Zack Ryder's Last ReZort - Episode # 3

[@JustAlyx]

I'm intrigued with the direction he's taking his character now. If he's killing off the goofy happy-go-lucky, broski, what is he going to do next?

[@jayjayjames2332]

Work Indy shows in front of 50 people.

[@jefferynobles6935]

He needs to stop saying bro and his catch phrases. He needs something totally new. Kevin Sullivan needs to teach him the dark side. LOL

[@darthdaver868]

Form a stable with Miz and Ziggler apparently

[@SyaoranQ8]

David McAllister heel faction maybe??

[@jefferynobles6935]

Steal the crazy scientist approach from TNA. I'm sure he could it off better than them.

[@CrystalFissure]

Fantastic work as usual. Since I started watching from Episode 1 of Z!TLIS when it debuted, I never expected it to turn out like this. You've done all the work to become relevant and popular, only to be pushed off a grand stage literally and figuratively. The new series really gives you a chance for fans who may not know the story behind your sudden character burial in 2012 to be reacquainted with Zack Ryder. Keep up the good work.

[@damashi2]

It's almost legendary how badly Zack Ryder got buried.

[@MrPiss99]

Him and Sandow.

[@TheProBacon]

Epi Nirvana Don't get me started on Sandow...

[@tinacarter1255]

Catalin Dinca At least Sandow has time on television..

[@TheProBacon]

True, but not how i would like to see him on television..

[@charliemulholland2928]

Well this series was fun while it lasted

[@dmc16336]

That's what I was thinking too...

[@paddyt007]

He was asked what happened to this series on twitter and replied "I don't know". Wonder what that means.

[@dmc16336]

paddyt007 Probably Vince told him to knock it off or the next Ryder push will be him pushing a broom after Raw...

[@paddyt007]

If he has been told to stop he needs to show some balls and do it anyway. Not gonna get anywhere not taking risks.

[@anasshahid224]

Yes sir

[@MiaMonr0e]

Love that you're showing the contrast between the past and present characters. Zack Ryder as a no nonsense, bad ass superstar works. It'd be amazing if your repackaging was worked into an angle on Raw to reacquaint you with the fans. R.I.P. Broski

[@BocookGaming]

What I find most depressing is, you can tell that Zack Ryder wants to be there in WWE, and is treated like a whipping boy, while people that just came back for a quick-and-easy check and worldwide spotlight will be in two of WrestleMania XXX's main events. They made sure they killed the Ryder Revolution. I hope the Ryder Evolution takes you where you need to go.

[@1Paraj]

With good reason

[@kieronnnnnnn]

