Nic Nemeth Reveals The Surprising Response Vince McMahon Had After His WWE World Title Win
Nic Nemeth revealed that Vince McMahon told him he would lose again after winning the WWE World champion. In 2013, on the WWE RAW episode following WrestleMania 29, Ziggler cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Alberto Del Rio, creating one of WWE's most memorable moments. The crowd erupted with the loudest ovation of the night as he captured the World Heavyweight Championship. During an appearance on LiMPiN AiNT EASY w/ Timmy Baltimore, Nic Nemeth explained that multiple bosses, including Vince McMahon, told him he would never become World Champion. 'I was told I'd never be world champion to my face by every boss that there is, and then became world champion. I was told that I wouldn't win Money in the Bank, and even when we're down to it, they said it'll be you or Cody, and that was the night before.'

Even then, once I got the briefcase. The boss goes, 'You're going to lose even more now, but it's going to mean so much more when you cash in.' 'All this bulls**t ends, and you become our guy.' I was like, Whoa. okay, cashed in, greatest freaking moment, came to the back. I thanked everybody and Vince. And then Michael Hayes goes, 'Hey, go tell him thank you.' I'm like, 'I did.' He goes, 'Do it again.' Vince McMahon told Nic Nemeth he would lose WWE World Title in few months 'Sir, thank you for this opportunity. I hope you heard that crowd. I'm here to do whatever the hell you want. I'm going to be your guy one way or another.' And it's something along the lines of, 'Yeah, you're just holding it for another month or two until we get Del Rio some sympathy, and then, uh, he's going to take it back.' And I went, 'Well,' I go, 'It looks like I got two months to prove you wrong, boss.' And he went, 'Okay,' and then put his headset back on.'

Nic Nemeth Hints At Archer Influencing His Finishing Move
Nic Nemeth recently hinted at his finisher being influenced by the animated series Archer. Since his WWE release in 2023, Nemeth, formerly known as Dolph Ziggler, has reinvented himself in TNA. As Ziggler, he primarily used the Zig Zag or Superkick as his finishing moves in WWE. Now in TNA, he has rebranded his move and calls his new finisher 'Danger Zone.' Advertisement While answering fan questions on Twitter/X, Nic Nemeth was asked if the name Danger Zone was inspired by Archer as a reference to one of the show's famous catchphrases. Nemeth replied with a simple yet teasing response: 'Perhaps…' For those unfamiliar, Archer is a popular animated spy comedy series that ran on FX for 14 seasons from 2009 to 2023. The show often uses the phrase 'Danger Zone' to reference main character Sterling Archer's love of the 1986 song by Kenny Loggins, impending danger, and it is used as a running gag with Archer's Lana Kane.
