I love Ryback. He's not the best in the ring, but he's got a fairly impressive moveset. He just needs to tighten up his work a bit, because he's damn entertaining.
My only real big issue with him is he needs a better finisher. I'm just not fond of the Shellshock at all. He needs something more impressive.

Love DA BIG GUY. Hope he wins the IC title on Sunday. I really want him to get a long reign with it too, even if it means him winning mostly squash matches against enhancement guys. |

I've come around on him a lot since Rybaxel. He's a lot better as the funny/corny big guy than as the super serious killing machine.
I was really impressed with how he was able to turn the hostile post-Wrestlemania RAW crowd to his side just by yucking it up with us while standing on the apron.

See what happens when you let guys show their personality.
Looking back, I think the heel turn, while at the time was horribly done, was great in retrospect. It allowed him to develop the "Da Big Guy" character.
He's also improved a ton in the ring to the point where I don't ignore his matches like I did a few years ago. He's no ring general or anything, but the guy is really holding his own now.
The guy can work as a heel or a face at this point. He can be the type of cocky face you can cheer, but he can also be the cocky heel meat head that you wanna boo.
I was definitely not a fan when he first debuted the Ryback character, but the heel turn and the brief pairing with Heyman really showed he could talk and play an actual character, and not just a generic hoss.

Nah this board likes big cartoon guys that have "it" as much as an indie darling known for his workrate. Sid is over like rover on this board for that very reason. In fact every guy is over with some FAN members, it's a pretty varied community on who everyone likes. Except Jose Lothario. No one likes him. |

He should have little Japanese hotties following him around with plates of food. Why not?

I do like him in general but I would like him soooo much more if he had a new finisher. His "shellshock" is a joke..it's nothing more than a Samoan drop yet people sell it like death. It absolutely takes me out of every match he is in. Even his clothesline would be a better finisher

I'd like to see him use the Torture Rack.

To be fair the shellshock started as a muscle buster but then he changed it to more of a stalling running drop like we see now. I still dig it. Great finish and the meathook is an awesome set up.
If anything id like to see him use the backpack stunner more.

Samoan drop youtu.be/waqrEQpwSzkShellshock youtu.be/COCCjZ8l1rQSimilar. But not the same move. |
