Fandango Vs Ryback
Ryback is coming on leaps and bounds at present. Gone are his uneven, snorting promos which have been replaced by much more genuine and meaningful time on the mic. His in-ring work is also coming on nicely and if he continues to improve at this rate, he will be a great addition to the upper mid card. Fandango on the other hand has shown intensity but little else. But none of this matters when your gimmick is so shockingly over. I am by no means saying that this exact version of Fandango will be so pleasing in a years time but, given the right tweaks, he could very well be a main stay of the roster. What Im going for here is the most intense and powerful going head to head with the most overly ridiculous gimmick in the WWE right now. I think that such a clash of styles could make for some great TV and an entertaining match. Halfway through the year I would have Fandango turn face as his act is already entertaining enough and, to really get him over, i think the crowd need to cheer for him. And cheer they shall! He will be the same intense guy who dances to the ring and says stupid stuff but in a more of a tongue in cheek kind of way. It may also be worth giving him a first name just to bleed out that extra bit of ridiculousness. The feud itself can quite easily come from a face Fandango interrupting Ryback whos declaring hes the biggest monster in WWE or something (Ya know, generic heel big guy stuff). If Fandango is funny in a Jericho kind of way, this could really put over a Ryback feud really nicely. It wouldnt involve anything too major to back the match but after a couple of weeks of Fandango ripping into Ryback, he finds himself at the receiving end of a big table bump. This sparks Fandangos aggression and we get a juicy battle of the opposites set up for Mania.
Winner: Ryback I dont think theres any need for an upset here and believe that the feud, if done right, would do wonders to making Fandango look legit. I would only have the dancing man win if there wasnt going to be any feel good moments going forward but, as it stands, there certainly will be. However, I would have the smaller man really take it to Ryback and only have the big man take control after some illegal activity. Click Below for the third match of the night
