5. Ryback, Dolph Ziggler And Daniel Bryan Have A Henry Godwinn Connection
In my opinion, the Intercontinental Champions Club episode of Table for 3 is the best. Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler and Ryback get together to discuss the secondary title and their careers, and the chemistry between Bryan and Ryback is particularly adorable. They do spend a lot of the episode coming up with connections between them other than the IC title, and an interesting one comes up in the shape of Henry Godwinn. When Ryback was just a 13 year old Ryan Reeves, he wrote a letter explaining why he should have front row tickets to a WWE live event, and the boy won! He also got to meet a superstar of his choice, with Reeves plumping for Razor Ramon. When it came to the meeting however, Razor wasn't available. The replacement? Henry Godwinn. A fair trade! Henry Godwinn was also the first superstar to touch Daniel Bryan's hand at a WWE live event, continuing the connection. Dolph's story? When in developmental, Godwinn came back to try and secure a job with the WWE for himself and a clown character called 'The Juicer'. They had a tryout, and needless to say it didn't go so well. Henry Godwinn has never been so relevant.
