Due to the trademark issues, he used the name ‘The Big Guy’. He competed for several promotions like Northeast Wrestling, WrestleCade and RevPro, but is yet to sign a contract with any major company.
He has been extremely vocal about the issues that led to his release from the company, blaming the lack of creative direction for the derailment of his WWE career. Moreover, he blamed CM Punk for nipping his push in the bud. Punk and Ryback had two high-profile Hell in a Cell matches in 2012 and 2013.
“Never stop pushing for what is right”, he says. He firmly believes that WWE has wronged him; although, his former colleagues have made claims about him being an unsafe worker. Despite the claims, he doesn’t hesitate from trashing WWE on Twitter.
Ryback Rants
Part of his Twitter tirade against WWE was a long rant about how petty the company is. He accused the company of ‘creatively threatening’ him into signing contracts. He paid for his own surgeries and accused WWE of being negligent towards his medical requirements.
I also want to clarify all injuries to back and shoulder happened there and I have 100% paid for. Their neglect medically pumping me full of cortisone and toradol saying I would be alright caused the bulk of it. End of day my fault, but things need to change. @wwe needs to change

The most shocking part of the tweet was the accusation of WWE being connected to websites publishing slanderous material. He says he is one hundred percent sure of the claims he is making and promised to blow the lid off the whole matter.
