Zeke is a flat out beast

Re: Bold prediction...

Zeke is a monster but their are way too many people in front of him. Unless if winning King of the Ring has a championship match or something.

I was gonna bump this for you and post the same thing. Though I assumed actually winning the King of the Ring was step 2, this is a big step in the right direction as far as your prediction coming true is concerned.

Re: Bold prediction...

Big Zeke made WWE.coms top 11 to watch in 2011. Bodes well for him. It also bodes real well for my guy Del Rio to top the list. Also happy to see Cody Rhodes at #4 and am shocked that Ted did not make the list at all. Also shocked to see Skip so high.

11. Ezekiel Jackson
10. Tyson Kidd
09. Tamina
08. Alex Riley
07. David Otunga
06. Drew McIntyre
05. Skip Sheffield
04. Cody Rhodes
03. Dolph Ziggler
02. Daniel Bryan
01. Alberto Del Rio

DiBiase has really fallen off the map. I think the first thing they need to do with him is get him away from Maryse and then perhaps move him to SD where he can get a fresh start.

No Evan Bourne? I know he's injured but I'd imagine he'll be back by the Royal Rumble. Another case of where WWE did an awesome job of putting him in the main event on RAW in a tag with Cena and having him get the pin, and then abandoning him (aside from him beating Jericho). Hopefully he gets a nice push when he returns b/c he's really exciting to watch.

Seeing as how I don't follow wrestling as much as I used to, I don't know who half of those guys are.

Its not really creative's fault. I agree that they suck, but Vince micromanages everything. He is the head of creative. They aren't gonna get this guy over. WWE hasn't had a monster get over since Khali and it was the $hi+s. They aren't marketable. They have to be chased by an underdog, and WWE just doesn't book that way anymore. Cena vs. Rock WM 28. There is your angle.

Re: Bold prediction...

The main reason I even predicted Zeke would win a world championship is the fact that he is marketable in two big ways that many WWE Superstars are not. One is obviously his physique, he is basically a more ripped version of Batista. The other is obvious but can't be discussed on this forum, at least not in depth. The WWE needs someone who is marketable in that way and I certainly want to see someone step into that role. Zeke is the best candidate to me out of all the current WWE roster. I'm really pulling for this guy.

It's true that he is marketable in both those ways. But there are also two problems that he has that you are overlooking. One, he's bad in the ring. Two, he's god awful on the mic. I think the IC title is and should be his ceiling. But, the WWE has pushed worse, so we'll see.
