Meanwhile, Ziggler equated the Democratic race between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders as a storyline building to the climax at Summerslam\/the Democratic Convention.<\/p>\n<p>The interview started with the host,\u00a0Lisa Kennedy Montgomery, jokingly asking Ziggler if wrestling is fake. Ziggler laughed and said it&#8217;s only fake when he loses,\u00a0which happens a lot.<\/p>\n<p>Later in the panel discussion, the topic of women&#8217;s looks came up. Ziggler said he sees a lot of colleagues repeatedly posting photos of themselves online, pointing to self-image issues. He said there&#8217;s also a &#8220;belly-flattening tea&#8221; that is popular in the locker room, since it is a cosmetic business, amplified by trying to look impressive on social media.<\/p>\n<p>The hour-long show closed with a plug for Ziggler facing Baron Corbin in a No DQ match at the Extreme Rules PPV Sunday on WWE Network.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3482227974\"><div id=\"pwtor-4181583203\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>WWE star Dolph Ziggler appeared on the\u00a0&#8220;Kennedy&#8221; show Thursday night in prime time on Fox Business.
