... so hilarious?
I can't explain it, but no matter how often the WWE has a pair of straight wrestlers acting like a couple (Like Heyman and Ryback now) I'm always entertained. It's like, a never-fail way to get a good chuckle out of me. And judging by posts here, I'm not the only one who loves it.
Heyman and Ryback are my all time favourite. But I also loved Miz and Jericho's brief teaming where they acted like a pair of bitter exs towards Big Show.

I don't know, but I knew where they were going with it the first time they mentioned a proposal. I still laughed, & laughed, & laughed. It was like a third grade sex ed class in my living room!

Like I said in the Raw thread, every time Jerry Lawler chortled and snickered and was so aghast when he shouted "PROPOSAL!?!?" it set back all of the goodwill WWE earned with Darren Young's coming out.

I think it's not even the fact that it's two straight wrestlers acting like a couple that's hilarious. It's the fact that it's Heyman and Ryback. Like, if it was Cody Rhodes and Alex Riley acting like that we'd have some people going "Awww yeah" instead of "HAHAHAHAHAHAHA." It's just that Ryback and Heyman is like...the weirdest couple. It's the kind of thing you'd joke about when watching a show but never see the show itself actually joke about.

It's because the Ryback smirky troll face is amazing that's why.
Regardless of what you think about Ryback, that's the best face anyone makes in the WWE atm.

Heyman gazing into Ryback's eyes, & Ryback with that stupid grin. The only thing that would've made it better is if Ryback suddenly looked sad, confused, & dejected when Heyman asked him to be a Heyman Guy rather than, you know... |

That's how I want the angle to end. Note that he hasn't said "Yes" to being a Heyman Guy yet. Hopefully he'll go "NO. YOU PLAYED WITH MY FEELINGS AND I HATE BOWLIES." Then he'll beat up Bryan for a completely unrelated reason leaving everyone to ponder if Ryback, rather than being a simple villain, legitimately believes his own insanity. |

I didn't see it that way at all. Straight, gay, I think everyone would find Heyback A lil cringeworthy and hilarious. |

Why? It's not homophobic. King's reaction is because it's absurd. Sure, they might have been hoping to get some boos from homophobes with the proposal tease but it's not the love for another man that was supposed to cause them. It's the love for a heel. It reminds me of when Terry Funk was trying to get under Foley's skin in ECW. He insulted everyone close to him, even his family, but he didn't lose it until he insulted Bischoff. (He was going to WCW). Paul is making it seem like being a Heyman guy is the greatest thing ever too. I thought it worked on multiple levels. |

Cody/Ted, Miz/Riley, Cena/Ryder (okay, that's one hot guy and one...um...yeah...). And I think we can sort of kind of count Desperate Jobber Miz being a hanger-on to Heel Daniel Bryan. |

It's because it has one of the best performers of all time completely selling it with his promos and facial expressions and everything that Ryback does is hilarious. Just thinking about their segments last night is making me laugh.

King's "Ryback Mountain" line was absolutely fantastic.

The whole segment, including Punk's fake injury, was terrible.

It's like Darren Young has made Heyman see the light and "come out with his feelings"
I mean, Heyman guy or not...Paul Heyman wants to make an honest man out of you Ryback!
