5 WWE tag-team wrestlers who deserve a singles run in 2018

#2 Zack Ryder

The Hype Bros look set to split up

Remember Zack Ryder’s first singles run in WWE? He won the United States Championship in 2011 and the Intercontinental Championship in 2016, but sandwiched between those two triumphs was a five-year spell where he officially reached ‘jobber’ status.

Zack is a different character now to the one he portrayed when he first burst onto the scene as one of Edge’s Edgeheads, or when he got himself over with fans via social media, or even when he won the Intercontinental title at WrestleMania 32.

He has shown a more intense side to his personality in recent months alongside Hype Bro partner Mojo Rawley, and whether Zack turns on Mojo or Mojo turns on Zack, it looks likely that the two are set to split up.

We haven’t seen Ryder as a heel since 2011, so perhaps that’s the direction WWE will decide to take in the coming months.
