The Never Ending Downfall of Ryback

- Ryback. Whenever any fan hears that name they’ll either remember a wrestler who at one point was so over people wanted to see him end CM Punk’s WWE title reign… whilst others will think of a twitter poll. Ryback went from being a WWE main eventer and one of the most over wrestlers in the company to just being a complete joke in the industry. So let's talk about how it happened...

The truth always wins and I will keep winning. You’re keeping me relevant despite being illegally suppressed for 7.5 plus years and your karma will not be kind. Controversy creates cash and you will all be fans AGAIN the moment I come back. #Hungry
All I can hear is CRYING and MOANING from a washed up little DORK. You are not relevant anymore, seethe harder LOSER
You’re like Gunther but shit and on steroids with a mix of crack cocaine
Can't wait to see you back Goldberg
L
Why don't you work indies, prove yourself and rebuild your profile if you're 'hungry'?
I mean no disrespect by that either, I just don't understand what being a 'meme' on Twitter does for your career instead of actually working and putting yourself out there. You said you are cleared to wrestle from this past summer right?
You hit the nail on the head. If Punk can return to WWE, anyone can - except Ryback.
punk could return because wwe knows punk is a bitch who will bend the knee the moment you put any pressure on him
pffff...HAHAHAHA😆🤣
Mox has a better chance of returning than Ryback ever will. Even IF Mox so happened to leave aew. He would never go back. If in that scenario, I can see him finishing out his career in Japan. Wether he starts back out in NJPW and then goes to smaller promotions. Mox would never go back to wwe
@@dantegabriel8856he will 100% come back to WWE. They all do
don't be so sure cuz there are lots that haven't@@AnacondaVice
"If CM Punk returns im gonna retire"
In the wise words of Luke Owens D.A.D. from WresleTalk
"Retire after 5 years of no matches? Really now?"
Punk is back
He already back 😂😂
Im aware he's back (and thank God, WWE could use the help)
I'm just making fun of Cryback
@@RuneRaged They literally didn’t need him lets be real, if anything CM Punk needs them.
@georgewashingmachine6240 and no one will hire zit back whats your point?
Chris Van Vliet did an interview with Ryback a year or two ago. In that interview Ryback seemed like a decent guy who is misunderstood. Without Chris leading the conversation Ryback sounds crazy. That guy is his own worst enemy.
I remember seeing comments to a Ryback post about how "Fragile Phil is just negativity, here we are all about positivity", and I was like "are you following a different Ryback than the one I see all the time?"
Ryback 'aka' ROIDBERG 💉💪☹️🖕
Either that or he's just working as a toxic asshat to get attention.
@@SLAPTALKoh no someone using roids while not competing in actual sports
Like... uncool i guess? Certainly unhealthy.
Aaaaaaand not my business.
@@gandalf_thegrey Apparently it _is_ your business to comment on it however...
If people keep talking about him, he will truly never go away.
itts too late he will be back
He said he would retire if Punk returned. Clearly noting to Survivor Series, and yet he keeps making excuses. There was a time long ago where this guy was one of my favorite wrestlers. He’s fallen so much since then.
Backpedaling by saying he had to return to AEW is an average Ryback move
I agree
Alot of former wwe stars go off the deep end in their personal lives
@@kamarichristie4346yeah i mean they mightve worked there whole life to be a pro wrestler and took drugs then they get cut from the top wrestling company in the world.
he should join TNA and show the world what real wrestling looks like
What he said about vinces mother and to vince himself was a clear sign that vince was right to fire him. Disgusting
Ryback was so real for that. COMMON Ryback W
@@georgewashingmachine6240 huh?
Yea but Vince has actually done way worse. Many times. There will be a very special circle of hell for Vince Mcman, Even peadofiles will be spitting on his head.
i’m out the loop. what did he say?
So you care about Vince and his feeling while the man has sh*t on so many wrestlers, promoters , and small ppl. Nothing is off limits.
