The Spirit Squad AKA WWE’s former resident Male Cheerleaders. Kenny, Johnny, Mitch, Nickey, and Mickey. At the time of their relevance the Spirit Squad feuded with the legendary DX, and worked with the boss, Vince McMahon. They even won the prestigious World Tag Team Championships. The Spirit Squad was an interesting team for WWE, but isn’t surprising knowing how WWE loves its characters.

Eventually the Spirit Squad disbanded, and the sole survivor of the group was Nickey AKA Dolph Ziggler.

He would eventually break away from Maria and be managed by Vickie Guerrero. Under Vickie, he would win the Intercontinental Title and awarded the World Heavyweight Championship. Needless to say Vickie Guerrero created the Dolph we all love today.

In the 2012 Money in The Bank match, Dolph would win the coveted Money in the Bank Briefcase securing him a future World title match. He would hold that briefcase for a year until the Raw after Wrestlemania were he would cash in on a down and injured Alberto Del Rio. Ziggler would hold the title until Del Rio would take the title off of him at WWE Payback. The remainder of 2013 was rough for Dolph dealing with Concussions.

Ziggler would find redemption for a lackluster 2013, Ziggler competed against The Miz to win the Intercontinental Title, and this is would have given Dolph the huge push. From there, Dolph would go on to compete in the Survivor Series match against the Authority, which lead to him winning with the help of Sting.
