Average at best. His acting ability is worse, he's not convincing at all. I know he's a joke character and he's not suppose to be taken seriously, but even still is acting isn't good at all. You know you're bad when you're not believable even in a joke role. Having said that though, he's improved slightly from how bad he was before. Around December/January time when he was in that awful feud with Kane/Cena/Eve his poor acting skills really got exposed, but he's improved a bit since.

I enjoyed him more as a delusional goofball heel back in ECW than I do as a catchphrase-spouting guy who grins all the time and does little else. A few years ago, I thought he had potential. Now, I'm not so sure. Average at best sounds accurate.

Average, just like guys such as Daniel Bryan and Kofi Kingston but the difference between them is unlike Ryder, the other two can actually act. Ryder poor acting skills doesn’t do him any favors at all but once again he is not bad nor good just in the middle.

Just terrible mic skills. Everything about Zack Ryder is awful. His gimmick sucks, he can't talk on the mic and his wrestling skills suck. I don't see how he still has a job in WWE.

About Bryan and Kofi as well.

Average, and having one of the worst gimmicks ever doesn't help. Even the guido gimmick that guy from TNA has is ton of times better.

He's pretty average. At everything, tbh.

I like him, but I don't think he has a good mic skills. Plus, as a GM, he was barely seen during the show, "booked" 2 matches and later nothing. Are you serious, "bro"?

His mic skills are good, in my opinion, can't see how people can rate him badly on them. He doesn't fuck up on the mic and says everything with confidence, comic timing and delivers promos really well. His acting is pretty poor though, as seen in that Kane storyline.
Can't really see why people can shit on him, he's a good comedy underdog character, even though WWE ruined him.

I find a lot of Z funny, but it's not the stuff featuring Ryder most of the time. Other than Chiappeta, Ryder might be the least entertaining part of his own youtube show.

I watched about 5 episodes in full and didn't laugh once.

I've always perceived Ryder's character as a tool whose humour value is in not being actually funny. Just look back at his skits with Edge. But it worked better for him as a heel, now it's become kind of awkard when you're meant to support him. But the dry humour is what makes Z!TLIS brilliant (haven't watched in a while though), you need to look at it with a different mindset. So bad it's good.

Average. They work for his character, but they aren't good overall. Whenever he's given the chance to have an extended promo, you realize how limited he really is on his mic work. He's much better doing a catchphrase or two.
