Nice! All 3 of my signs made it into episode 18. WWWYKI. Lets see if he gets any TV time next week. Hoping the fans at the show chant as loud as they did at Nassau Coliseum. Then maybe with the fans choice he will get a match. Then again knowing the WWE it will be a multiple choice similar to when Christian lost the Title, where there is gonna be 1 obvious pick.

they'll arrange the options in such a was that they're 90% sure of knowing the exact card in advance.

Connorzee · 16-06-2011 10:28PM

Kinda get the feeling he was a little pissed off underneath all that in the video. Didnt do much gags and it was more or less in reference to not being aired on Monday... What time is 5pm US over here? 10?

I picked up on that especially when he said how everyone was chanting and how he literally showed every sign that was on screen.

Garseys · 17-06-2011 08:55AM

The reaction he got on Superstars, :eek:

Also loved the fact they showed his dad and the Big O, Also I wonder if he's gonna be booked as a face (especially after that promo)

jaykhunter · 17-06-2011 04:37PM

Zack's match on Superstars. Worth it to hear the crowd reaction!

^ talk about being over this guy is extremely over

ayatollah · 17-06-2011 08:46PM

i totally watched that match with a big smirk on my face. i feel so bad for him about vince's stupid childish behaviour - the crowd were mad for him ridiculous.

Mr. Guappa · 18-06-2011 12:55AM

I really liked that episode of Z! True Long Island Story. The Melina cut-out with the Morrison wind effect thing were very good.

Gerard.C · 18-06-2011 06:35AM

I find it hilarious that he wasnt on Raw. Go on Vince ya legend stick it to the internet

Africa · 19-06-2011 02:46AM

great match he had.

Connorzee · 19-06-2011 10:29AM

And it's got a better announce team, mainly due to scott Stanford. :pac:

Mr.Nice Guy · 19-06-2011 11:06PM

Interesting take on things from Lance Storm:

Q: On Raw it was in Long Island, and Zack Ryder who was from there got snubbed but not even making an apperance on Raw (he did make one on Superstars). Jericho and others tweeted that was wrong that a guy in his hometown didn't even get to preform on the main show. Has that ever happened to you that when you were in Calgary with an organization that you didn't get to wrestle on the main show? This sounds like a dumb question, but as a professional how can you not let it effect you that you don't even get to preform in your hometown? Thanks as always Lance! Keep up the great work, hope you are well. I'm looking for some cool books that you may like. My dad said he loved Girl with the Dragon tattoo, not sure if you have read it.

A: I have a very different opinion on this one, than Jericho. If I was in charge for that one night I wouldn’t have booker Ryder on RAW either. The live crowd is but a tiny fraction of your audience, so I think it’s pointless to book your show exclusively for them. This was a go home show for a PPV and if Zach wasn’t on the week before, isn’t on the PPV, and won’t be on the week after, what is the point of putting him on RAW? This has nothing to do with whether Zach deserves to be featured more on RAW it’s about one specific show. Yes the local home town fans wanted to see him, but they did. He worked on the show the crowd in attendance got to see their home town guy. The only people that didn’t see him were fans from elsewhere around the world and to them the city RAW is in doesn’t matter, so Ryder deserves to be on RAW that night as much as he does any other Monday. This did happen to me in Calgary, except worse. The first time back in Calgary with WWE after my initial Invasion run in, I did all the local press promoting the show. I was working regularly on RAW at that point, so during all my PR I mentioned that while I was on the show last time this was Calgary’s first chance to see me wrestle in WWE. That night I did not get a match on RAW, or Heat. I was told that since I was a heel and they did not want me getting cheered during a match I would not be wrestling. I understood their stance but wanted to at least be given a dark match so that the local crowd I promised a match to would at least get it. I did not get a match at all that night.

I'd normally agree with this logic but since it was a 3 hour show surely they could have fit Ryder in somewhere.

jaykhunter · 20-06-2011 12:24AM

In general myself and Lance Storm have opposing views on wrestling.

Hang on, since when doesn't WWE book things towards the crowd in attendance then their TV audience? Every time they have a local celebrity guest host RAW, or football players from the state, down to the staple of using cheap heat every week slagging off the local teams. Everyone watching outside the state doesn't give a sh!t but WWE continually use it.

Zack should been on RAW last week; the week before, every week, and on the PPV. Wrestling is about characters; and this lad is over. TBH you shouldn't be booking wrestlers with only in-ring skills - people might pay attention for a high spot, but they'll stay for the characters and storylines. This lad is extremely creative and charismatic; and should be showcased......you know, draw ratings and money! I know the IWC have a rep for niche wrestlers; but we were right about CM Punk, and we're right about Bryan. We're also right about Ryder.

If I didn't know better I'd think that Lance is a little bitter that he was snubbed in his home town so Ryder should be too.

Lord TSC · 20-06-2011 10:47AM

I kind of agree with Storm, but my main problem with last week wasn't the fact Ryder wasn't used; it was the joke played on him. It was the reports he was told he was going to have a role to play and then had it maliciously taken away from him for the amusement of others. THAT's the part that's unprofessional imo.

Is he slagging his employer? I don't think he is to be honest. Not maliciously. He takes the piss of himself more than he does of WWE in general....
