No fucking way. You could see every single person doing his hand motions or pumping their fists when they were chanting. Watch the crowd every once in a while. I'm so sick of this piped in shit it's just unfounded paranoia and determination to find anything unauthentic IN A FAKE SPORT. Anything wrong with that sentence? Some kind of double standard maybe?
He entertains the hell out of me. And Ryan Reeves is such a likeable guy. I enjoy watching him
Winning streaks get over. Book a guy well and he'll be recieved well, it's a pretty simple formula, ESPECIALLY when they win in the manner that he does. It doesn't matter that RyBack is an untalented Goldberg wannabe, and he is, it only matters to the casuals that he has the right look and the WWE is using that look to create the image that fits it.
I don't have much an explanation for it, I like watching his matches. He's got an intensity about it that's been sorely missed for a few years in the WWE.
Why in the world are people chanting "Goldberg" anyway? Who does it entertain, what does it prove? Goldberg was relevant in 2003, 9 years ago. The same goes for the fans chanting "Albert." Hell, I don't remember fans chanting "Issac Yankem" when Kane debuted. Or "Giant" when Big Show first came to WWE. Hell, they didn't chant "Mean Mark Callous" for Undertaker. What the hell does it prove? That you read the internet?
But, on topic. Yes, Ryback is over. His chant is over, and he's actually a very good big man.
Why does it matter to any fan of wrestling (especially someone that dislikes him. I can sort of understand why someone would care if they like them) care about the reaction someone comes out to or whether or not it was piped in?
That's what I don't understand. Every Ryback, Bryan, Cena, or Sheamus thread has at least one mention of planting crowd members, piping in, or editing out. Who the hell cares; it's nitpicking to the extreme and I'm getting sick of reading it.
I wondered how long it would take before 'feed me more' was added to Ryback's theme and apparently tonight was the night. Don't know what the hate for the song is all about thought, I actually enjoyed it even more than the original.
The best part of the match tonight was JTG saying he better not get pinkeye. Classic.
Not only is this guy complete shit, but he's cringe worthy as hell. The WWE could get a steaming pile of crap placed in the middle of the ring over if they wanted to.
But I agree with the whole "no piped chants" last night. It looked like an authentic reaction seeing as how a good chunk of the fans on TV were doing his taunt.
I like how they are slowly building him up and its paying off. Hes over. And to those saying the chants are piped in.....ha. I guess people were doing to arm motions and moving their lips bt making no sound. I really don't like what they did with his theme song though. Whatevs.
Yes, he is over. and I have no doubt he will become the #1 face of WWE, something like 1 year from now. as the toppest face, he will establish himself (with the right help from WWE bookers) as one of the greatest ever, and possiblly THE greatest ever. I have already sayed that he is the total packeg: strong, fast, intimidate, devestating, charismatic, and excellent in the ring (can do everything in ring, and do it well). so Ryback is undoubtlly the perfect choise for WWE making him #1. just wait something like 2 years from now.
He should be given his strong booking and the fact that he's talented regardless of what quite a few guys think. Doesn't convince me that he's main event worthy however.
I'm with the OP, he is more over than the Funkasaurus who was also booked strong but has lost steam. Kids chant "feed me more" and at the end of the day isn't that what Vince wants?
As for the chants being piped in, that's B.S. You could see the crowd pumping their arms and chanting.
Of course he is. Dude is larger-than-life, booked impeccably, has a fun, identifiable moveset and simple catchphrases and motions that anyone can get behind. I almost feel like trudging up my old posts where I said Skip Sheffield was going to be a huge monster babyface when he returned from injury just to be a dickhole.
The entire Creative team and Ryback himself have done a great job getting this character over.
hate him or love him _______ is over. can apply to many guys on the roster, it means shit all.
