Welcome to the Busted Open podcast. This is Dave Legreca on today's podcast two, not one, but two in studio interviews. First, we have the returning Dov Ziegler, known on Busted Open as Nick Nemeth right here after his big return to the WWE in Madison Square Garden on Monday Night

Raw. Also, your NXT women's champion, Tatum Paxley. All that right now on the Busted

Open Podcast. This is the busted open podcast. I think today is the one day we can get away with calling him, Dolf Mother Truck and Ziegler.

I'll allow it today legally.

I mean, I'm not going to sue you guys.

All right.

So, Nick, let me ask you to start off.

Boxer briefs.

How was your night as Dolph Ziegler in Madison Square Garden?

Insanely fun and awesome and cool.

I had a hideout all day, which was fun.

In 20 years, I got to watch so many people hide or hide under the

ring or sit on a bus somewhere. I never got to do the hiding. So I had all black on and I put

like a ski mask over my face and sunglasses and they pulled me into the loading dock inside of the

building. And then I got walked in and I got to hide out for like five or six hours. But once someone comes and visits you, then a couple more people comes to visit you, and then my brother goes, oh, I just found out online, and it's official that it's you. And I'm like, okay, great. So it took a solid hour of people poking their head into wave to, like, put it online somewhere in some journalists, or

quotes. But, like, it was awesome. I, uh, the in-between for a lot of stuff was Bob Rude, who was

a badass wrestler, and we got to tag together, and he's the agent, he's, he's, he's even better

at agenting than he is in the ring and he's still jacked and awesome

and great.

So it was so cool to have him like going back and forth between him before we figured

everything out.

Surreal moment.
