WWE superstar Dolph Ziggler wants host his own late night talk show with Renee Young on the WWE Network.
The 35-year-old star is one of the most exciting competitors on World Wrestling Entertainment's flagship TV show "RAW" but away from the ring he has tried his hand at comedy and acting, reported Femalefirst.
Now he wants to launch his own chat show with WWE interviewer Renee Young on the WWE Network, which would show off his humour and see the pair tackling celebrity guests.
"I'm an entertainer. I've been writing stand-up material for 20 years. Any time I get a day off, which is maybe 40/50 days a year, I find a way to go do stand-up or tell some jokes online, or go to an open mic at a coffee shop because I want to be the best I can possibly as an entertainer," said Ziggler.
"Someone who I really like working with at the WWE is Renee Young. We've actually pitched a couple different ideas for the Network to possibly have a late night talk show ... It would be great to be something along the lines of a Comedy Central show meets a late night talk show.
"Just something where we can have fun and use our improvisation skills and our training, and have a blast. I think we could start a great, entertaining show.
