Ex-WWE Star, Who Tried to Expose WWE, Pitches an Offer to Elon Musk: “I Will Have No Issues Helping Twitter…”

Tesla owner Elon Musk acquired Twitter after a much-publicized saga for $44 billion. He has been in talks about purchasing the micro-blogging site since April this year and finalized the takeover a few days ago. Musk’s Twitter deal also became a hot topic of conversation in the wrestling world as WWE legend Mick Foley either deleted or deactivated his Twitter account shortly after the news broke.

But now, another former WWE superstar is seeking Elon Musk’s help in his Twitter-related issues with WWE.

Few former wrestlers hold grudges with their employers over their treatment, booking, or other issues. One of the most protracted battles of such, in recent times, has been between WWE and former superstar Ryback.

In 2016, Ryback left the company and has since openly talked about his relationship with WWE. He also claimed that WWE has been messing with his Twitter account alongside Twitter, restricting his activities on the platform. After the news of Musk buying Twitter and making changes, Ryback pleaded his case to the richest man in the world.

Ryback has an interesting offer to help Elon Musk’s Twitter

Ryback walked out of WWE in 2016 and said it was due to money issues and how the company booked him. Since then, he severed his ties with WWE after taking shots at them on social media. His real-life feud with the wrestling promotion has been going on for some time. A few days ago, he said after his departure from WWE, that the promotion wanted his social media but he denied it. He then accused the WWE of exploiting him and his social media handles and restricting his account.

Moreover, the former Intercontinental Champion claimed that he lost 300k followers and 0.5% impressions owing to the restrictions. Ryback said he hoped Elon Musk gets all the information regarding Twitter restricting his account.

WWE files trademarks against the names of wrestlers and other labels they use in the company. This also means a wrestler cannot use the likeliness elsewhere and could be a reason behind Ryback’s Twitter restrictions. The Big Guy has now again pleaded with the new owner of Twitter to help him out. And this time he has come up with an offer of his own.

Ryback retweeted a photo of Musk and proposed an interesting offer. He wrote, “You fix my account and I will have no issues helping Twitter become the platform it could be.” 

A couple of days ago, Elon Musk announced a few changes to Twitter’s verification system. Musk tweeted that users would get the coveted blue checkmark on their profile along with other services for $8 per month in the US. He further said that the price will be “adjusted by country proportionate to purchasing power parity.”

Ryback has constantly accused WWE of creating issues for him. Now, his latest plea to Elon Musk suggests that this battle won’t be over anytime soon. It will be interesting to see if Elon Musk takes up his offer after regular mentions by the former WWE star.
