I still can't get over how pathetic it was to follow the amazing DB/Cesaro match with fucking Ryback.

-nobody likes Ryback
-he sucks at wrestling
-he sucked the life out of that Raw ending

and don't even get me started on Cena. Now we need ANOTHER match between those two fucks?

maybe The Bellas being involved in that feud wouldn't be so bad after all... Ryback.. :silva:

Everyone talks about how amazing the ME was, and Cesaro/DB was amazing, but the Ryback bs still left a bad taste in my mouth.

Yeah that sucked. Guess WWE wanted to make the last match seem really tough. He wins two tough HQ matches, so they put him up against the beast. Who else could it have been?

Big Show, Wyatt Fam beat down, idk? Anyone but Rysuck

or if you HAVE to use Ryback, make it a 90 second squash with Bryan making him tap. IT's not burying him anymore than verbally tapping against mIz did ffs

Big Show was reportedly still injured, so couldn't appear last night. Wyatt family beat down? You serious? That'd be horrible unless it started a feud, but Bryan's already in the top feud.

Any other ideas?

It needed match time, and it needed to sell Bryan as the guy who doesn't give up to the casuals. The guy who had to overcome 3 tough matches and still didn't lose. Ryback had to put him through a table to end the match; puts Bryan over well. A 90 second squash would have been horrible and you know it.

No, what happened was horrible and you know it. Stop bending over backward trying to defend that bullshit.

But Bryan winning in 90 seconds sells it better? The match was boring, the Cena/Ryback stuff was boring, but it did its job. If the 90 second squash happened you'd have probably made another thread saying "OMG I UNDERSTAND THEY HATE RYBACK BUT WHAT WAS THE POINT?!!?".

The segment was absolutely fine, it did its job considering the absolute lack of other wrestlers to do it wit. If Big E was free, I'd say him. Henry is face now so they can't use him. Big Show was injured. There was no other monster to go for, and I agree that pushing him over as the tough small guy to casuals is what will work.

You think I would have made a thread wondering why they are burying Ryback? No, I am far passed that point. Nothing they do could be more damaging than what he did against Miz. I am wondering why they are bothering to protect him with a DQ finish after that.

If you are really going to keep harping until I come up with a better finish (which even if I came up with 10 you would just dismiss them and act like what happened was better) why not start with someone like Ryder or Santino, an over jobber, he beats them easily. Then start from that point with the Real American stuff and end on Bryan going over Cesaro. Simple and it ends on the show the high point (DB/Cesaro match) instead of a low point (Cena/fucking Ryback)

GOing over Ryback does nothing because Ryback is a fuckign joke at this point and you know it.

Kayfabe wise those two appearing as a legitimate threat is just not believable. It started off fine with those two. I think three matches was too much imo, but I'm glad he went over and ended RAW. They needed the shock factor, and don't pretend Cesaro/Swagger is. Regardless of how they've fucked with Ryback, he's still more kayfabe threatening than those two.

He verbally tapped out to the biggest pussy on the roster. He has zero kayfabe credibility.

Like the casuals really care about that.

"WTF he's no threat! He verbally tapped out to Miz!? Put Cesaro in there, he's super super strong!" - When was Cesaro's last win? Ryback is still more credible and you know it bro. I agree that it fucking sucked but they went with the shock angle to get the casuals to support Bryan more, and that was the only way. Probably was tons of better ways to go about it, but I've yet to read one.
