WWE is not good at pushing beasts with breasts.
I remember when Mark Henry and Big Show debuted. I remember the clown they made out of Albert. It's like a sickness where they just turn huge guys into jobbers for no reason. |

They think then being a big hoss=instant credibility so beating them means something even tho they job them out relentlessly. Wyatt is a prime modern example of a bruiser body type getting jobbed to holy hell but then presented as a supposed threat immediately there after

Nope.
In this era of social media he would be outted the hatefilled man he was even quicker than he did at UConn. Fired faster than you can Abraham Washington. Remember him? |

The original post suggested a guy like Warrior. Not necessarily the exact same guy right down to the homophobic tirades.

He was kinda cool, but I got tired of him quick as a kid. Wasn't a huge fan of his then, not one now. I hear mixed storied on him as a person too, but that may be largely due to personality conflicts, so I take them with a grain of salt.

Then still no. He'd just be known as a Warrior ripoff.

Never understood why Ryback was such an internet darling.
He did nothing for me. Random, bald guy with a bear. EDIT: I meant "beard". Though he would totally me more interesting if he had a bear instead. |

He had the perfect storm of being one of the few new faces they actually seemed to give a crap about out of WWE's longstanding trend of trotting out all the old guys and consistently reminding everyone that the new guys they have now aren't as good as they were and will never be and them dumping a shit-tier gimmick when he came back from that one injury and giving him the Goldberg push. I wasn't the hugest fan, but I could see the appeal. But, of course, they had to fuck that up by expecting too much too soon and then just dropping his push altogether and have him wallow around in doing stupid shit like becoming another meatshield for CM Punk to not get his revenge on Paul Heyman and tagging with Curtis Axel - anothe person they dropped the ball on. They would repeat this a lot, most recently with Asuka... although we shall see how this championship run goes, even though it looks like she's just going to be fed to Ronda instead of getting built back to her former prominence. |
