[Yes, I'm a Zack fan, and I hear people say it every day, "Zack Ryder should be WWE Champion." Well, odds are, he will never be. Except maybe in this thread. That's right, I'm going to simply book Zack Ryder to the top of the WWE, and then keep him there, week by week, starting with his debut on ECW on May 5th, 2009, all the way in the future, when he retires (As in, when I write him to). I'll take the approach of doing what is like the Road To Wrestlemania on Smackdown! Vs RAW 2011; probably make a backstage segment, and then narrate his actions throughout the show. NOTE: He was 23 when he debuted on ECW, and his birthday is the 14th, 9 days after his debut.]
WWE ECW; May 5th, 2009
Zack Ryder is backstage at ECW. He approaches General Manager Tiffany...
Ooh, how's it goin'? What's your name baby?
Excuse me? Zack, I'm your General Manager.
Oh. Well what's your name? Are you busy after the show? Because the Long Island Iced Z can cure your empty schedule.
Yes, I'm busy. And my name is Tiffany. What do you want?
I already asked yo--
Besides a date.
I want to make an impact here in the ECW. How about a match?
You want a match? Fine. You can face off against Finlay on Superstars.
But what about tonight? Do you expect this Broski to sit here and do nothing all night?
Hmm...we have a 10 minute time slot coming up. You can go out to the ring, make an open challenge, and wrestle. But you have to have that match done by the end of that time slot. Here, I'll go with you to the ring.

Zack walks to the ring, doing a typical entrance of his new character. He signals the LI symbol, says "Woo woo woo" a few times, and grins like the cocky kid that he is.
Woo woo woo, you know it. Guess what? Zack Ryder is now the Long Island Iced Z. Spiked hair, perfectly tanned skin, and the best damn tights you've ever seen. Now, I wasn't booked for a match tonight, but Tiffany here says we've got a time slot open where I can make an open challenge to make an impact here in ECW. So, any takers?
A short amount of time, about a minute, passes.
No? Is everyone afraid to take me on? C'mon, it isn't tha--

Alright Zack. Here's your opponent, The World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry. You have six minutes. Good luck!
*The Bell Rings* Mark runs right at Zack, but isn't successful, as Zack hides in the ropes. Mark backs off, and Zack jumps out of the ring when he charges again. Zack is out collecting himself outside of the ring, as Tiffany yells to him, "Only five and a half minutes left Zack!" With the inspiration of the GM, he runs back in, and is met with a clothesline from Henry. Mark picks him up and headbutts him fiercely. He picks Zack up and hits a powerslam. He taunts to the crowd. Henry uses his weight to his advantage now, as he steps on the fallen Ryder's chest. Ryder writhes in pain. Mark picks him up, and tosses him out of the ring carelessly. Zack rolls around, as he hit his chest on the outer barrier. He looks over at Tiffany as she makes a motion pointing to her wrist, reminding him of the time. She yells to him again, "Three and a half!" He rolls into the ring and quickly dropkicks the big man in the knee. As Henry falls to his knees, Zack backs up, runs at him, and hits a big boot to Marks head. He runs over to him and makes a quick cover attempt. 1...2...kickout. Marks kickout throws Ryder halfway across the ring! Zack gets up, and connects with a DDT before Henry can get all the way to his feet. He looks over at Tiffany, "Two fifteen!" He struggles, but lifts the giant, and tries to whip him to the ropes. Mark stops him, and shakes his finger, mouthing "Nuh-uh." He tosses Zack to the ropes, who leapfrogs over Henry. Zack hits the Rough Ryder leg lariat on Mark. He goes for a pin, grinning. 1...2...3! Zack celebrates in the ring, and Tiffany makes her way in. She shakes Zack's hand, and says...
Congratulations Zack. You actually won. And you did it in time!
Actually, Miss General Manager, I did it with a minute to spare.
They make their way backstage, and begin to talk outside of the locker room...
Zack, I'm surprised you won. Mark Henry is about twice your size. You know, I was really only saying I was busy so you wouldn't ask, but--
No need to say it. I know what you want. You want the Iced Z. Let me go shower, and you and the Broski will go hit the town.
At my car after the show, Zack.
Yes, Miss General Manager.
He grins, as she waves to him while she walks away. He enters his locker room and showers.
[The show ends, Zack and Tiffany go out, etc. Zack has a match on Superstars, so that will follow this. Until then.]
