Riley should be wrestling. I want Riley's commentary schtick to lead to something, like a small mini feud with some random heel, or trying to make the save for another face getting a beatdown or warding off outside interference. The dude is being wasted being used solely as a commentator. There's no reason he can't announce AND wrestle like Miz is. It's like WWE is going out of their way to avoid using him. He wasn't even part of the big run in on RAW. Plus maybe if he has something else of substance to do, he wouldn't talk about his time with Miz so much (even though admittedly they bring the best out of each other).

I hope Bryan/Orton get's a stipulation, maybe LMS?

Surprised they didn't put Show in the title match. Maybe they're keeping him away from the title picture and within his own angle with Stephanie tormenting him.

Sandow wins! Keep at Damien, you'll turn that 3-12 record since MITB into a winning one soon enough.

I think the only hope Riley has at this point is a repackaging, seriously. Put him in a leather jacket and give him a bounty hunter gimmick or something. Though to be quite honest, I hope A-Ry gets a push more to get you to stop asking for it than my own feelings about the guy. (I really don't see anything special about the guy)

Though to be quite honest, I hope A-Ry gets a push more to get you to stop asking for it than my own feelings about the guy. (I really don't see anything special about the guy) What I like about Riley is that he has this amazing charisma as a face, and has been able to remain over despite having no discernable gimmick and doing nothing for two years. And he has this explosive quickness and athleticism in the ring whenever he's on offense; he's faster and more agile than a person of his muscular build has any right to be. He's made massive improvements in the ring since his initial push, and for that he deserves another shot. There's no real reason for him to just be a commentator. And speaking objectively, I think it looks awkward to have a full time announcer who looks like he could go toe to toe with any given wrestler at any time (only exceptions are the veterans like JBL). Riley deserves to have a respectable wrestling career.
