Seems pretty harmless to me. Then again, so do most of Zack's tweets that people flip out over.

To be fair, a lot of them do have an undertone of "I'm not being used on TV so here's some meaningless thing I'm doing backstage instead."

Oh come on, that's the exact kind of crack almost any snarky face would make at Ryback's expense. Eating and harassing the catering staff were his thing forever. If you need to think about the tweet for a couple of minutes so you can divine the lack of use whining because you're certain its in there someplace, you're just being mean.

Kevin Nash won that. How is Kevin Nash the race baiter there? The Tea Party didn't exist until five minutes after Obama was elected into office despite Bush creating a loving huge deficit after a huge surplus for more than half a decade. They're obviously racially motivated.

American politics scares me with how obviously evil it is.

Considering one of his best friends (Don Callis, who has a bit of an ego) came up with it, you'd think he wouldn't have to ask. And when I say that, that's not kayfabe, he actually devised the thing.

Big E has a very specific kind of goofy face charisma. I've never seen him do serious outside of that brief (yet awesome) period of time when he was stoic and just glared at people when he was mad.

I'm just a sick guy, I'm really just a dirty guy.
Big E's not really good at traditional promos. He's stilted, he seems like he forgets his lines (even if he actually doesn't), looks around awkwardly for no reason, and it never really sounds natural.

But when he's able to bring out a little bit of his personality (on Backstage Fallout, a Howard Cosell impersonation, YO CENA I GOT THE MIC NOW), he's really good. He's probably not going to get that type of promo when they push him to at a higher spot on the card, so he's going to have to improve on regular promos dramatically.
