10 Wrestling Talents That Were Immediately Buried By WWE
2. Zack Ryder
Vince McMahon keeps telling talent that its up to them to get themselves over and they need to reach for that brass ring. With no creative behind him, Zack Ryder took matters into his own hands in 2011 and started a Youtube show called Z! True Long Island Story. Through word of mouth, and a few helpful retweets from top talent John Cena and CM Punk, Ryder managed to get himself over, to the point where the top management had to take notice, and by the end of 2011, Ryder was the United States Champion. Then, for no apparent reason at all, Ryders push had its legs cut from under it, and Ryder kept getting beaten up by Kane, and quickly lost the U.S. Title to Jack Swagger. Its been three years, and Ryder hasnt even had a real storyline. Its only a matter of time before another round of cuts happen and Ryder doesnt survive them, which is ridiculous because Zack already proved that he has the talent and charisma to be a top star in the WWE. And the only reason that he stopped getting pushed was because Ryder took it upon himself to get over with the fans, and isnt that what Vince wanted in the first place?
