Brother Of Dolph Ziggler Sentenced to Prison Term Following 2016 Robbery

August 29, 2017

According to Cleveland.com, Donald Nemeth, the 30 year old brother of WWE star Dolph Ziggler, real name Nick Nemeth, was sentenced yesterday to 15 years in prison following a robbery attempt which lead to the January 2016 death of a military veteran and drug dealer.

Last month Nemeth, along with Jack King, who was also involved in the incident, plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter, robbery and kidnapping, however neither man admitted to killing the victim in the case, Joshua Mascol.

The report adds Nemeth plotted with King to rob Mascol, and he was shot at some point during the botched robbery. Surveillance footage from the night of the incident does not clearly identify which of the two men shot Mascol.

During yesterday’s hearing, Nemeth addmitted to battling drug addiction during the time of the robbery, saying “I’ve been battling severe addiction issues and I lost a good friend because of it.” Nemeth then apologized to the family of Mascol.

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
