They could have played up Tensai being a huge challenge for Ryback. Could have had Tensai actually seem like he was threatening Ryback some. Only for Ryback to rally and "overcome" and then pick Tensai up, which would be even bigger and more impressive after taking more punishment in the match.

They could then play it up that Ryback faced a major challenge here, but still managed to come out on top. They then could be all "is Ryback ready for bigger things?!" (IE CM Punk or whatever)

With a short squash match, though, it was just "Yep. There he goes. Ryback winning again. Tensai jobbing again."

Could have been "Oh shit Tensai is a monster, but holy shit here comes Ryback and WHOA THAT WAS AWESOME!"
Yes. This reminds me of how Goldberg plowed through Wrath on a warm Monday Nitro in September 1997... except Tensai wasn't injured by the squash.
