Ryback Dishes on WWE Walkout, Being Promised Top Heel Position, Vince McMahon Calling AJ Styles a ‘Twerp’

Former WWE Superstar Ryback has released the first episode of his new podcast Conversations With The Big Guy, and dished on why he made the decision to leave the company. Ryback stated that he was offered a three year $1.5 million contract to resign with WWE, but ultimately decided to walk away:

“Not about a money issue, just so everybody knows, I walked away from the WWE, the contract offer that I walked away from was a three-year $1.5 million contract,” Ryback said.

Ryback also went into detail about being promised a top heel position in the WWE, and that he would have a run with the world title if he listened to Vince McMahon and read his promos as they were scripted.  He also revealed that he was originally scheduled to collide with AJ Styles at Wrestlemania 32, as Vince told him that he was going to “squash that little twerp.”
