WWE News: Zack Ryder sports new look and new finisher
Almost every WWE fans was shocked when Zack Ryder got a spot in the Intercontinental Championship match at WrestleMania 32 in Dallas. A former United States Champion and Tag team Champion, Ryder is now performing in NXT, where he has teamed with Mojo Rawley to form a team known as the “Hype Bros”.
Zack Ryder was at the pinnacle of his career in the WWE in 2011. He defeated Dolph Ziggler at TLC that year to capture his first singles title in WWE, the United States Championship.