I remember that tweet where he said that Karma struck when CM Punk got injured when he won the AEW Championship. All I said to him was that "karma swings both ways" and he blocked me because of that. Weird guy
Wait really 😭😭🤣🤣
Sounds like something that oaf would do
@opinionatortv6457 lol "oaf". That's an insult you don't hear everyday. Nice. I totally agree
Well atleast Punk came back to wrestle for his fans what has he done he just keeps bad mouthing people not doing nothing for himself "dumb asf right" excuses,excuses and you know now that what Punk says is not always a lie. I am glad Phil came back to wwe regardless of wwe and his lawsuit it proves we all human in they end 😊
You know Ryback has watched this he's never off CZcams. So say Hello Ryback 😂
Lol he's replied on this video in the comment section
Ah this is some quality Cryback content
just see you’re profile photo and you’re drinking a monster?? do you think you’re a tough guy? could you go toe to toe with the LEGEND that is Ryback? didn’t think so.
people like you make me sick, hiding behind a screen, drinking your monster. btw, enjoy having heart palpitations because that’s the way you’re headed buddy. what a way to throw your life down the drain
My man, you said it😂
WOW! that's gotta be the funniest thing I've heard all week!! Cryback!!! You're a comedic GENIUS for coming up with that one
@@thewisemanpaulhe definitely is, considering how fitting the name Cryback is
I can't ever remember anyone wanting to see Ryback beat CM Punk. All I remember is people saying he shouldn't have ever faced CM Punk for the title.
😂😂😂
ngl 11 year old me loved CM Punk, hated him after he turned heel, and begged for Ryback to take that title off him 😂😂😂
I thought at the time WWE really missed the opportunity to do something with Ryback because of the reaction he was getting. I'm sure I wasn't the only one.
Since hearing CM Punk's story about his carelessness on the Colt Cabana podcast, I really went cold on him. I actively disengage from anything he does - I only hear about him from third-hand sources.
He won’t admit it, but his departure from WWE was the worst move in his career. Had he remained, this wouldn’t be happening to him.
You do realize this happened because he talk about how much wrestlers got paid in dirt sheets and public.
@@SheanWalsh46 Neither of you are wrong tho. Ryback did made a bad move in his career by quitting but only because of his complaints about wrestlers not being paid enough. Now he's been reduced to your average social media troll that no one wants to hire. rather or not this would still be happening to him if he stayed at the company remains unknown.
He would of got fired sooner or later anyways, the guy is nuts
Even if he stays he well get buried by Vince just like anyone else unless you name is Roman and Brock
@@SheanWalsh46he complained about pay now the only pay he gets is from TikTok live battles and he begs his fans for donations
not gonna lie, i actually once was a huge ryback fan. i liked his theme song, i liked what he was doing and i especially loved playing as him in wwe 13 and 14... one of my strongest characters, my friends hated when i played as him lol. but it all went downhill as soon as i heard other wrestlers talking about how dangerous it was to work with him. i know this is kinda specific but i somehow, even tho i am not a wrestler myself, loose alot of respect and interest in a wrestler when i hear how less people actually want to work with them, because there dangerous to work with.
Oh no some dude who thinks strangers care about him playing a 10 year old video game doesn't respect me, whatever will I do lmao
@@thewisemanpaul exactly, you do nothing lol
im right there with you. In my mind if your out there hurting the person your in the ring with, you become a far less of a pro, and more of a gimmick to me. Like "they hired this ape?!?" Is where my mind goes lol
I loved that promo/shoot he did with Al Snow where he was always eating stuff and Al would get on his ass about it. That would have made a funny gimmick.
Dude I feel the same way. Wrestlers are doing stuntwork for our entertainment. Its their job to protect their partners in the ring, opponent or teammate. When I hear one of them is careless with their opponents, it also feels like they are being careless about a humans well being AND the fans who enjoy their performances. Its not cool. You 100% are right to lose respect for someone who isn't respecting others.
Skip Sheffield is truly one of the wrestlers of all time
College Station, Texas
Yeah Sheffield isnt great, relegation this year
Yep yep. What it do?
Ryback claimed that Dusty Rhodes "loved" the gimmick and that it was "over as fuck in Florida". If he says so, hahahah!
@@DreFromMaine8472 Did he say that when Chase took over his stream?
He’s like the ex that tricked you into dating them, only to find out they’re toxic and aggressive, you breakup with them and they twist it and won’t move on
I am that ex
😂 😂
Dealing with that ex at the moment
I'm that ex. Damn.
