Now i know how Alex Riley fans feel when Riley always got owned by Lawler, it's just plain embarrassing and kinda disheartening to watch. fpalm
TKOW is right, the problem is the audience don't buy into his character at all, he's clearly 'acting' to be a rich guy and that's not good, he's just not heelish enough to play this kind of character. Even someone like Del Rio (who portrays similar character) still struggles to get heat even though he does 10x times better job at portraying it, that's because this kind of gimmick is already kinda played out.
WWE did a fatal mistake by booking him like a complete loser because it does more harm than good, why would people care about loser? It's difficult for him to recover now.
Ted has already added more aggressive style into his in-ring work and that suits him better, but the problem is it doesn't mesh well with his whole rich kid persona so he has to throw this millionaire thingy away first. He seems more like a natural babyface to me (he looks like a legit nice guy judging based on his tweets) so maybe a face turn will do wonders for him and people will probably start buying into his actions.
