The Place: WWE Raw

The Championship: The WWE Championship

The Time: 10 seconds

Poor Zack Ryder just can't seem to catch a break. You'd think that a man with a legion of loyal social media followers and the ability to do a 450 splash would have an easier time of things, but alas, that is not the case.

One of Ryder's more humiliating moments came courtesy of an edition of Monday Night Raw. Zack Ryder was just beginning to enjoy something of a fan following, and those same fans were clamoring for more opportunities for the Long Island Iced Z. Unfortunately, when that opportunity came it didn't go as any of the fans hoped.

It took the Great White just ten seconds to lay out Ryder with a Brogue kick and get the one two three. A somewhat ignominious chapter in the history of Zack Ryder.

Sheamus has been the benefactor of two such high profile squash matches.
