It's interesting but it's hard to get into it because it only happens during gut check segments. I'm gonna have to say no for now until we see more leading to the potential match.

Just their interactions are so cool because they are not "officially" recognized and they are not blowing their wad with it. They are instead letting it grow slowly on its own without forcing anything. This is exactly how WWE should have done the CM Punk storyline last year, rather than have HHH and Nash kick his ass all the time.

Definitely not the best in Wrestling now. I see potential in it and it could work it's way up as soon as there are more physical altercations and to hear more of what Joey Ryan has to say

I'ts interesting, but it hasn't gotten very far yet... which actually means it's potential is through the roof. Slow build feuds... ahhh... it's lovely to see you again!

I think it's a great feud. But, certainly not the best right now. It has yet to really develop. However, I do really enjoy the little time it does get on air.

The feud is basically a social network feud. It may seem like it's getting little development but if you follow Al Snow and Joey Ryan, they take shots at each other on a near daily basis which carries over into tonight's segment.

It's pretty much all but confirmed that Joey Ryan vs Al Snow is happening at BFG. The angle should pick up steam on TV starting in September.

It's not the best feud but it's certainly one with potential if Taz didn't have to be replaced.

No, not until we get more interaction between the two, they're only on TV once every three weeks for a minute or so. I am intrigued in the story though. 87% btw

It's intriguing, and when they're both on the TV screen, I personally find myself compelled to watch - so that's a good thing. I'm also compelled to watch Aces & Eights, pretty much anything Aries-related, and whenever I see Daniels backstage with a martini glass. Either way, it's a storyline that's consistently progressing, and it's got me paying attention. Is it the BEST? Probably not right now.. but is it a part of the show I look forward to? Damn right

For starters, it's not confirmed they are wrestling on PPV whatsoever. That's merely a conclusion fans have drawn up. Could it happen ? Yes. Will it ? That's the question...if they stick to the details that have been stated in this storyline, the answer would likely be no. Ryan has openly talked about PPV paydays in one of his promos and on twitter, thus it would make little sense to put a guy who isn't under contract, has mentioned the paydays and whom Snow says cannot and does not draw, on PPV.

The match also won't be a world beater, so using it to pop a TV rating IMO would be smarter, as it likely won't pop a PPV buyrate. But there is a chance especially if it happens at the top of the 2nd hour they can pop the TV rating for that quarter.

As far as Taz being replaced, not sure what you are trying to say but Taz was never going to wrestle Ryan, unless the call would be for a 30 second match where Joey essentially gets locked into a Tazmission and that's it. Taz cannot wrestle anymore and will not wrestle anymore. Maybe I misread what you meant but if I did not then I present this...from back when Taz debuted with TNA he posted this on his FB page :

"I think some of you thought I was gonna come out and suplex someone or choke someone out. I physically CANNOT WRESTLE ANYMORE!! I cannot BUMP anymore...I have numbness in my right arm on a daily basis...I have about 40% range of motion in my neck folks! For the 20 billionth time..I'M DONE...Hence why I am an announcer."
Hopefully for anyone who thought Taz was originally going to wrestle, this clears that up and they realize the storyline was always meant to lead to Snow vs Ryan. Taz was used as to bridge between and allow them more time to drag the story out and slow burn it. Taz/Ryan's on screen confrontation also made for great freaking TV.

I can say I have never been a huge fan of TNA, but have been watching lately and I am really impressed. They have some great matches, and the Aces and Eights story line is what brought me around. I have noticed the Ryan/Snow story going on. I am interested in where it might go.
