Zack Ryder is nothing like Shannon Moore, I don't even get that comparison. Moore was never anywhere near as over as Ryder is, nor anywhere near as charismatic.

Ryder's current pop is short term, once his Youtube videos stop and the social media buzz dies down it'll be the real test of his lasting popularity.

RVD1000, over Daniel Bryan? Didn't watch, waiting for WWE to upload it to youtube, but I read the tapings results earlier this week. No doubt, somewhere, Audiobank and that IndyWhiteKnight Mindgames are busily fapping at his win. He'll still lose to Mark Henry. He'll still be the first to unsuccessfully cash-in the MITB briefcase. Then I'll lol. I'll lol hard.

edit: No need for hateful name-calling. Especially against someone that can't reply.

I mean, doesn't everybody else see this happening?

Nope. Not with this man in charge:

That's what I'm trying to say, his in ring capabilities is what I was comparing to being close to Shannon Moore, & TLA When I said Shannon Moore had potential I meant I did think that he could do a little something more for himself without being Fatt Hardy's plus one. Too bad he couldn't start a Youtube channel.

Read an interesting statistic about Punk's title win at MSG, credit to 'The Wrestling Genius' at Wrestleheat:

quote Wrestleheat.com

The WWE title has only changed hands there four times since 1984; it has been defended 34 times at MSG in that time. That’s less then 10% success rate for the challenger. Cena has never won the WWE title at MSG and he’s been the biggest star for almost a decade.

Definitely looks like WWE are hyping Punk to be the next top babyface. I still think that's so Cena can have a run as the companies top heel, starting at Mania, but we'll see...

wouldn't call it short term, id argue this is his break it or make it moment. his momentum is incredible, i dont think anyone's had similar momentum in recent years. from a jobber to one of the most popular guys within 40 weeks? that's incredible

his character is a comedy character, yes, but it doesn't mean that he'll be a comedy character forever. it's bullshit that people always say 'but i can't take ryder seriously'. well, duh, he's a comedy character. when was the last time a comedy character was meant to be taken seriously?

but despite the fact that he's a comedy character, he'd still be a credible champion imo. we need a goofy face (ala kurt angle), and ryder fits the bill. he's got the look, the charisma and the ability. it's frustrating that wwe keeps on holding his push despite the fact that he's one of the most popular wrestlers atm.

and tbh, he can easily ditch the LI gimmick to be a credible main eventer. i mean, who would've thought that wigger john cena would've been the number one guy in WWE?