@@shitakeparty8793 real original
Lately he's more like....CRYback than Ryback. And apparently CM Punk really lives super rent free in his head.
Dude is SUPERRRRR jealous of Punk
No hes NOT
When I got back into wrestling in 2015 Ryback was instantly one of my favorites. He was a beast but dude fell off so hard like I’m surprised he’s relevant.
Irrelevant is actually much more like it.
I wouldn't say he's Irrelevant... He's got a pretty good social media following. I still think he's a draw. The truth is he got silenced.
@@somethingeasy3005he has relevancy because of people laughing at how pathetic he is lmao he is not a draw
Same bro. I instantly became a fan of his when debuted in WWE and then his feuds with Cena and Punk. Nowadays, he just wines and complains like a kid about things that happened 10 years ago, and constantly targets Punk to stay relevant. I'm ashamed that I was once a fan of this dude
I got back into Wrestling right around then too, maybe the same year. I felt the same way. I really liked him.... now though? Oof!
Ryback was well known for trying to hurt who he wrestled. I assume he did it to try and move up the card. I mean far to many wrestlers have said he was very unsafe to work with.
Yeah. He did it on purpose, not by accident, he wanted it to happen to them. Hes a joke, a fool, and a botcher.
@@lestatlunar
So Ryback was like the "millennium" version of Ahmed Johnson.
What I mean, Ahmed Johnson got into the scene in the Attitude Era and Ryback on PG Era.
Your comment doesn't make any sense and is so backwards. Why would a wrestler intentionally injure another wrestler to move up the card? By the way, who are these wrestlers that have said he was unsafe to work? Accidents happen in the ring and I gurantee yo your favorites have done the exact same thing. When it comes to the wrestling fans, they're biased and will utter nonsense to further their opinion.
Now he eats food in his car by turning on his phone's camera 😂
Ryback’s rise & fall is VERY comparable to WCW’s Renegade, a guy brought in because they couldn’t get THE REAL guy they wanted, Renegade had unrealistic pushes UNTIL Eric got THE REAL Ultimate Warrior, then the Renegade was literally degraded on Tv by Jimmy Hart & left to do stupid spots that Warrior didn’t want to, like appearing in smoke, Ryback had a undeserved push…and 2 shots ended his career PERMANENTLY, and DARED to injure The Best in the World & who did WWE “conveniently” bring back RIGHT AFTER WWE let Ryback go? THE REAL Bill Goldberg, why pay for a sh** stirring unsafe, imitator when you’re bringing the real guy back? and Ryback knows that too because I actually tweeted that to him that it’s so convenient that they let him go and then Goldberg came back. He blocked me on Twitter because I think he even realizes that he was just a clone until they can get the real thing, he’s a Bollywood copyright infringing ripoff of a Hollywood Blockbuster & his little ego can’t handle the obvious truth.
@@sessamyseasoning8315 Pretty close, they both were signed & got pushed not for their ability (or lack there of) but because they vaguely looked like the guy Eric (WCW) or Vince (WWE) couldn’t have, and once they could get the real thing, they were tossed aside like yesterday’s trash, cuz even at Warrior & Bill’s worst, they still drew money, which Renegade & Ryback couldn’t in comparison, yes Ryback BRIEFLY was a draw, but if he was a draw, Goldberg was a gold mine.
Goofy post.
Nice comparison 🔥🔥
I like that. Why hire an unsafe imitator, when you can hire, the ORIGINAL big bald dude who's unsafe to work with? You right man.
@@danielhogan6255 I figured someone would point that out, but Goldberg is more unsafe to himself than his opponent,he kicked Bret’s head in because WCW used and 18x18 ring (that’s 16x16 inside the ropes with 2 feet outside) Goldberg shouldn’t have been in the center of that monstrosity doing a Super Kick to a guy like Bret who had just joined & started wrestling again after Owen died, and was used to WWF/E’s 22x22 ring (that’s 20 feet inside of the ropes) so he wasn’t yet used to the fact that the WCW ring was build like the TNA 6 sided, meant to spring off the ropes, not run off them, in part cuz of the lack of space, and the other part being the fact the WCW ropes were steel cables wrapped in rubber tubing, not WWEs bull ropes, and I make that statement because different rings are built for different things. The ONLY other injury Bill caused was that horrid Tombstone botch which why have 2 50+ year olds in the heat of Saudi, do a long match well past their prime, ALL OF THE OTHER INJURIES Goldberg did to himself, nearly needing his arm amputated from breaking a car window with his forearm, countless concussions from smacking his own head against either a metal locker door, or wooded locker room door. He’s not the smartest but he’s safer than Rybotcha, and actually can draw a crowd and sell merch, so there’s the main difference in why they got rid of Baldy McRoidedup for Bill Goldberg.
