Ryback had a decade-long career in the Stamford-based promotion before leaving in 2016, amidst growing frustration with the company. The main reasons behind his departure were issues with contract negotiations, creative dissatisfaction, and feeling underpaid.
Years after his release, fans still expect him to show up in WWE someday, given how much he interacts with wrestling and WWE content on social media. Speaking of which, a fan recently asked why he comments on WWE videos, to which he replied, saying that it’s not only WWE, but he interacts with all other wrestling content on the internet.
>“Why do I comment on all of the WWE videos? Well, I don’t just comment on their videos. I comment on AEW, TNA, ESPN, UFC, Marvel, Disney, all over social media, all different trending topics. Feed me more! Hungry with that. My branding on that, that is something we employed with my feed me more nutrition many, many years ago, and have simply just brought to my personal pages to help me reconnect with my good fan base all around the world with that.”While addressing the fan question, Ryback also made a heartbreaking statement that he can’t return to the Triple H-led company because he’s not cleared to wrestle.
>“So a lot of people think you’re trying to go back to WWE. I can’t go back to WWE. I’m not cleared to wrestle for my shoulder. We wish them peace. We made peace quite a while ago with all of that. My goal is to reconnect with the good human beings out there. I’m not worried about the trolls or the people hating for every negative person or comment, I’m getting 10,15, 20, 30, quality human beings that I’m getting to reconnect with, not only for my pages and my social media, but for my business, Family, or nutrition. And that’s the last bite, feed me more.”https://tjrwrestling.net/news/intercontinental-champion-return-wwe/
