The line that usually separates WWE and AEW has been quite clear, but Dolph Ziggler is shaking things up a bit. The Show-Off surprised many by appearing with some big AEW stars. In an unforeseen twist that has surprised fans and the WWE community, Dolph Ziggler has taken center stage on BTE (Being The Elite), making an appearance that caught many off guard. 

Considering his recent visibility on the wrestling scene, this move comes as a curveball. It’s quite the amusing paradox that Ziggler’s presence on BTE has seemingly granted him more screen time than his WWE TV appearances in the past month, leaving fans to react with amusement and intrigue on Twitter.

Ziggler is one of WWE’s longest-serving superstars in WWE, with a career spanning nearly two decades and numerous achievements under his belt. Although he hasn’t been seen on WWE programming since May 29’s Monday Night Raw, he surprised fans by popping up on the YouTube show “Being The Elite,” hosted by AEW’s The Young Bucks and Kenny Omega.

On the August 14 episode of “Being The Elite,” Dolph Ziggler was featured signing autographs alongside his brother Ryan Nemeth for a comedy show. Nemeth brought up the news of the Jackson brothers (Matt and Nick Jackson) re-signing with AEW in the vlog. 

Ziggler responded with a quip about “Tito and Michael”, triggering a playful “shoot heat” moment with sound effects and on-screen text. A subtle nod to Ziggler’s WWE contract was evident. The vlog also included a reminder for Nemeth to blur his brother’s face in post-production. 

Additionally, Nemeth humorously mentioned his absence from the AEW video game and joked that he wouldn’t be performing standup shows in Detroit during SummerSlam weekend if he were in it.
