Alex Riley? ...REALLY?!?!?

Okay, I don't understand all the hype about him. It's like as soon as he turned on Miz people think he's good. It wasn't that long ago these same people were mocking his shitty promos, talking about how he was annoying and couldn't wrestle, now a lot of them are listing him among their favorite superstars. So, for those of you who like Alex Riley, PLEASE give me one good reason (and saying things like "he's awesome!" is not a reason)... or for anybody who doesn't, but thinks they know why people do, feel free to chime in too. I just don't get what anybody thinks has actually changed besides his alignment and theme song.
