Layeth The Smackdown!
Remember this guy?
Yes, I do too. The last time we saw Riley was on Raw a couple of weeks getting squashed by Lord Tensai. Now before I get into Alex Riley, please take the time to watch this video from OffTheRopesShow, who started this movement. Please guys, no immature comments, just listen to what they have to say.

Now that you have watched that video you would know why this exact title needs to trend during Raw. Let's face it here, there are many new guys coming up from FCW and as we all know it's Spring Cleaning Time, where most of the lower-card guys are future endeavored. Sadly, Alex Riley could be at risk here and if he does get released, it would be a huge waste of potential talent. Alex Riley is a guy that was very over in the Summer from feuding with Miz and still to this day he gets a decent pop every time he comes out of the curtain even from not being on TV in such a long time. This guy had everything going for him, his music, his look, and his ability to even outshine The Miz sometimes.
Now, I understand why he was taken off TV. He was a little too green in the ring and seemed to have sandbagged Swagger's Gutwrench Powerbomb, which is the rumored reason why he was taken off TV and put in the doghouse. However, since then I can honestly say that Riley has gotten a lot better in the ring and seems to have learned to slow down a bit and is a lot less sloppy than he was in the Summer. He looked great in the match against Tensai and he has put on good matches on Superstars with guys like Drew McIntyre and Michael McGillicutty.
Alex Riley is a guy that could have been a huge babyface and he can still be huge. WWE needs baby faces that can get over and Alex Riley was getting over. He is exactly what WWE's mid-card desperately needs, solid babyface mid-carders. He got a huge ovation at the Royal Rumble when he entered second and for a second there I thought they were actually serious about pushing him again, until he was eliminated. All he needs is to be featured on Smackdown and re-enter a feud with Miz, which could benefit both guys at this point to be honest. OTRS has done this before with #SaveYoshiTatsu, which was somewhat of a success because Tatsu did get on TV and was trending worldwide over Lord Tensai.
So, before it is too late, I agree with OTRS and think we should show WWE that we do care about these guys not getting a shot like Hawkins, Reks, and McIntyre and give them that chance by making this trend. All you need to do is use #PushAlexRiley during your tweets on Raw tomorrow and that's it. If we can actually get this trending, we can save a career that is full of potential and one that hasn't been given the chance to show its true value to the company. Sorry if this is in the wrong section, feel free to move it. Thanks for listening.
