I always thought two things:

1. Ryder is a guy you just can't hate
2. Noid is a guy who doesn't hate anyone

Clearly, I'm wrong with both.

Personally, I've always liked Ryder. Sure, he'll never be the top guy and even I don't think he's that good that he could be the top guy, but seeing him challenging for either the Intercontinental or United States Championships just feels right to me.

But I do think a change is needed. He's been pretty much the same since around 2009. He's been this happy and somewhat goofy underdog for what has felt like forever. There's a new underdog on the scene and that's Sami Zayn. Ryder can't really be the underdog anymore.

These days, he's pretty much just himself, whereas before he had the gimmick of an arrogant Long Island "guido". I think maybe he should return to that but with more focus being on his arrogance than the whole "guido" thing.

Have him forget about the fans and claim that they were just jumping on the bandwagon when he was rising up the ranks during the run of his YouTube show, but as soon as he fell to the bottom, they forgot about him. Have him cheat, attack people and even objectify women to a degree and claim they can't wrestle and so on. (Which in turn, will have the women "prove him wrong" yadda yadda yadda)

Just have Ryder be a dick and chase the Intercontinental Title until eventually he cheats to win it. Seeing a heel Ryder title run will be different and refreshing. Better than him winning a championship and then the announce team being shocked and yelling that he's achieved his dream, and then the next night, Ryder constantly reminds us that he's wanted to win that championship since he was a little boy watching a former champion win the championship.

He did it both times when he won the US and IC Titles.
