Zack Ryder had the Guido gimmick before Jersey Shore was even a thing.

They found out he's not as good as he says he is. In fact, he's horrible, so he got depushed.

If this was the attitude era, Vince would totally capitalize on the fact the guy is over with the crowd and find ways to work him into angles. Now Vince is an angry, complacent old man, so he cares less about Ryder than he does the mid card divison.

Ryder in the main event?

While I agree that he deserves better, at best he should be in the mid card

**Fortitude** · 01-30-2013, 04:11 PM

Its shame. A real shame.

The WWE need long term mid carders, who should be there for years and build a solid career.

Like Ryder, Prime Time Playas, Kingston, Swagger.

These guys should be the rock of the company, its core. Rather than randomly pushing one, then the other etc.

Get ridiculously over and maintain a fanbase despite getting no help from the company. And that's in a place where being over is the entire point of the job.

Just don't think he's good enough. In ring I think he's fine, but his promos and stuff just annoy me more than anything.

Seems like he even used one of those "Don't Try This" videos as a way to promote himself. "Be safe... don't try this... WOO WOO WOO, YOU KNOW IT." Certainly cheapens it a bit.

Ryder in the main event. Now that's hilarious.

He can work a decent 5-10 minute match and he works hard but other than that I can't see, I've never seen him cut a good promo and he's constantly having a bitch on twitter. He's a mid-card card talent at best.
