Dolph Ziggler Now Saying He Has NOT Signed A New WWE Contract

The back and forth on if Dolph Ziggler has signed a new WWE contract this past weekend. Just this past weekend, The Boston Herald asked him about re-signing with the company, to which replied, "I mean, it feels like I started here, I should end my career in the WWE. I feel like they like having me around and I love working here, so it would be really hard to walk away."

However, during an appearance on The Chad Dukes Wrestling Show today, Ziggler said that he has not finalized a contract with the company.

"I'm thinking about it right now," Ziggler said of a new contract. "I had a request for an upcoming contract that would end a few months from now, maybe two or three months from now, and they requested back what they would like, I countered another offer and we're waiting to finalize some things. I love WWE and I can't picture myself wrestling somewhere else but it's also becoming now where that Wednesday and Thursday, I can't just do that and get some outside live events for comedy and different movie and television options, which would only be to promote myself as a WWE superstar, to make myself a bigger star so I can advance more in WWE. So if I can't find that happy medium, I might have to go away for a little bit."

Ziggler was also asked if he would be leaving the company because of his lack of push.

"If you're thinking about re-signing a contract in a business you love, do not google people's comments about it," Ziggler said. "Demanding a push, demanding world titles, demanding things, what I demand is to be challenged in the ring every week and when I do it, I do it better than anyone else. You can debate that you don't like the way I sell, you don't like the way I talk, you don't like the way I dress, you don't like my name, but here's the deal: somehow the 5'11" guy with the funny name and funny trunks has outlasted everybody else in 11 years here and hasn't gone away. Even when I had a concussion I was backstage filming, from my house with my concussion and being on the app at that point. I've never been out and very fortunate with any injuries, being injury prone or anything. I've sat out less than anyone I can think of in 10 years."

"What I wanna do is make myself a bigger asset to WWE. If it involves leaving, that would crush me but it might."
