Who can forget Ryback’s meteoric rise to the top? Since Ryback made his debut, he destroyed everyone. Sometimes he would beat two or three guys while chanting ‘Feed Me More’. This chant caught on and soon WWE fans worldwide started chanting along with ‘The Big Guy’.

Hence, WWE thought he was ready for a push. They couldn’t have been more wrong. Ryback challenged for the WWE Championship against CM Punk and he lost in controversial fashion.
Ever since that loss, his push has been in question. Not only was Ryback’s mic skills lacklustre, but his ring work was rusty as well. He certainly didn’t deserve the push he received so soon. While the fans loved him because he reminded them of Goldberg that wasn’t enough for him to get pushed. He just didn’t have what it takes to be a champion. He should’ve won either the Intercontinental or United States Championship before getting a shot at WWE’s most coveted title.

Even turning him heel didn’t do him any favours. WWE gave up on him and decided to move on.

A wrestling aficionado since childhood, Sunil used to imitate his favorite wrestlers as a young kid, and started writing professionally about the sport via Sportskeeda’s revenue-sharing opportunity.
Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.
If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
