Good business for WWE, but not a bright future for Ryder 5+ years down the line.

But I'm open to the possibility of him legitimately breaking out as a real star. It just takes WWE's nod to look at him as higher on the card Santino.
I see your point, but if he did not create this gimmick where would he be at? Shit, being a mid-card wrestler in the WWE is damn good. Having him as John Cena's partner wasn't really bad, Rock tag teamed with that guy who spit green mist before. No idea if that is what you mean as him in the main event picture, I doubt he will ever be in the chase for the title for a year or two at least (Assuming he evolves).
