I know he hasn't been around for long but I really can't stand Ryback. I just don't find the character very interesting and his in ring work isn't that great. The whole winning streak thing worked with Goldberg but trying to replicate for Ryback is a waste of a push. I find his whole two at a time jobber destruction almost as tedious as the master lock challenge. Hopefully they will just feed him to Cena and he can drift off in to oblivion.

I don't hate him, but I'm not really a fan yet. They can't go the Goldberg direction. Hell, even when they brought Goldberg into WWE the undefeated streak angle didn't work again. Can't catch lightning in a bottle more than once. Gotta try something different. Give Ryback a real feud and a competitive match for a few months and we'll see if people stop comparing him to Goldberg. Until they change course, he'll always seem like Goldberg lite.

Thank you. I've heard so many people making a fuss over this character. It doesn't work for me either. I would like to give the guy a chance but until he gets a legitimate feud like you said, I just can't get behind the gimmick.

Who in the midcard would you book against Ryback? There's the real question.

No, don't hate him, just thoroughly bored by him. Ryback segment= come out, growl; stomp around the ring; do a clothesline; some powerslam move; finisher, chant "FEED ME MORE!" over and over like a roided android whose wiring has come loose; leave. Same shit for 4+ months now. A Ryback segment is a piss break for me.

The problem is they have booked him as an unstoppable monster but eventually he's gonna lose and then he's just another guy. They built Tensai up as a monster but then lost interest in him and I can see the same happening to Ryback.
In fact they might as well have Ryback and Tensai feud with each other, at least Ryback won't be able to squash Tensai.

It's nothing that a decent feud can't cure, which is why I'm a bit undecided on him. Like I said, the streak angle has been done too many times. No one is intrigued by it. They need to go somewhere else with him |

After watching the end of Raw, I'm worried that Ryback might be Punk's mini feud before Hell in a Cell. Either that or Ryback joins Punk to form a new stable.

It's been thrown out there a few times that Ryback will turn to align with Punk, but that would be a dumb move in my opinion. Ryback is the one new babyface that's being pushed. He's getting over and I'll be happy just to see them give a new babyface like him a shot. |

I would enjoy seeing him get in on some real tv time. Maybe they'll finally build his personality.
