scripted feud between WWE chairman Vince McMahon and Shawn Michaels. The heel McMahon brought in the Squad to attack Michaels on numerous occasions, including placing them in multiple handicap matches.[22][23]

They also wrestled in the tag team division, and on April 3, on Raw, won the

Freebird Rule.[9]

At the same time as their feud with DX and their alignment with McMahon, the Squad also wrestled other teams in Raw's tag division over their World Tag Team Championship, successfully defending the championship against the teams of Jim Duggan and Eugene, Charlie Haas and Viscera, and Snitsky and Val Venis.[29] They then entered a lengthy feud with The Highlanders, whom they eventually defeated to retain the championship at the Unforgiven pay-per-view on September 17.[32][33] The Squad as a whole later began a losing streak with separate members losing singles matches to Ric Flair on consecutive episodes of Raw, until Kenny managed to defeat him on the October 23 episode.[34][35][36][37][38] It was then announced that Flair and a WWE legend, selected by interactive voting, would wrestle the team for the World Tag Team Championship at Cyber Sunday.[38] The fans chose Roddy Piper, and he and Flair defeated Kenny and Mikey to win the championship at the event on November 5.[39]

The group disbanded on the November 27 episode of Raw, when they were defeated in a five-on-three handicap match by DX and Flair. In a backstage segment later that night, DX placed all members into a crate stamped "OVW, Louisville, Kentucky", a reference to the developmental territory from which the Squad had come.[40]

Nemeth returned to OVW on January 17, 2007, at the television tapings, again using his Nick Nemeth ring name, along with Mike Mondo, formerly Mikey in the Spirit Squad, as the "Frat Pack". The pair teamed with Mike Kruel in a match against Seth Skyfire,

Shawn Spears, and Cody Runnels.[41][unreliable source?] The team disbanded in the early parts of 2007.[42] Nemeth then competed in several dark matches before the OVW television tapings, competing against several wrestlers including Chris Cage, Bradley Jay and Jake Hager, before he began teaming with Mondo again in August.[43][44][45][46]

At the end of August 2007, Nemeth and Mike Mondo were moved to the

FCW Florida Tag Team Championship by defeating defending champions Eddie Colón and Eric Pérez, but lost the championship to Colón and Pérez on April 15.[13][48] Throughout April and May 2008, Nemeth wrestled in several dark matches prior to Raw, losing to Kofi Kingston and Ron Killings on several occasions.[citation needed] Soon after, he returned to the name "Nic Nemeth", and began teaming with Gavin Spears.[citation needed] The pair defeated Colón and Pérez to win the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship on August 16, but lost it to Heath Miller and Joe Hennig less than a month later.[49]

on October 26 against Cesaro in a 2-out-of-3 falls match.

Dolph Ziggler, the 2011 winner... has been the victim of as many stop-and-start pushes of anyone in history. The crowds always get behind him for the start, no matter how many false teases there are, and then a few weeks later, the company always takes him back down.

On the October 28, 2014, episode of Raw, Ziggler and

They've 50/50ed the roster to death to the point where no one is over. Dolph Ziggler's character is dead. He used to get a great pop coming out, but now the fans are conditioned to know that he's gone as far as he'll ever go, so they sit on their hands when his music hits now.

— —Mike Tedesco, writing for WrestleView.com in 2015, describing Ziggler's slump into irrelevance[194]

Rusev, when she kissed him at Raw on May 25, with Lana serving as Ziggler's valet during his matches.[195][196] In June, after Ziggler and Lana confirmed their storyline relationship, Summer Rae allied with Rusev to even the odds.[197][198] After an attack by Rusev, Ziggler suffered a bruised trachea in storyline,[199][200] which was to give him some time off to film a new WWE Studios movie, titled 6:42.[201] While Ziggler and Risev match at SummerSlam ended in a double countout due to interference from Lana and Rae,[202][203] Ziggler won the rematch at Night of Champions,[204][205][206] but the storyline was cancelled after TMZ reported the real–life engagement of Rusev and Lana.[207][208]

