Nic Nemeth Admits He Stole One of His Signature Moves

Nic Nemeth dropped a bombshell during a Twitter Q&A ahead of TNA Final Resolution. When asked about the origins of his iconic Zig-Zag/Danger Zone finishing move, Nemeth didn’t hold back, confessing, “Stole it from Heath haha.”

The admission has fans doing a double take, as Nemeth’s finisher has been a staple of his wrestling arsenal for years. Known for his charisma, it turns out one of his most recognizable moves has roots with his former WWE colleague Heath Slater.

Nemeth and Slater worked together extensively during their time in WWE, and while stealing moves isn’t uncommon in wrestling, it’s rare for a top star to openly admit it. The lighthearted confession sparked a wave of reactions online, with fans appreciating the honesty and humor behind Nemeth’s response.

This playful reveal comes as Nemeth prepares to defend his TNA World Championship against AJ Francis at Final Resolution on December 13. Whether the Danger Zone will play a role in his title defense remains to be seen, but fans now know they have Heath Slater to thank for one of Nemeth’s signature moments.
