I am now totally convinced that the WWE is VERY much in denial when it comes to Zack Ryder!

I am now totally convinced that the WWE is VERY much in denial when it comes to Zack Ryder! He can have as many youtube views as he wants, and the support of Cena and Miz, and it still matters squat apparently.

I don't understand the reasoning behind this.

I can't understand why WWE insists on pressing down on the wrestlers fans are responding to. Ryder is getting over because of his web show and WWE should exploit this. But no: here is Mason Ryan, followed by a twenty minute Hornswoggle VS Great Khali dance-off.
The worst example I can think of was in 2005 when Christian was becoming stratospherically over on his own, and WWE bottled out of pushing him to the top. This was a time when guys like Triple H, Jericho etc were still on RAW and Batista was emerging as the top star. You could argue that Christian got properly over before Edge did.

This is getting ridiculous, the guy's on the freakin' roster, he's allowed to have fans you know?

How the hell are wrestlers supposed to get over when management is actively trying to stifle their momentum?

Yeah, it's not like it mentioned a TNA wrestler or something, I mean the guy is getting a paycheck from the WWE, and in turn he becoming popular with fans who buy his merchandise which makes money for the WWE. I don't understand their logic here.

I don't understand their logic here. I think its basically those that oversee the running of the show thinking to themselves "how dare you get over on your own without our help. we'll show you". Very stubborn way to run a company though.

It's a possibility. I know kayfabe is dead, but I can't imagine they are terribly happy about the way he exposes how things work ("NOBODY PUSHES ZACK RYDER!", "...I can't get over!" etc. They might see cutting him as a 'f*** you' to get him to go to TNA and see his heat gradually fizzle out.
It would be a crying shame if he was released.

anyone else nervous he might be on the cut list? I always am, but I'unno- the ad they had for the draft last night had Zack Ryder in it, so that got my hopes up. But you never know. What I DO know is that that would be a complete and awful waste. EDIT: To the poster above who asked if he can wrestle, the answer is yes! I, personally, think that he is pretty damn good, and he can only get better- he's rather young.
