Funnily enough, the closest it came to making sense was that book someone wrote about it. As a bonus it had Kane randomly beating up Snitsky in a fight club.

Miz/Ziggler really told a pretty cool in-ring story. Miz kept compulsively blocking his drat face, and Ziggler finally caught him by hitting him while he was covering up.

Either that or Vince panics and mashes the Cena Default Button as hard as he can.

I don't care what you think of Zack Ryder as a wrestler, Foley is entirely right that he was *huge* (I remember the Wrestlemania 29 pre-show where you couldn't get near the guy to get an autograph, too many people) and WWE willfully buried it all into nothing. It was really amazing, in a hosed up way.

I feel like it's a bit of both.

I compare him to Steen in ROH. ROH puts out a TON of Steen merch because it sells, the audience likes him. Everyone doesn't just buy Steen shirts because ROH happens to put out a new one every month.

We may not like Cena but a ton of people do, and they want to buy his stuff. If just pushing a guy super hard made him that popular they'd have more Cenas. Just look at Orton, they tried just as hard with him as they did Cena.

Orton still gets absurd reactions at house shows and such. He's not Cena, but he's a pretty good example of "If we push this guy long enough, he'll become 'Hey it's Orton, I know him, yay.'"

No way in hell. They might let him stand up there and point a bat. Maybe. But standing in the skybox is far more likely.

Bryan's lucky he never really had a feud with Cena, just the one-off win and then Cena went away with his hilariously deformed elbow.

Also Miz was pretty drat good in the leadup to that Cena match at Mania. It was just the match itself that killed him dead.

Which was also the last time anyone gave a gently caress about Del Rio. The crowd just wanted him to die a death after that one, and...WWE did nothing. Whoops.
