That whole Ryback thing was surreal. He was even announced as part of the opening 'Shield vs. three faces' six man tag at one point, only to be taken out of it so that he could face Henry. The idea seemed to surely be that he'd have a 'WrestleMania Moment' by getting Henry up for the ShellShock - except logic dictated that a) he needed to then go on and win, plus b) Big Show would've been a better and more impressive candidate for the lift anyway.

EDIT: and this is after the CM Punk HIAC match that had already nearly killed him off once!

The Ryback beating Big Show for the World Title after a mammoth Shellshock would have probably done a lot to repair him after the CM Punk thing, but of course Show had to drop the title a few months beforehand so they could do that bonkersĀ Alberto vs Swagger match we were all clamouring for.

I didn't actually mind the finish! Big lad tries to lift even bigger lad overhead, leverage and weight is too much. Would have been a great finish in a 1980s TV or MSG house show match.

But at WM 29 Ryback should have slaughtered Menry to regain some momentum after the previous 6 months. Instead they have him lose then try and rebuild him the next night.

Menry could have been squashed and still regained his momentum with that famous angle a few months later.

Nah after the initial "huh?" I was fine with Asuka finally losing on a high profile show. Could have easily recovered and had an excellent series with Charlotte which of course never happened.

Mugging Asuka AND Charlotte off against Carmella on the other hand was bonkers. Asuka in particular looked a right plank.
