There is always talk of a wrestler possibly not renewing their deal and heading to another company, or being fired, or something like that. The most recent rumor has to do with one of the big talents in WWE and a former World Heavyweight Champion possibly heading to TNA, but would Dolph Ziggler really do it?
While there has been no official word from Ziggler or WWE about any of this, it is the big rumor.
Former WWE creative team member Court Bauer was recently on MLW Radio and said that he believes The Showoff is heading to TNA. Bauer said that “Dolph’s deal is up in a few months, and he has indicated – informally – that unless he gets a big push, he may leave like Mundo.”
The “Mundo” he is speaking of is Johnny Mundo, aka John Morrison in WWE.
Adding some more fuel to the fire is that a person claiming to be a former TNA employee hopped on Twitter over the weekend and said the same thing. A conversation was going on and he said that he knows Ziggler will definitely leave WWE once his contract is up.
“I know for a fact Dolph is TNA bound. It’s been in motion for months now.”
Some back and forth continued and the so-called former TNA employee said that Ziggler has been talking about it. He said that Ziggler has wanted to go to TNA and will not be signing another deal with WWE.
Some sources within WWE have said that this is not the case at all. They said that Ziggler is not heading to TNA once his current deal expires and that all signs are pointing to him re-signing with the company.
Of course, these rumors have gained a lot of ground in the past couple of days, and they even got back to Dolph Ziggler himself. He decided to respond to one fan on Twitter, and actually joked about it.

Sure, anything is possible in the world of wrestling, and the rumors are always swirling through the air. For instance, WWE is said to be interested in three top Ring Of Honor talents right now, but unless something happens, then nothing’s happening.
Dolph Ziggler heading to TNA Wrestling isn’t totally out of the question, but it doesn’t look as if anything is going on right now. For him to leave WWE, it would have to be a pretty big deal from TNA, but first, his contract has to expire.
