What's Wrong With Alex Riley?
« on: February 19, 2012, 11:04:20 pm »
What has happened to this guy?

Why did his push vanish??

He has gone from feuding with The Miz, and beating him on PPV...

....to returning to NXT as well as jobbing on Superstars, numerous times.

Was the guy just pushed to soon?  Did the fans lose interest?

Personally I just don't think he works as a face.  He has the arrogant, unlikeable grin.  He just looks like a heel, much like Orton's first face turn, the guy is just hard to like.

I think he could work as a face. Remember the night he turned on The Miz and beat the **** out of him? The crowd were loving it and chanting his name.

If they gave him more of a personality and the usual suggestion of letting guys talk more and come up with their wn stuff, he could be popular. The subdued reaction he got in his own hometown at Capitol Punishment may have hurt him, but that shouldn't be blamed on him, as that crowd was terrible generally.

I think just now, he's just another guy in trunks with a generic name for a lot of people.

Miz had so much heat, anyone would have got cheered at that point.

Great point. completely forgot about him.

WWE i swear pull names out of hats from week to week who they are gonna push. they have no patience anymore. Don't let guys come up.

Zach Ryder probably got Riley's push and he sucks.
