First star not in the top spot or as a really well known name to take advantage of the internet for his benefit. Then managed to sell a lot of merchandise even though he's barely on tv which means it had to have grown enough to keep the level of spending high enough for the WWE to care.

Is his character a main event level one, though? I think the element of it that wants to be a WWE Superstar and succeed in this business more than anything is part that would work; but that the goofiness of it may not.
Ryder is a great option, though, because merchandise sales are an important factor when considering a guy's overall marketability. His ring work is good, he's young, and he's charismatic. I think the guy needs to work with Paul Heyman on how to cut promos, though.