I don't often comment on videos and I'm not sure if you'll see this comment but just a few things (likely a lot of what you've already heard but just my thoughts) No matter where your career will go from here I will always admire and respect the sheer effort and determination you have shown to try and succeed. Rather than simply collecting a pay check like I'm sure many would be happy to do, you wanted to make more of yourself and leave your mark on this business that many of us are passionate about. I watched all of your videos and what I saw was a guy who wasn't willing go down without a fight and despite being presented with a gimmick that most guys would have probably been released with or never gotten a following with, you made it work and made it your own. From making your own T shirts to making your own shows and doing anything to try and fight the system which has been holding you down. Some people will say 'well, they did give you a title reign or did put you in a high profile storyline' but first of all, you were 'given' that, you strived and clawed to get such a following and so much support (off your own back) that even the most ignorant, unreasonable powers that be had no choice in the end but to stop ignoring the deafening We Want Ryder chants, often during shows you weren't even on, and actually give you a shot. Finally, when that happened around 2 years ago I thought the powers that be were finally going to listen and giving you a fair shot. Instead what happened was yes, they gave you a brief run with the US title and featured you in one top storyline for s short time but lets analyze that for a moment. Top storyline maybe, but how anyone can argue that it was beneficial for a guys career for the fans to see him get completely played by his storyline girlfriend, get destroyed by Kane, lose his US title a mere month or so after winning it and get ZERO retribution for any of it just amazes me. Looking back at it, it seems clear to me that what the company were doing was not to support and 'reward' your hard work to get recognized and break through, but to just try and destroy your character in every possible way and derail all of that momentum. It's almost like you were punished for proving people wrong and getting over on your own, without all the pushes and unfair opportunities that many other, less-deserving superstars get. The sad thing is, yes I think a fair few supporters of you and the Ryder Revolution have unfortunately drifted off or turned against you which I think shows that WWE kind of got what they wanted in the end. They saw the momentum you had going and because they didn't like that you did that yourself and in spite of all crap they presented you, that they took it upon themselves to do all they could to shut down the momentum and turn those fans against you. It's ironic the amount of interviews where the likes of Triple H etc are going on about needing superstars to branch out and really show that they want to make it and with you that was exactly that, yet for some reason, rather than support you and try to make you a star, they decided to do everything they could to destroy you.. inspiring stuff from a company that bangs on about anti-bullying. Anyway, I could go on forever about how frustrated it makes me but I'll stop now. Even if you don't get given an opportunity to excel in the future and by opportunity I mean a fair one where you're role isn't to just be beaten up all the time and get played by divas, at least you know that you did all you could and more to break the mold and make more of yourself and I respect you a lot for that, as I'm sure many other people do as well. Keep fighting, scratching and clawing... the business needs more people like you sir. Kieron.

[@Randomninja47]

You can do it Zack! This is really interesting and I can't wait for more on the development of your new direction!

[@HunterRaynor]

LET'S START A NEW REVOLUTION #WEWANTZACK

[@mr.lightsout1980]

+Hunter Raynor agreed

[@tendercomrade2330]

I got goose bumps when he said "serious bro..." woo woo woo you know it.

[@MaximoMachismo]

Like I always say, Zack. We all support you 100%. Good things come to good people who deserve it and you're one of the best people who absolutely deserves it. WE BELIEVE IN YOU

[@cameronmaddox98]

R.I.P Broski. Welcome to the world, new Zack Ryder

[@mikebob6464]

Absolutely the right move and the right direction. Good move man.

[@SuperUltimateGangsta]

WWE should really respect ryder... especially since he beat cancer AND got his dream to bevome a WWE superstar

[@ArrowmadeLilMarc]

Never knew he had cancer

[@GWDowns]

ArrowmadeLilMarc He didn't. He went out and found cancer and beat it on the mean streets of Long Island.

[@kevinambriz4556]

RIP #Broski. 😢 #LastReZort 2009-2013

[@vh9network]

WWE should have made the Internet title belt an actual belt to be challenged. Wasted opportunities in this Reality Era.

[@1Paraj]

that would be the biggest load of crap in the history of entertainment.

[@vh9network]

Your hyperbole is the load of crap. What problem do you have with a belt who's champion is determined by the internet community?

[@1Paraj]

vh9network first of all the iwc has their heads up their asses. Secondly, thanks for trying to sound "intellectual" and "one upping me in a verbal quarrel". Third, it means nothing. Has no history or historical significance. Fourth, it's just a spur of the moment, bull shit created belt to help try to put over a superstar who wasn't gifted or talented enough to get by on his own, and he failed at it so the belt has zero prestige. Fifth, It would degrade wrestling history and lower the prestige of other worthy titles already present, not just in wwe, but in ALL wrestling promotions. Lastly, the internet should never be allowed to determine who gets to be champions. It's full of biased, childish, fickle, flaky, band wagon hopping, ignorant, pompous, arrogant, and all around annoying smarks who think they know the business or what's best for it. But hey, don't take my word for it. While there are things that are left in the air in this business, that for one thing is not one of 'em. I know they'll never grant that. But if you still have strong feelings about it, we'll just see in years to come if the wwe will let this actually go to fruition.

[@thatdude3822]

vh9network are u stupid?

