Ryback..........that's my Adam Bomb :obama:

:notsure: He does seem more similar to a repackaged Wrath (Adam Bomb/Bryan Clark) than a Goldberg.

Remember Wrath, guys? :takedat:

He was basically Goldberg before Goldberg crushed the buildings and deaded his wave.



I don't think Ryback necessarily needs a belt in order for him to matter. I think he just needs a feud and if I were to make a prediction based on the build-up, I'd be trying to sell THIS match sometime down the line...

Ryback Vs. Roman Reigns. :popcorn:

The only reason Ryback seemed to get a sniff of the gold was because :cenasabo: got hurt at an inopportune time and the Return of Rocky.

I feel that we're eventually going to see Ryback collide with all the powerhouse heavies at some point but he's got beef with Reigns right now and that's what they can salvage him with. They may be using The Shield to get him over while Rock, Punk, & :cenasabo: are busy.

Maybe he partners up with Taker against the Shield at 'Mania? :manny:

He's going to have to divide and conquer and it and in my opinion, it seems fair for Ryback to be the one to beat The Shield instead of Cena. He'll be alright.

Ryback was ready to make them some money. He had that once in a lifetime type of hype where all they had to do was pull the trigger. We'll never truly know where that would have gone had he won Hell in a Cell

:rudy:


When he's get no pop whatsoever in 75% of cities and Goldberg chants in the other 25%:mjpls:

your history is off.

nash in his self-grandiose booking to protect his chicken leg non-working ass ruined wrath.

wrath versus goldberg would have really been the money feud if wrath was not jobbed, to nash in a squash.

another clit bullshyt decision that ruined a company and the quality.

real talk,....

ryback should have been facing brock for the whc title at mania.

to close out the last of the new dangerous alliance.
another wwe drops the ball to appease the c00n-in-law based decision.

I'm watching the match Vs. Nash now. :snoop:

Wrath hits him with a bicycle kick and a GREAT dropkick. Dude even hits a flying clothesline from the TOP.

Dude could have been one of the GOAT big men and Goldberg/Wrath could've been MONEY with both of their streaks on the line. :smh:

He was over. Trying to undercut that now is ridiculous. They chose Punk and the Shield over him and we'll see how that pays off in 2013.

He's done. Momemtum crushed instantly at HIAC followed by SS and TLC. The RR elimination was just the icing on the cake. :buried:

I know you all hate hearing "turn him heel" but he should have been that from the beginning, period. His style is exactly that, especially since he's doing it on guys half his size for the majority of his matches. He's an actual bully. Be a Star though :troll:

Brehs I've been watching old youtube clips and somehow I came up watching the WWE Title Match of HHH vs Vladimir Kozlov (Jeff Hardy high or drunk somewhere as I remember that he was supposed to be in the match as well but wasn't) and I remember how everyone just straight shytted on the match.

Nah that never happened, Kozlov was supposed to be in it.

Nah... they pretty much gave up on Kozlov immediately after he had his first main event. Every bit of build got deconstructed after that, until he got popped out of the Rumble in a hurry and wasn't even used at WrestleMania. And this happened in a matter of like 3 months. Ryback's doin' much better than that. He's lost some matches, but they've been high-profile matches. Kozlov got jobbed the fukk OUT after that terrible match with HHH.

EDIT: Art Barr tellin' them autistic ducktales again... Wrath/Goldberg woulda been a money feud. OK. :heh:
