Author's take

Joey Ryan has been one of the more innovative wrestlers in the independent scene and has made wrestling funnier in his own unique way.

While he has more than his fair share of critics, Ryan has set a trend that is changing the way people look at wrestling. Wrestling is going through a boom right now, and athletes like Ryan, Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks are showing that the independent scene is actually a legitimate alternative to WWE.
