Why didn't WWE resign Ziggler?
>>
since jericho is not coming to saudi, dolph will be one of the "surprise" returns for the rumble to calm the smarks
>>
>>19668060
They better not just make him Nic Nemeth like they did with Cardona, I want Ziggler's theme again
>>
>>19666784
i think his TNA deal is longer term than most of their other contracted wrestlers, i'm pretty sure he said it's up later this year

>>19668071
i could deal with his name being nic nemeth but he has to use the ziggler theme, it would be beyond moronic to change it to his new shitty theme
>>
>>19666784
He wanted to leave years before he actually did.
Lighter schedule and he's made a lot.
>>
>>19668310
I think he has enough value that he could go back to the fed on a light schedule
or TKO just buys TNA
>>
>>19668310
I wish he had left sooner, like 2016 to 2019. He's one of those names that every wrestling fan knows, so he's perfect for the big fish in a small pond effect that TNA is known for.
>>
>>19668361
if he left in 2016 or 2017 he could have done the cody thing, he waited too long though
>>
>>19666784
TNA needs stars. They can’t poach everyone from that company if the intention is to make them the number 2 company.
>>
>>19666784
He doesn't have a wife already on the payroll
>>
>>19668387
considering the amount of money Vince was paying him to stay i dont blame him
>>
>>19668463
I don't blame him either. It's good that he's not a self-mark who feels too good for the midcard. It's just a shame to see a talented wrestler not see his worth and try to strike it big.
>>
>>19668387
I've always thought this too. He wouldn't have been as big as Cody but he would've raised his stock a lot
>>

He tried to get out of his contract in 2019 after the Goldberg match, even had a handshake deal with Vince. But then Vince went back on it.
>>
>>19668495
Full story? Why did he decide to leave then? Where did he want to go? Why did Vince agree and then change his mind?
>>
>>19666784
One, two, three. FUCK DOLPH ZIGGLER.
>>
>>19668755
NTA but vince seems to have frequently promised people things verbally even if he didn't intend to honor them. in 2019 specifically, there was purportedly this handshake deal to let ziggler go, and he also apparently reached an agreement with punk to return to WWE that also never went through. later he also told danielson he'd let him do the G1 if he stayed in WWE but there was no shot that was happening either.
i think in 2019 vince would have been wary about any of his over wrestlers leaving for AEW. that's why i think if he tried to leave 2 or 3 years earlier, he'd've had an easier time. vince wouldn't have cared if he wanted to be mr TNA 2017 or go wrestle kenny in japan then.

source?
>>
>>19666784
He wanted to leave. He's old and rich and just wants to hang out with his brother.

I forgot about the FOX show thing. Imagine how crazy it would have been for Punk to return unannounced and win the rumble. He would have been a lot younger too.

Vince hasn’t had any power over WWE since 2005, it’s been hhh and Stephanie since then outside of the small window that those 2 were pushed out