Go watch Hogan’s leg drop in a WCW ring compared to a WWE ring in both 80s & 2000s, Hogan leans off the WCW Cable ropes, and pushes off with his arm, in WWE he runs and has momentum, that’s a HUGE reason Goldberg has a bad name cuz of the Bret kick, those ropes and small ring YOU CAN NOT RUN FULL SPEED LIKE BRET DID.
Cryback is his own worst enemy. He got given far more chances than most and blew it time and time again. Now he's just a laughably bad Twitter troll, sharing posts that almost nobody cares about, and the ones that do just laugh at him. A fitting end for such a dumpster fire of a person.
What chance was he given, wwe treated him like trash 💀
Dumpster fire of a comment lmao
he wasn’t charismatic at all and his ringwork was trash. He just had a massive physique, that’s it. He could have parleyed that into a long lasting career but he appears to be pretty dumb and arrogant on top of all that.
Umm its "Ryback"
Ryback is where AEW get their inspiration on booking their big guys.
The last time I saw him wrestle was at a Smack Down taping in Ronoake VA. Tyrus was there and if I’m not mistaken Alberto Del Rio was champion. What a shitty time to be a wrestling fan. He was in his rip off Goldberg gimmick . The entire arena was yelling Fatback at the top of their lungs. He was really pissy over it and I don’t think his match made air. One really cool thing that happened was a chance meeting with The Big Show. The manager of The Civic Center is my uncle and I could come and go in places a lot of people aren’t allowed. It wasn’t like I could bust in backstage at concerts or events but I could get around easier. I had my then 5 year old nephew with me and we went out the back and were headed to my car. Thats when my nephew stopped dead in his tracks. I looked up and it was The Big Show. He started talking to us, asked if we wanted to see his new bus and even let us go in it. He showed us the Superman symbols embroidered on head rests and things. I’ve been on tour buses but this was a mansion on wheels. Big Show told us that he’d bought it from Shaq. It cost close to a million dollars but he said it’d already paid for itself because he’d retired and cut his career short without it. Trips in tiny rentals were wrecking his body more than the wrestling. Getting off we saw Ryback getting into the back seat of a tiny rental and im not sure but I think Koffi Kingston was driving. That asshole looked like Donkey Kong in Mario Cart stuffed in that car 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
KONG. ME. MORE.
That’s hilarious
@@musicandmagic909 I can still picture it plain as day. I should ask AI to make a picture of Ryback in Mario Cart.
Nobody’s fault but his own that he’s in the situation he’s in.
Hes in a better situation than you though
@@josiahblake1286not sure I would like to be in your situation Ryback.
He seems to be living comfortably.
See that's where you're misunderstood at... Now while his combative " not back down" might not have did him any favors... The guy seriously got screwed by a monopoly... The HUGE company that is WWE.
@@vikvegas8593living comfortably but is a completely delusional egomaniac who is the laughing stock of an entire industry lmao
Ryback in another universe hopefully was as successful and amazingly powerful of a character as Batista was. Drawing in Payperviews and whatever else
Brad Maddox that’s a throwback 😂
I don't think even someone like Billy Corgan would want Ryback in NWA.
Something that ALL wrestling fans have in common is that we all hate Ryback
He's delusional mind of grandeur is impressive
Speak for yourself and to hate someone you don't know personally or have ever met to have a conversation with is quite odd, don't you think? Especially since most of what he's said his by opinion is towards other people he's had experience with. I mean, put aside whatever he says, he's exposed WWE, better yet, he's exposed Vince McMahon for the guy that he is behind the scenes perhaps more than any other wrestler. You guys will dwell on the negatives but not reality. If anything, I think you're the delusional one who cannot grasp reality and will virtue signal towards anything about Ryback. This can be said about most people are against him.
