Joey Ryan Reacts to Lucha Underground Release

We reported on Monday that Joey Ryan, El Hijo del Fantasma (King Cuerno), Ivelisse, and Kobra Moon had received their releases from Lucha Underground after attempting to sue the company because the future of the promotion was in question.

Joey Ryan took to social media today and released the below statement on the matter.

“I am now a free agent. Free from any contracts. Free from any bosses. Free from any restrictions. The last few years of my career haven’t been without highlights (being featured in many major media outlets, becoming a top seller on Pro Wrestling Tees, shocking the world at All In, Main Eventing the Cow Palace, a role on GLOW, the growth of Bar Wrestling) but now it honestly feels like I have a new lease on my direction and where I’m going in pro wrestling. Most of my accomplishments have been fan driven due to the overwhelming support I have received so I just wanted to take a moment to thank all the fans who have accompanied me on this journey so far and hope you will continue on the adventure.”
