During his recent visit to the ‘Busted Open Radio’ podcast, ex-WWE superstar Nic Nemeth, widely recognized as Dolph Ziggler, gave his thoughts on the ongoing narrative between Swerve Strickland, AEW’s reigning world champion, and Will Ospreay. They are set to clash at the AEW x NJPW: Forbidden Door III event.
Here are some noteworthy excerpts from the podcast:
Discussing Swerve Strickland versus Will Ospreay he stated, “I want more than just the knowledge that they’re skilled wrestlers and that it will be a great match. Sell me on the higher stakes involved that make it a must-watch spectacle. The back-and-forth and the intensity are positives and I’m inclined to think that in the end, Ospreay might emerge the winner, he seems to be the man for it.”
On the narrative escalating beyond just personal stakes, he said, “It should exceed the boundaries of a personal feud, reminiscent of my bouts with Miz or Zack Ryder, where you could be a bit more aggressive verbally, bring up subjects others couldn’t broach…I don’t appreciate when it’s just about who is the best wrestler in the world. I despise that rhetoric.”
