HBKevin Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I stopped watching Raw for a few weeks before Hell in a Cell. It was roughly from, I think, the start of October to the start of November. I had seen the first hints of Ryback having a conflict with Punk, but he was an unknown guy, it seemed (of course I remembered him from The Nexus, but still). When I started watching again, he'd had a Hell in a Cell match with Punk, and the crowd was on fire for him, with all the "Feed me more" stuff. And his push really hasn't slowed down at all. So could anyone explain exactly what happened? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrockMeatCannon Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Well basically he started to get involved with Punk's bisiness with Lawler and that, then started staring down with the WWE Champion. His push finally started when he started giving Punk his finishing maneaver in the ring (with is now popularly known as Shell Shocked by the way). Week after week they started having brawl normaly leading to Ryback executing his finisher and started having matches against eachother, which were normally ended in DQ. They finally gave him a title shot at HIAC which Ryback lost thanks to Brad Maddox (you know, that developmental wrestler who was also a ref). Ryback ended up getting involved with Punk's then-rival John Cena who was the No. 1 contender for the title and had a few stare-downs over the championship with a confused CM Punk watching. Then, eventually it led to a triple threat match. And I think that's pretty much everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Counting Lights Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Ryback debuts, goes on a few month win streak, seemingly starts a rivalry with IC Champion Miz, but then Cena gets injured so they have Ryback face Punk instead, turning him into a main eventer.

Muur Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Ryback beats Jobbers for Months, then looks at Punk backstage for a few weeks and then gets a Title Shot. That's pretty much it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WWE botched the name apparently due to not knowing the concept of past tense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brahma Bull Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 He also caused the arena to shake when he clotheslined Punk one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazman™ Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Cena got injured just after Night Of Champions so Ryback took his place against Punk for a few weeks. Ryback got over with the crowd in a big way during that time and has remained in the title picture since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Nakamura Posted December 16, 2012 Report Share Posted December 16, 2012 Ryback beats Jobbers for Months, then looks at Punk backstage for a few weeks and then gets a Title Shot. That's pretty much it. Lmfao, the simplicity of the explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HBKevin Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Ok, thanks. I wondered if there was more to it than just the staredowns, but I guess not. He is just really over, so I wondered how. It must be his catchphrase. It is a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wut Da Hell Posted December 17, 2012 Report Share Posted December 17, 2012 Doesnt matter. Ryback is slowly drifting off to the mid carder slot. He's just a filler until the big boys arrive. (Rock/Cena/Maybe Brock) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