Ryback blocked me for reminding him that he once at 12 steaks on a single flight 😂. Apparently his skin is thinner than a two dollar steak 😂.
Ryback is now eating chips and battling kids on TikTok
Ryback reminds me of Homer falling through floor after floor after floor while being Initiated into the Stonecutters 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
I used to like Ryback when I was in high school he was awesome and my brother and I wanted him to see him as WWE champion. But now? He went from being the most over wrestler to the biggest clowns on the internet.
“Such wasted potential…”
-Sub-Zero
Y’all see that tik tok of him kissing Shrek? Also this dude can’t stop bringing up CM Punk on social media 😂
So this is the second wrestling video that came out recently that prominent features Ryback from channels I follow. I'm sure he had a ton of fans at one point, just not sure that many people wanted him to beat Punk. I think this guy is his own worse enemy and it's been that way for many years.
Ain't it strange how you'll go years without hearing about someone, then you'll see a video one day n next thing you know you're seeing shit about him everywhere lol
I believed in him for a long time, and I still do a bit, but he has to come to terms with himself and find himself in a better headspace.
Respect your employer
They may not always be right or fair, but they pay your bills. And sometimes, you are relevant in the industry only because of them.
Applies not just to wrestling.
No. The employee do their jobs and the employer pay them based on contractual obligation. The employee do not owe their employer anything and vice versa. If you want to kiss up your way by praising your employer, fine. But do not ever shove that idea to other people's throat.
"I'm dumb as fuck. I'm sorry."
The guy legally changed his name to ryback. I rest my fucking case lol
legend has it that ryback’s back is made of wheat… because of rye on his back. then he stole robin’s logo from dc comics.
TBF he did get turned into a pretty iconic gif that even non wrestling fans use
Could you make a video on the downfall of Matt Riddle in WWE?
I love all the neanderthals saying "bro riddle can actually fight he was in UFC, he'd mess anyone up in WWE" when people bring up him being a cancer. Eventually these people will reach a mental maturity of at least 10 and maybe learn that being able to fight doesn't entitle you to being a piece of garbage
@@thewisemanpaulUFC fans are mad stupid
You forgot his disastrous Reddit AMA where he forgot how to reply to comments, and instead just posted out of context non sequiturs. “Sponge Daddy” will forever be synonymous with Ryback
I never understood why he got the golden push. He had no ring skills, no mike skills and no heart!
Everyone has their ups and downs, and not all people would make it to the top. Some examples are Ziggler and Miz, they're jobbers and are supposed to lose every single match they fight but they're cool with that - which makes the fans love them. Seeing the fans turn your back agaisnt you means that ur done, forever
Miz has been to the top
Miz & Ziggler has been wrestling for so long and had various belts that it doesn't feel like they're jobbers to me.
Ziggler is no jobber.
@@mikes.4136so you haven’t been watching for the past few years😂😂😂😂Dolph got released cause he was kept as a jobber not doing anything with himself
@@mikes.4136he kind of was in his wwe twilight years.
Everyone who is blocked by Ryback has a why they're blocked by Ryback mine is because I told no him it's not cool to wish death upon people
That tells us all we need to know about this jerk.
"from being one of wrestling's top guys
to being a joke who nobody wants"
he and Billy-boy really do have a lot in common
Ryback is a jerk. He deserves all the bad karma coming at him.
I once was able to ask him a question and he basically called me an idiot. I asked him if he ever considered wrestling in TNA. He said you must be “dumb af” if you didn’t know I was sidelined with injuries.
Probably mad because TNA doesn’t want him either.
People with terrible attitudes inevitably have it catch up with him. Now Skip is blacklisted, and I couldn't be happier. Let him keep doing mukbangs on youtube in his car and never wrestle again.
Nah
Lol
Would love to see a full cycle he ran back in the WWE days. Im guessing GRAMS of gear
intravenous drip of sarms, anabol and horse roids.
Ouch poor Billy he's going to be smashing some pumpkins when he hears the Zing about 12 people watching his show
You missed his Australian tour that only drew 50 people per show, which brings the combined total of attendance to 200.
