The former WWE star added, “Shadow ban technology has NO PLACE being used to begin with and is rooted in evil and corruption. @elonmusk you have failed to deliver on what you said you would do and I hope you take this very seriously. @twitter @instagram @meta @youtube @tiktok_us @snapchat @wwe @Endeavor good luck.”

The companies he has tagged are over billion-dollar valuation organizations. Below are the valuations of the companies he has sent legal letters:- 

  1. Meta – $647.58 Billion 
  2. Instagram – $39.7 Billion
  3. Snapchat – $15.67 Billion
  4. Twitter – $20 Billion
  5. TikTok – $66 Billion 
  6. YouTube  – $160 Billion

Since Musk has taken over Twitter, we saw Ryback tagging him over several issues he faced on Twitter. Moreover, many times we have seen on Twitter bashing WWE, even years after he left the company.

He successfully won the battle against WWE a few weeks back. Last year in December, WWE had “given up and given their resignation” for the rights to the name Ryback. Moreover, he is waiting for the patent office to confirm the same.

A throwback to Ryback’s WWE career

Ryan Allen Reeves joined WWE in 2004 in the Tough Enough competition. He did not win the competition but impressed the WWE officials to gain a developmental contract. Until 2010, he wrestled in DSW, OVW, and FCW, with a reign as OVW Heavyweight Championship.

In 2010, he joined the NXT group Nexus and dominated on the main roster until the seven-on-seven elimination tag team match at the 2010 SummerSlam. After a hiatus due to injury, he returned as Ryback in 2012 and wrestled in that character till his departure.

During his tenure as Ryback from 2012 to 2016, he had notable feuds with CM Punk and John Cena. He also won the Intercontinental Title once.
