Is Mason Ryan In Trouble?
A good friend of this blog/longtime contributor, David, emailed me a set of photos he took of Mason Ryan from a NXT event he attended recently in Florida. David has been going to NXT shows frequently but sadly, he's noticed that Mason Ryan seems to be moving down the organization by being used to promote some of the newer, up-and-coming stars like Sami Zane. In this match, Mason (real name Barri Griffiths) dominates his younger opponent using a series of punishing holds and moves, but in the end, Zane pinned the Welsh giant and took the win. Thanks for the pics, David! (More pics from David are coming soon!)
I certainly hope not! But if so, it's what I fear happens too often to talented wrestlers who get into the grips of the WWE. They don't seem to grok these guys. Which why I'd advice Devitt, among others, to stay far, far away!
ReplyDeleteA shame if that is true. Never did like the long hair though.
ReplyDeleteStill, if he decided to return to Wales he would be one of the top dogs in UK wrestling; or he could go back into the family business as a REAL undertaker.
Mason, NOOO!! You know, commenters on other wrestling sites thought I was "trolling" when I said Mason Ryan was my favorite. But I really, really hope the best for him. (Ad I love the long hair!)
ReplyDeletewhen you start jobbing on NXT, it's not looking good for your wwe career
