Ryback’s reputation continues to plummet, and he can only blame himself for that. This is especially due to his petty and bitter behavior in general, as fans are simply done with him in general. He also opened up about the Big Show kicking out of his finisher in the past.
On the November 18th, 2013, episode of RAW, Ryback hit his Shell Shock finisher on The Big Show. However, The Big Show kicked out after the referee’s two-count before hitting a KO punch for the win.
While speaking on his podcast, The Ryback Show, Ryback revealed that he had no issue with Vince McMahon’s booking.
“I remember Big Show, that was specifically asked by Vince, they wanted him kicking out of the Shell Shock, which if it was up to me, nobody ever would. But I also didn’t have a problem because Big Show, later that year when I switched back to babyface, put me over time and time again, whether it was for the IC Title or live events defending that. I have nothing but the utmost respect for him.”
As we exclusively reported, Ryback has no chance of returning to WWE. We’ll have to wait and see if he will ever return to the ring. It seems unlikely, as fans simply want him to retire for good.