Me Ryback. Me meathead. Feed me more. Punk hurt Ryback feelings. Me hurt punk. Punk fired. Me IC Champ. Ryback fired. If Punk returns, Ryback retire. Punk no showed AEW, Ryback no retire. FEEED ME MORE. RYBACK RULEZ
Nickleback has more fans than Ryback 😂😂😂😂
People still think hating on Nickelback is cool?
Cool video as always Tom 💯
Excellent video
At least he was right about Vince being a pos 😂
Ryback, the living embodiment of Going Out Sad.
Real
Why did he keep including the option to retire?
Ultimate warrior level career management and ring skills with half the charisma
My dad used to be a Ryback fan when i first got into wrestling. I dont think he knows about his adventures on twitter though
Anyone who knows nothing of Twitter is far better for it
More like Cryback
Dudes on tiktok and nearly every video he does is shitting on wwe and hyping himself up as a god
Isn't it ironic how after all this time, he was right about Vince?
No
Everyone was right about Vince being a scumbag. Go back to his days in the 80s trying to buy Race outta the NWA.
Ryback is so juiced on roids it's crazy, look how different his appearance was from the start to his Nexus debut, his head is like a basketball 😮
Rybacks downfall sure is Never Ending! Another great video Greg! Is Tom actually going to contribute anything next time?
I was 12 when introduced to Ryback on wwe. I was such a big fan and wanted him to be an unstoppable wwe champion. Shame it didn’t work out but Vince should’ve given him a chance with him being so over
Vince stopped basing the company on who was over when WCW was on the way out. He pushed who he wanted after that.
@@arostwocents exactly and it worked! As a kid Vince could tell me who was the good and bad guy and I believed it and would go with it. But I’m genuinely surprised they never did the cena heel turn. I understand that they thought kids wouldn’t buy merchandise anymore but I can tell you that 10 year old me would have backed cena no matter what weather he was heel or baby face. Could have been huge!
He got greedy . Should have took less money and earned a better contract instead of holding out
This was a much needed video
That poll was crazy 😂😂
WWE had really had noone else for CM Punk and John Cena, so they gave them Ryback to work with? Shouldn't you be taking care of top guys like Punk and Cena? Shows you how bad the scene was at the time.
The comment regarding mic levels and music volume is actually true. Giving people a catchy song is also a major aspect and you know when someone has an awful entrance theme, they are going to get buried. What WWE did to EC3 is awful
He carried TNA for a while, I thought he would have had a great career in WWE...
EC3 had a great entrance theme though
EC3 was horrible
Ryback was never over enough to be champ, despite what the audio sweeting said.
love the dig at Billy corgans NWA XD, Maybe we can get a Ryback doing coke with father James Mitchell for a pre match segment
Ryback is probably the only person other then hogan and his lies that everyone legitimately hates in the wrestling community 😂
Ryback is one of those wrestlers that got a good push, now thinks he's one of the best in the world. Like tbh Ryback was not really goood.
Before I stopped watching wrestling in 2013 I remember watching him and think how he really did wrestle and act like an overgrown baby who can just barely walk 😂
the good old days of pro wrestling is gone yes you're right 😢
@@user-px4do3qc4x nah I disagree. I started watching recently because the product is so good. I also watched a bit in 2016 but it was really bad then. I’d say WWE has been as good as the ruthless aggression era now a days.
Honestly I enjoyed his bully character
He wont shut up...just keeps blabbering on an on about how he got screwed around
All he does is complain on his social media. He reminds me of that ex-girlfriend who says they're over their ex but always looks for an opportunity to talk shit about them. Haha.
Complain about wat
Who said Ryback was ever over?
His conspiracies about social media blocking his content are hilarious! I've never watched his Twitch livestreams but I started following out of morbid curiosity. Today he had 6 people watching live at one point. That's the highest number I've ever seen on his channel. By comparison some dude playing solitaire in total silence had like 200+ followers watching live.... so yeah. Dude's lost it. Probably never had it.
Wowwww 😮😦😮😦 didn't realize it was that bad
Sad moment
Your incompetence to how social media higher ups deal with information they don’t like is what’s hilarious
I wanted The Ryback to beat Punk. I really liked the "anti" bully gimmick too. Admittedly a lot of my fandom at the time came from watching Bryan Danielson do an interview talking about how he's "the" Ryback and seemed like friends. So Danielson approved was good enough for me
Ryback and Austin Aries should team up together 😅
His WWE ring worn singlets have been sitting on ebay unsold for a few hundred bucks for while.
