Dolph Ziggler Talks Amy Schumer's Sex Comments, Camaraderie In WWE, His Crazy Schedule
Dolph Ziggler spoke with Toucher and Rich of the CBS affiliate in Boston this morning. Here are a few highlights:
Camaraderie in WWE:
"I think a long time ago it was guys only looking out for themselves, getting stabbed in the back and stepped over. Now it's more of a group family trying to produce an amazing WWE show. That camaraderie is there. But when it comes to me, sometimes I travel with a small handful of people or by myself. And after a crazy show I'll do an awesome workout in the gym, do a four hour drive somewhere and just wanna crash in silence and not wanna see anybody for a couple hours."
An average day:
"If I didn't have media this morning I'd be working out. We were in Brooklyn last night for sold out Monday Night Raw and we were done at 11:30pm. We were on the road by 12 and maybe got here at like 3, 4 o' clock. I had a 6am wake up to do some media for a couple hours. I'll maybe catch a one hour nap, probably not. I'll get into work. We're always there way ahead of time and have the whole day to prepare, find a gym, workout and we'll be at the arena all night until Smackdown is over. It's a very busy day one way or another. The schedule never ends. There's no offseason. There's no breaks. It's great. It's nonstop and it's a little exhausting, but we are nonstop doing over 300 live events a year. We're always reaching out to another country. We're expanding globally everywhere. The fans keep coming out to support us so we add shows whenever we get a chance. That's why we're so busy. The outreach goes out to kids, families, grown ups. We have a great family show that we're very proud of. It's a little different than the era a few years ago. You can bring grandma and grandpa, so we're able to keep constantly adding shows and every year we do a few more."
His ex-girlfriend Amy Schumer's comments about their sex life:
"It was fine. I didn't care because it was mostly talking about how great I was. It was more being fun and a little complimentary. It was just weird that my mom was like, 'What does this mean?' and I was just like 'Ughhhhh.'"