[@johnnyguevin7888]

vh9network if not a belt that would be able to be challenged but had enough sense to with permission from Zach Ryder himself release version of the internet championship belt as an official replica belt you can buy

[@jakejones7495]

Yes Zack every week ill be watching raw and Smackdown and when i see you i'm gonna cheer my heart out for my favorite WWE superstar Zack Ryder

[@Y4J]

I'm glad he's going out and doing something new and fresh. Change the hair as well. Look forward to the new Ryder.

[@DavidBoquet]

I am a Zack Ryder fan. Always have been. Always will be. I like the persona. What I like more is how hard he works. I respect that. Woo Woo Woo! You know it!

[@pcwmoondoggie]

Hope we can see more of Ryder at his top form like he was when he was the US Champion. Bret was once told that talent can't be stopped. Don't forget that either Ryder!!!

[@theperfect1094]

That was dark... Very dark... But this new Ryder is better than most gimmicks in the WWE at the moment! This potential faction with Ziggler, Miz and Ryder has to happen!

[@davispl5]

Hope it doesn't end up in a bunch of losers like 3MB

[@Alonzorion]

I love you Zack, this is all a bit sad to watch. :C

[@danniebear87]

Wow. RIP Broski Zack Ryder. Sad to see him gone but I'm really loving this more serious side of Zack.

[@superdragonrana]

Loving the this 'new' Zack Ryder

[@lawrenceblunden428]

I love this show.

[@SloopYGO]

Awesome! WE WANT RYDER!

[@Ivy_Writer]

He is the only guy I can think of who is actively trying to get his push again. I can't recall anyone else that tried this. I was late on the Zack Ryder train when I got back into watching the WWE, and I want to see more of him!

[@The29Dave]

What's depressing is that even if this video got 1million views, it still would not be enough for management to actually do something with him.

[@danesesse]

Yer it would mean the company would get angry at him

[@KrispyChurro]

New theme song new attitude and take no crap from anybody and you can see yourself at least going for the U.S title. Have decent promos and feuds go for the I.C for the bigfer titles I think you really gotta give it all which I know you can Zack, but we all gotta start small. Good luck and hope they get you in to something light at least

[@ShammyWoWLoL]

Do what you gotta do to get back Zack. WWE fucked up a lot of your shit when they took away your channel/jobbed you to new upcoming guys. They just didn't use your talent to it's potential.

[@ShammyWoWLoL]

1 month later...it looks like WWE just pulled the plug on Zack's attempt to make it. Shame oh well I hope you do good in TNA/RoH/NJW or wherever you go Zack.

[@kevinsmiley7069]

ShammyWoWLoL Zach is back woo woo woo you know it

[@MattHardyV1]

@@ShammyWoWLoL or every indie PW scene..

[@thevibesgaming1]

This is so much better. This evolution is exactly what you needed to get back over, and I can only hope the fanbase responds the way they did the first time. It worked with Zack Ryder the broski, it worked with Daniel Bryan, and it can work with serious Zack Ryder too! You seriously need to hijack a segment of RAW this week and show the first video in the series. The audience will really respond to it.

[@Live-fb6mn]

I wish he would post more of this.

[@Dawn0fTheShred]

Gets better every week, need more!!

Nostalgia! Loved Z! True Long Island Story, so many good memories watching it, you’re the man Matt Cardona! Happy to see you shining and doing well champ 😊

[@theblackarrow9347]

The Real you is amazing

[@AMGamerTV]

This is brilliant! I really hope something happens for you soon with this awesome new dark serious "anti-hero" character. Loved the ending. The old Ryder is DEAD! WWWIKI

[@cypheraine17]

Feel sad for Zack. Damn. What a tragic story.

[@MattCharisma1991]

Money. Zack Ryder is just money. Why WWE doesn't see this, I don't know. Why they continue to push guys like Sheamus, I don't know. PUSH RYDER.

[@SirMarcMatthews]

..... But not off a stage.

