Dolph Ziggler on Rumors Surrounding His Absence From WWE TV, Charitable Work During SummerSlam Week

WWE Smackdown Live star Dolph Ziggler, who returned to WWE television last night, recently spoke with Channel Guide Magazine (before his return last night), and below are some interview highlights:

On WWE’s charitable work during big week’s like SummerSlam:

“It’s very cool,” he said shortly after joining fellow coworkers to surprise a group of Make-A-Wish children and their families at the One World Observatory in New York City. “The kids have got some great questions because some of them are really hardcore fans. I don’t always have the right answer for them. But just seeing the looks on their faces and knowing they are having a good time. That we can hang out for a few minutes, it’s very special.”

On rumors surrounding his absence from WWE TV prior to his return last night:

“There is all this talk out there about me being repackaged. I don’t think I’m doing that,” he said.

“It’s nice to take a little break and come back fresh. Not matter when or no matter what I’m doing, I think it will be nice. I’ve only missed a handful of weeks of work. After a while you just want to step out. People talking is fine. People are talking about you, so that’s a great thing. Some people’s jobs are to speculate. So, I can understand that. I’m still excited to be in the ring. I still do the live events and have a blast. I’ve been working with the likes of Nakamura, which has been really fun.”
