He's so big, he looks like he might have trouble reaching behind to wipe his ass. Kind of ruins it for me. Everytime he does some awesome move, I just think how smelly he must be, and feel bad for the guy having to work with him.

Agreed. He's too menacing to have a valet who would wipe his ass.

I'm liking Ryback at the moment.

I'm just not too keen on people associating him with Goldberg, just because he's a dominant bald man. The same can be said with people comparing Mason Ryan to Batista. Just because he has a physique that's similar to Batista's and he wears trunks. (For the record, I still think he looks absolutely nothing like Batista)

It just seems like these days, nobody can be original. The fans always need to associate some sort of "similarity" to a current wrestler with one from the past.

Anyway, I digress. Ryback is fantastic at the moment and (SmackDown Spoiler)
SPOILER: show
I like how they're slowly introducing him to actual competition on SmackDown, beginning with his match against Derrick Bateman. Also, the majority of what he says can be marketable. Such as "FEED....ME....MORE" and what he said on SmackDown this week, which is so far, my favourite of everything he's said, "FEED THE MACHINE".

I can see "FEED THE MACHINE" appearing on T-Shirts in the future.


So the only way is up for Ryback right now, and I look forward to see what happens with him down the line.

Because he's a dominant bald man who looks intimidating and powers through jobbers with such simililarity that Smackdown is clumsily dubbing out the GOLDBERG chants. He does have a similar build and look and now gimmick... close enough to warrant the chants.

It just seems like these days, nobody can be original. The fans always need to associate some sort of "similarity" to a current wrestler with one from the past.

To be fair, he looks LESS like Bats now with hair, but on his debut, even in street clothes... actually, ESPECIALLY in street clothes, his look and build was close enough to fool a lot of people on first glance (which was also aided by the fact there was rampant speculation he was about to return at that time).

It's not that we're particularly bashing Skip by saying "Goldberg did it first!!" Hell, this ride is quite enjoyable, but still the similarities are definitely present.

It would be like if they gave Darren Young a gimmick where he wears a combination lock and chain around his neck and wears jorts in his matches, and more importantly added a spot to his moveset where he makes a superman comeback with 5 moves of doom at the end.

Also, remember all the flack Goldberg got initally for basically being thought of as WCW's answer to Stone Cold... a bad-ass bald guy with a goatee and plain black ring attire.

I'd make a very good one. I'd easily be able to tell people apart, while other witnesses would be confused and struggling, thinking someone looked like someone else.

I remember the Austin/Goldberg comparisons back in the day, and knowing WCW, I wouldn't be surprised if the Goldberg character was all intentional, just to compete with the WWF and Austin at the time.

But you're clearly unable to see similarities between people. You would see someone do something and then see the exact same person later and be like "looks nothing like him."
