- According to a post on Reddit by user metsfan4Ever, a WWE insider who has broken and revealed some backstage news in the past, the reason Dolph Ziggler was booked to lose the Intercontinental title on Raw was because of a comedy gig he had booked at Second City Hollywood outside of his WWE commitments. Ziggler also does stand-up comedy work and is pursuing opportunities doing improv and stand-up comedy.

User metsfan4ever said Ziggler’s comedy gig was “a main reason why he dropped the I.C. title on Raw.”

Well that's a stupid reason for him to lose the title. Can the man not have a life outside the WWE?

I don't believe that to be true.

That...is complete bullshit.

He lost it because it was part of a storyline, to which he got fired later the same night.

I want to see Ziggler's stand-up >_>.

Glad I'm not the only one who saw that this was bullshit. Metsfan4life should stop being quoted on for 'news articles', he's been inaccurate wayyyy more than he has been accurate and idiots will actually believe some of the shit he says in articles.
