Zack Ryder is backstage with Santino in a funny segment, which includes him and Santino discussing Rock and Cena. Ryder asks Santino to sign his petition. He does.
Dolph Ziggler vs. Mason Ryan:
What I Liked:
Finally, Ryan gets a match that has meaning to it. If they are going to push him as a face and legit competitor, he needs to begin to face opponents worthy. Also, Ziggler on the microphone is great, his comedy is dry yet effective, and he really has no weakness in his game.
What I Disliked:
The lack of match here. The DQ after only a few minutes is ridiculous and wasted a segment. We realized that Ziggler is now in the Survivor Series match with team Barrett, which I dislike for a few reasons. Also, Ryan is simply not getting over with the crowd. He seems fake and forced to be a face because of the lack of depth on Raw. I really think he could be a big star, but he is so far away right now it is not even funny. There are many limitations with him right now, and he is caution in the ring. I just do not understand why they push him over guys like Ryder, Morrison, and other faces who have more talent. Even though Morrison fed Ziggler back to Ryan, maybe they should have given Dolph three challengers at Survivor Series, and build a match around him. Instead, he is going to be wasted.
Grade: D
