Author’s take

Mojo Rawley is one of the best athletes in the professional wrestling industry today.

His feud with Zack Ryder could truly be one of the dark horse programs on WWE if booked correctly, as both Superstars are tremendous athletes and share great in-ring chemistry with one another. Whether or not this feud lives up to expectations, remains to be seen.
