WWE Superstars share their horrifying Valentine's Day date stories

Zack Ryder

“I’m a dating expert. Not an expert at all dating or relationships, in general, but I’m a great first-dater. One first date, though, did not go so well.

“In the summer of 2009, I took a girl to a concert at Jones Beach Theater on Long Island. I bought pretty expensive tickets, and I thought it was a pretty impressive first date—bringing a girl to a concert, with good seats, too. After the show, I asked her where she wanted to go. She was like, ‘I’m going home.’ Are you serious, bro?

“Even though she was a 10 out of 10, I didn’t talk to her for years. We were Facebook friends, but I never saw her until years later, this past December. We had a show at Madison Square Garden, and she was in one of the luxury suites. She messaged me on Facebook, so, after the show, I met up with her. I made sure my sweater wasn’t zippered and I was flexing my abs the whole time. She gave me her number and said if I was ever in Manhattan, to call her. And I never called her. That’s what happens. Don’t reject Zack Ryder.

What goes around comes around. You know who says that? Justin Timberlake. JT!”
