Let's take a closer look at five things we learned from former WWE Superstar Johnny Jeter's Sportskeeda interview.
#5 Johnny Jeter praises former Spirit Squad teammate Dolph Ziggler for his incredible WWE career
Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler is the only remaining member of the Spirit Squad under contract with WWE today.
Despite what many perceived to be a "career-killing" gimmick with the Spirit Squad, Ziggler has been able to rise and be a WWE Superstar for over 15 years.
When asked about Ziggler's career, Johnny Jeter was quick to praise his former teammate:
"Oh man, Dolph is just killing it and I'm so proud of him. I think it was tough when we were up there because it was very cutthroat and maybe it's till like that today, I'm not sure. I just remember being up there and I knew 90% of the locker room because a lot of them came from Ohio Valley [Wrestling], all of us did we were like a big fraternity. But you always felt like you were walking on eggshells up there because there's no guarantees up there. To me it almost felt like we were cattle."
Jeter even admitted that whilst people knew Ziggler was going to be successful, the current SmackDown star managed to exceed everyone's expectations:
"I think Nemeth just blew all the naysayers away. I think everyone knew that he was going to have a successful career. But I don't think anyone anticipated or expected him to do what he's doing today. He's just phenomenal."
