WWE Hall Of Famer Ric Flair says former World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler should be given more credit by the company but says Ziggler “knows how good he is.”
The 16-time champion of the world made the claim during an episode of his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast. Flair says he believes everything WWE had ever given Ziggler to do, The Show Off has made a success of:
“He’s taken every role they’ve given him and made it successful. He’s had a 20-year career, made lots of money, saved his money, on top of the world, and doesn’t give a sh*t. He knows he’s better than they give him credit for.”
“He’s another example of a guy that is great when he wants to be. Don’t think that Dolph can’t yank a guy around if he wants to. He’s happy, that’s the most important thing. He goes home happy at night. He’s not stressed out because he knows how good he is.”
During the podcast, Ric Flair also laid into former WWE Champion Seth Rollins for admitting that a recent fan attack on Raw was “terrifying.” Flair said that if the fand had done to Dolph Ziggler what they did to Seth Rollins, the outcome would be very different:
“If that mark at jumped out at him instead of Seth Rollins, that mark would have been stretched out, tied up, and brought to the ring. He would have stretched him, made him submit three times before he got back to the dressing room. He’s a tough kid.”
