Also, I've never felt like the Ryder/Ziggler matches were ever "formulaic". They all seemed rather fresh and new. Ryder isn't the best wrestler, no. But he's steadily improving. Working with Ziggler has really helped him. I'm thinking back to the latest match and really having a hard time seeing how it was formulaic at all. It was pretty fantastic how it was presented, and it was the perfect culmination to Ryder's entire road to the US Title.
Ryder gets beat on, sometimes obeying the Steamboat babyface principle. He does the big boot, he goes the "knee to the face" reveral, he doesthe leg drop. Hoganesque minus hulking up.

edwardsdv and swordz9 are basically the comedy heel tag team of this topic, why would people be taking them seriously?