Ziggler believed that fans only cared about elaborated entrances, and not about the in-ring performances, where he claimed he was the best. This led to a feud with Bobby Roode, being defeated by him at Hell in a Cell on October 8, but at Clash of Champions on December 17, he defeated Baron Corbin and Roode in a triple threat match to win his second United States Championship.[246] On the following episode of SmackDown on December 19, Ziggler held a celebration that was a retrospective of his WWE career; he said that the fans did not deserve him and placed the title belt in the ring before leaving.[247] A week later, general manager Daniel Bryan vacated the title.[248]

Professional wrestling style and persona

Sports Illustrated described Nemeth as "phenomenal in the ring, with the ability to carry an entertaining match with practically anyone on the WWE roster" and added that his "mic work is top-notch... and there is a genuine believability in his work".[319] He is also noted for his "elite" ability to sell for his opponents.[320] Jim Cornette praised Nemeth and stated, "I knew he was a good athlete, [but] I never dreamed he was going to be the second coming of Curt Hennig."[321]

Nemeth's most commonly utilized

reverse STO named Blonde Ambition.[13][49] Due to his athleticism and intense showmanship, Nemeth has been referred to as "The Showstealer" and "The Showoff",[329][330] while in his earlier career he was referred to as "The Natural".[9][331] Upon teaming with Vickie Guerrero, he was nicknamed either "Blonde Ambition" or "Blonde Perfection".[332] Consequently, his theme music was named "I Am Perfection" during this period of his career, while later on it was changed to "Here to Show the World."[329]

In the early stages of his career, Nemeth was introduced to the audiences as a sidekick with a

FCW Florida Tag Team Championship once each.[13][49] In a 2020 interview, Nemeth voiced amusement as well as creative frustration towards his early gimmicks, stating that he tried to make them work, knowing they could only fail, just to break through in professional wrestling.[329]

By 2008, Nemeth was repackaged as Dolph Ziggler, a bleached-blonde and self-absorbed

narcissist. Debuting as a heel, Ziggler repeatedly declared himself as "perfection" and would display an extremely arrogant attitude, while at the same time using dirty tactics. When he turned face in 2013, his character shifted towards a man out to prove himself and never giving up. In September 2017, Ziggler would begin a new short-lived gimmick where he would come out to the entrance themes and dress as other popular wrestlers and legends to irritate the crowd.[334] After that, his gimmick tweaked towards a whiny heel who believed he was destined for greatness, constantly blaming his bad luck or others for his lack of opportunity and would always come up short, culminating in his feud with Kofi Kingston in 2019, where he would blame Kingston (and later Drew McIntyre) for stealing his chance to become WWE champion while stating "it should've been me".[273][274]

Stand-up comedy

Nemeth grew up as a fan of comedians such as

Sarah Tiana.[337] In July 2018, he appeared on Comedy Central's Roast Battle III to face off against Tiana.[338]

In 2018, Nemeth started seriously moonlighting as a stand-up comedian while still wrestling for WWE.[339] This led to him headlining shows close to the arenas for the 2018 SummerSlam and Survivor Series pay-per-views; he used the big WWE events to piggyback on for his first major shows, due to there being a lot of wrestling fans in the area.[340] Following the 2019 Royal Rumble event, he embarked on his first headlining tour from the end of January to the end of March. He took a break from WWE television to focus on the tour.[269] He later continued the tour, announcing two shows in Texas taking place in late May.[341]

In other media

Ziggler appeared on the November 3, 2009, episode of

Silent Library alongside Chris Masters, Trent Baretta, JTG, Caylen Croft, and Curt Hawkins.[344] Nemeth made regular appearances on fellow WWE wrestler Zack Ryder's YouTube
web series, Z! True Long Island Story, via his own segment named 'Ask Z Heel'.

On February 1, 2012, Nemeth debuted WWEFanNation's WWE Download and was the host of the YouTube series. The official WWE Download playlist on YouTube[345] described the series as "Dolph Ziggler's sarcastic wit vs. your videos" and each episode consisted of Ziggler reviewing both viral and WWE videos. A new episode of WWE Download was uploaded every Monday until the show ended on January 28, 2013, after 53 episodes but returned for one time only on September 30, 2014. In August 2013, Nemeth was cast by Max Landis to appear in the 2015 film Me Him Her.[346]

In 2016, Nemeth would appear in a series of ads advertising

squash match
.

Nemeth began appearing on the Fox Business Network program Kennedy hosted by Lisa Kennedy Montgomery in 2017. As of 2018, he has appeared on the show 6-8 times.[349]
