The answer is Goldberg

The reason is booking. WWE had it, ryback's catchphrase was over, people were chanting it, and the fans were getting behind him. If you compare the first 20-30 matches of each you'll hear the crowd and everyone be bought into both. Then WWE lost Cena and they forced Ryback into a spot he wasn't ready for. The first loss didn't hurt him, the second loss didn't kill him, the third, the fourth, and the fifth finished him off and the only way to salvage it was to turn him heel and give him a catchphrase?!? Say what you will about WCW but they took their time with Goldberg. Let him shine as a completely separate entity from the title, until they were ready to commit to him and a LONG title run.

The pop/feud with punk was exactly what WWE needed to actually create a star with short-term booking and they blew it. And how did they evidence to help rebuild (yes rebuild a 5 month old character) ...... Mark Henry. Punk and Cena to Mark Fucking Henry....and then...... HE LOST!!

They had the lightning, the had the bottle, and they were going into Mania season.....and they couldn't put it together. In fact, they used an entire mania to tell us none of the new wrestlers aren't worth our time. None benefited from The Rock (let that sink in), HHH continued to beg us all to put him on the level with rock and Austin 15 years later, and the newest hottest star in a long time was sat on, literally, by mark Henry.

I agree with that other stuff you said, but I don't think this is exactly what happened with Fandango. They embraced it, but they made it lame. They wanted to capitalize, but it seemed pretty clear that they had no idea why people were into it. When their force fed segments fell flat, they backed off a bit, still seeming pretty confused by the whole thing.

I'll make this point: Ryback actually paid his dues and doesn't seem to have an issue with working with anyone.

Goldberg "Doesn't Do Comedy."

"paying dues" became irrelevant a long long time ago

I was at a WCW house show in philly as a kid and Goldberg gave the giant a jackhammer and it was beautiful. afterwards he got up on the turnbuckle and looked into my soul. I probably peed a little

Can we at least agree that Ultimate Warrior is the sexiest, though?
