People are under a lot of stress, Bradley.
I remember sometime last year Meltzer said they weren't releasing guys because they didn't want them doing shoot interviews. Ryder seems like the perfect candidate for someone that would immediately do a bitter, creative-exposing shoot, so they keep him around.

He'll do the shoot if he's fired, but he's probably not going to quit his high-paid jobber job for the thousand bucks and a case of Bud Light Limes* he'd get for doing a shoot interview. Even as a jobber, Zack is still making more money than 85% per cent of people who are in the wrestling business.

*I have no idea what shoot interview people are paid, but there's no way it's enough to justify leaving a WWE contract.

They were considering releasing expensive announcers last month but didn't want them to jump to TNA.

I want them to change Paige's gimmick to someone who has never had a friend before and literally does not understand what being someone's friend entailed. That would explain all her behavior with AJ, and lead to several other storylines where people mislead and take advantage of her by lying about what it is.

Team her up with Bayley and I'd pay money.

King of Trios was this weekend and one of the teams was Archibald Peck and 3.0. Unfortunately for them, a big chunk of the crowd took exception to Shane Matthews' regular misogyny on Twitter, so they spent all three nights getting booed despite being faces.

Unfortunately when 3.0 popped up on Steen's Weekend Escapades, Matthews alluded to thinking he doesn't think ladies' wrestlers are worth a drat. He also said that he doesn't understand the hate for Nickelback, and figures everybody must be jumping on the hate bandwagon, because somebody must be buying their records.

Shane Matthews is not a smart man, is what I'm saying.

Last year during SHIMMER at Wrestlecon, LuFisto did a moonsault from the top rope to the floor and missed everyone and busted up her kneecap when she landed on the floor. After that, Shane Matthews went on Twitter and made fun of her multiple times. He also makes fun of them having wishlists and doing custom matches. So, yeah, he's kind of a dick on Twitter, but seemingly a nice guy in person. I can't boo the guy. When I asked him about the booing on Saturday, he basically told me "I only know how to be me". So, I guess he doesn't really care about the booing at all.

I was thinking the exact same thing. They could be friends and wrestle well and it would be pretty good.

And then Eva Marie could drop from the rafters with a baseball bat and somehow impale herself on that baseball bat and die because she is completely terrible at everything other than standing still.

If his gimmick was just him making fun of the fact that all Irish people get lovely stereotype gimmicks, leading to the Irish version of the Nation, that would be pretty cool.

I dunno man, he might have said something like "It's not exactly great that I'm gonna be changing a tire for hours or getting killed in a wheelchair, are we sure we want to go with that?" and then someone threatened to fire him.

If I'm not mistaken Mick Foley talked to Zack Ryder who was bitching about his direction, and Mick asked him if he's actually talked to Vince about it and he said no. So he's either confident Vince is going to pull a JTG where he'll fire him the moment he remembers he exists, or he's just an idiot.