[@DJackAlacks]

I watched you on Superstars March 7. You still got the fans to react and that's a good thing. I don't really know what happens off-camera and behind the scenes so all I can do is wish you the best!

[@pkaboy111]

I really hope the wwe gives you another chance you're still one of my favorites zack you can do it I believe in you you have a lot of talent in you

[@TheJordanWS]

These just keep getting better! Granted, I loved the goofiness of everyone's favorite Broski but I'm hoping this more serious side of Zack will translate onto TV

[@alfonsoadiletta2999]

Bring back the old Zack Rider (If they let u), It's your real character, I know that is not part of your personality anymore but u can be Internet champion again in this new youtube era.

[@RyanLaFalce]

[@songriters]

Man I'm loving the new you I hope this gets you somewhere you are so underrated keep up the good promos

[@1VincenzoC]

Zack,this is show is EPIC.

[@rik9068]

The legend is alive!

[@boonski]

I really like this new you. Your old character was goofy and I didn't like him too much, but he did something I liked, he took his career into his own hands and forced WWE's hand. Then he sold out and the show plummeted into the ground and his career went with it. This new serious darker attitude is by far better and shows just how good you can be. Here's hoping for a long push.

[@TheMattCardona]

There was no selling out. Was forced to move the show to WWE channel.

[@boonski]

LongIslandIcedZ Oh. Well that's just shitty of them. Because at that point the show had gone downhill. Here's hoping they use you right.

[@BobbyJericho]

boonski Zack was the first to say that the show jumped the shark back then anyway!

[@tae1625]

WWE channel didn't like what he was doing and saying about WWE itself either that or they just needed a another series to post on their channel

[@boonski]

Viper Cole I'd say both.

[@prowrestling_k.z]

[@reactionlulz3740]

Come on Zack you got this

[@ARHZONE]

Zack Ryder is a great talent who is just being held back by his character right now. Only if the WWE stopped pushing those who they have already pushed for years now(Cena, Orton, etc) and started pushing great fresh talents like Ryder and Ziggler. I know they are doing this with the Shield and Wyatts and such, but still. They have many individual talents who have much potential, but they are just letting them sit in the back, collecting dust, struggling to get by while old talents get everything and these fresh talents only get feed the scraps.

[@HangTheDj3000]

Barely watching this now (just got out of school) and I personaly always though you were amazing, even if WWE didn't think so. Keep on pushing, you'll get there.....eventually. Lots of love, from me.

[@Stax1138]

Sick! Getting real in here!

[@modbayan4247]

Character change feels very natural, keep it up bro, time to get serious. 100% behind you, dont listen to the bandwagon fans and the haters and take your future in your own hands, woo wo wait forgot thats over lol

we are with you zack and thats serious bro

[@HenrySchecker]

I swear the three guys who I want to see the most are Ziggler, Miz, and Zack Ryder. Start a feud with Big E and take that fool's title! IC champion Zack Ryder!

[@TimmyTickle]

It's rumored that the 3 guys you mentioned will start a heel stable called "The Dizgruntled Employeez" (spelling changed to reflect that all their names have a Z in it) who will feud with faces who they claim are being unfairly pushed, such as those with cartoonish 80s babyface gimmicks.

[@AllHailKingKurt]

Tim Mackie That could make for a interesting heel stable if done right, or it could be a total flop if WWE just turns them into another 3mb

[@pan4obas]

Absolutely badass, keep it up man

[@SimplyTheBestCSGO]

i got chills watching this lol

[@RobiePAX]

Well, Russev didn't give Ryder a push :P

[@TylerRickersonFilms]

they should give him the AJ Styles lone wolf gimmick.... just sayin

[@TheMasterOE]

I was just thinking before the video ended, "He should've showed his old self in the coffin", but you beat me to it! I'm enjoying this. You can already see the difference in your, "Broski" gimmick compared to the things you're been doing on ,"Last ReZort" keep up the good work, Zack! This is awesome stuff. I think you should change up the way you speak though it still sounds like you're that Broski.

[@AMQUEZ]
