[Cool King]

Sky Sports did and interview with Dolph Ziggler on Wednesday if anyone is interested in reading it.

skysports.com: Hi Dolph, You and the rest of the WWE roster are touring the United Kingdom next month. What do you love to do when you are over here? DOLPH ZIGGLER: I love coming over and seeing the fans because we only get to do it once or twice a year. It's also cool checking out a pub, or a soccer game and seeing the sights and sounds that we don't get in the States. Plus, I like English food, especially your fried breakfasts. I wish American breakfasts incorporated beans. skysports.com: Because of the way you look and your entrance music, you often get compared to WWE Hall of Famer, Mr Perfect. Do enjoy that? DZ: I always appreciate being compared to a WWE Hall of Famer and someone I looked up to as a child; it's a great compliment. But, at the same time, it is a little frustrating when you're trying to forge your own path and you're constantly told: "You remind me of this guy". skysports.com: Apart from Mr Perfect, which other wrestlers influenced you as a child? DZ: I loved Ric Flair. I loved Shawn Michaels. They were both ring generals and stole the show every night. Shawn was a big influence on me when I got to the WWE, too. Before he left, he helped me out mentally and with some different things in the ring. He always went out to steal the show and make his mark, and he told me I had to do the same every single night. But he also said to make sure I did things my own way and to stand out from the pack. skysports.com: X-Men star Hugh Jackman punched you on Raw recently. What was he like to work with and would you like to face him in a legitimate match? DZ: He was great all day, shaking everyone's hands saying hello. But then on Raw he decided to punch me and my jaw still hurts. It makes me want to get him in the ring again and show him how good I am at what I do. It's easy to punch someone from outside the ring, it's a lot more difficult to do it in a match environment - especially against someone as good as me. skysports.com: You had a match with Daniel Bryan at Bragging Rights in late 2010 that was widely regarded as a Match of the Year contender. Do you know how good a bout is while you're in the midst of it? DZ: You know you're part of something special when you hear the crowd reacting. We weren't really involved in a big feud so for the audience to be that involved in our match, and feeling exactly what we were doing, was special. It was amazing to be part of. skysports.com: Which WWE Superstars' matches do you like to watch when you're not competing? DZ: John Cena is usually in the main event and his matches are always great to watch because the crowd gets so into it. I also make sure I watch a lot of Zack Ryder matches; he's a good kid and is really coming into his own. skysports.com: You have appeared on Ryder's YouTube show, Z! True Long Island Story. Do you enjoy doing things like that? Do you have any plans to act? DZ: I always love entertaining, whether that's through matches or talking. On Ryder's show, I get 35-40 seconds to talk about whatever I want and it's really fun. As for the acting, if I could make a film that would help take WWE to a wider audience, it's something I'd do in a heartbeat. skysports.com: Your brother, Ryan, is in WWE's developmental system. How long do you think it will be before we see him on Raw or SmackDown? DZ: You never know. We work for a company that is always unpredictable. It could be weeks, months or years. I keep getting told he's working really hard and I've told him to make sure he works harder than everybody else. Hopefully he'll make it. He's a similar style wrestler to me but obviously has a couple of years less experience and is a bit skinnier. skysports.com: And finally, the NFL recently kicked off its new season. Which team do you follow? DZ: I always root for the Cleveland Browns. They are always the underdogs fighting an uphill battle. They almost get to the play-offs but never quite make it. Hopefully this will be the year. My favourite Browns player of all time is quarterback Bernie Kosar, but right now we don't really have many stars; we're an up-and coming team.
