What Happens To Ryback Now?

Ryback did not win the WWE Championship against CM Punk on Raw. Punk does indeed look good enough to go against The Rock in a few weeks. But what about Ryback?

Obviously, since it was The Shield that cost Ryback the match, his issues with that group will continue. There are other people who still have issues with the group, including Randy Orton, so finding someone to team with Ryback in this feud will not be a problem.

Due to the recent title change, which I will talk about next time, it does not look like Ryback feuding with Big Show over the title will be an option right now. I still think that would have been a good option. Ryback has a lot of momentum. Continuing it in a big title feud would have been good. Ryback and Big Show could still feud without a title on the line.

Since I'm on the subject of titles, what about Wade Barrett defending the IC title against Ryback? That would be a drop from feuding against CM Punk for the WWE Championship, but Ryback and Barrett have that history. That alone should make for a good feud.

Whatever happens, Ryback is going to get a bit of a depush. It was bound to happen. The issue will be how they keep the ball rolling with him. They obviously cannot let Ryback not want revenge against The Shield. After that, a feud with Barrett would make sense. That should set Ryback on a clear track for at least a few months. I don't picture Ryback getting lost in the shuffle easily, even though this is the time of the year where it sometimes may happen.
