WWE Superstar and former World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler talked about Kurt Angle being his inspiration in a recent interview.

“I’m not a bigger guy, so I told myself that if I could break some records in college, because of how good Kurt Angle was doing at the time with WWE, that I’d have a shot to get my foot in the door. I was lucky enough, I did well in college, they gave me a shot, they knew I was a fan and it all worked out.”

Ziggler has had a few forgettable weeks in the WWE as of late. He is scheduled to face U.S Champion Dean Ambrose for the title at Night Of Champions.