For comparison, when Bayley’s ring gear went on there bids were left and right like crazy and it sold for about 50 grand
Ryback was never as over as you make it sound
He just cry at everything at this point.
Well, he's vindicated in regards to Vince at least.
How on earth did this guy get so over in 2012?
WWE was so bland
He was built as unstoppble monster like goldberg and it worked
Great men once said "it's better to be a fool and no one knows it then to open your mouth and erase all doubts"
Ryback killed the way people perceive him. When he would speak positively and the like he was really likeable but it transitioned into him posting attacks at the WWE and Vince on social media all the time, especially harping on his lawsuit and being repressed in social media. And eventually that just kills any likability or desire to follow the dude. When you spend like six years nonstop posting barbs at the WWE and whining about social media suppression and then have random lash outs at people like mark henry or Vince McMahon. And he just seems bitter whenever he addresses the WWE or his time there. And he tries to keep his name out with the stupid retirement polls that he keeps doing over and over with silly talks about then after the polls end. Mix that with him not wrestling for so long it’s just time to walk away
By posting that unhinged bitter hate about WWE executives that went way beyond what even CM Punk used to say, he pretty much killed his own career.
I remember his last WWE match, and I had hopes that he could finally become a pretty good hoss one day. Now not even AEW would hire him, because nobody wants to see him wrestle anymore.
ALL THIS
He still had retire as an option though.😂
Things like that are what makes me wonder if he's actually trolling
Not anymore
This dude clings to whatever relevancy he has left
I was in 7th grade when Ryback debuted. He legitimately got me thru 7th grade despite me getting suspended at the end of the year. To see his downfall is sad I used to probably be one of the very few handful of people that legitimately actually gave a fuck about the dude to some extent or another and I just stopped. I stopped cause I saw bits of me possibly turning into what an incompetent, egotistical maniac to say the least
6:50 Ryback challenges the authorities. This was the time when WWE quickly start losing ratings. Economically, a time when social media on the rise.
In the ruthless aggression era, Ryback would have thrived if he had been in the right place at the right time. The era did not have space for gentle wrestlers and there were hardly any instances of injuries.
i call bs, guy is a little unhinged and would backstage politic himself out of any spot in any era imo
@@iRaps1 what is it that makes him unhinged cause were all a little f’n crazy
I think ryback is an example of steriods affecting brain and hormonal changes.
Ryback not learning his lesson and reposting the same poll, only to get told to retire each time, is way funnier to me than it should be.
I was a fan of Ryback in WWE. But now he is just a guy that keep grudges from other people ( CM Punk ) from over 10 years ago, wishing death upon people ( Vince McMahon ), eating ruffles and a poll wanting him to retire
Ryback admitted that was just stupid, He seems like a good guy just really easy to push into situations.
Overall He's doing great
All I’m saying is Trick Williams VS Ryback for the NXT championship is the. greatest way to revive this man’s career…
Yeah well all I'm saying is you are a dork
Now he's just a guy who eat chips
That is an unhinged tweet, and that is saying a lot, considering how horrendous twitter can be.
"If fragile Phil returns to WWE, I'll retire!"
Cm Punk returns
"Guys, I meant Aew, the company I have no relationship with and never will"
If Tony actually signs him it'll be confirmation beyond a doubt aew is finished
I gave up on Ryback long before the Punk feud. I kept seeing the 2 on 1 or 3 on 1 matches against jobbers and wondering when he was going to face an actual WWE superstar. One match I remember was him vs Curt Hawkins and he could barely lift Hawkins. That showed me he wasn't ready but he had already gotten over with the majority of fans.
Being able to beat 3 people at the same time is impressive
Hugely doubt he could “barely lift” anyone, mate
Go rewatch
@@FazeRustyNutsIt’s a lot less impressive when the guys you’re beating are jobbers that look like the skinny pencil necked kid that got bullied in high school.
The problem with Ryback was that he thought he was bigger than the Rock and John Cena. His attitude sucked.
the background music though 🤣
