He goes out there and leaves it all in the ring: Natalya praises Dolph Ziggler's work in WWE
Natalya went on to praise Dolph Ziggler by calling him one of the greatest WWE Superstars that has been in the company. According to Natalya, Dolph Ziggler never slacked off and always put his heart and soul into every match.
"I think Dolph Ziggler is one of the greatest WWE Superstars that has ever been in our company. I watch every performance that he has, and Dolph is a friend of mine, but I'm speaking from my heart, like, I'm friends with pretty much everybody at work (laughs), to an extent, but when I watch Dolph perform, every single match, he pours his heart into. He never phones it in."
The Showoff reminded Natalya of many legendary WWE Superstars, notably Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. Natalya added that while Ziggler had elements of several performers from the past, the Showoff was still modern in his approach and very relatable.
"He goes out there and leaves it all in the ring, and he really is somebody that reminds me of; he reminds me a lot of my favorites from the past. He has an element of Bret Hart to him. He has an element of Shawn Michaels to him. He has an element of like a beloved old-time wrestler from our past, and he has so many of those great qualities, but he is also so modern. He is really relatable. He is hip. He is awesome. He is awesome in the ring. He is really, really good. So, I would say Dolph Ziggler is one of the people I would expect to win the men's, Royal Rumble."
