Rumor: WWE Planning Huge Move For Zack Ryder

The WWE Universe has an extremely interesting dynamic with Zack Ryder. It’s been six years since his peak in popularity in 2012, but a lot of people still defend him. The fact is that aside from a twenty-four-hour Intercontinental Title reign, that was used to get The Miz over, he hasn’t accomplished anything significant with the company for a long time.

Despite that fact, Zack Ryder remains quite popular with the WWE Universe. Some fans argue that is the result of untapped potential that WWE officials refuse to utilize. There is still money in him, which might be of more use to the company in 205 Live. According to a report from RingSideNews, Ryder could be moving to the brand in the near future.

WWE officials are currently looking into adding some new blood into the roster. It was only last week that Mike and Maria Kanellis debuted for the brand. Zack Ryder has the size for the show and could find himself as a top babyface for the brand if the booking is taken seriously. Most people will take Buddy Murphy as an example of what’s possible.

The WWE Universe can be harsh on a performer being ‘demoted’ to 205 Live, especially someone like Zack Ryder who’s been on the main roster for several years. It’s not ideal for everyone, but someone like Ryder can find a greater purpose on the show rather than wait on the sidelines on Raw and SmackDown Live for another opportunity.

Zack Ryder got over with the fans because he made an opportunity for himself. WWE is considering giving him a weekly platform to make his own opportunities and become a more valuable part of the company. Some people might be critical of his position on 205 Live, but it’s something fresh that can be great for Ryder under the right circumstances.
