Ryback is officially a free agent. The WWE star took to Instagram to reveal that his contract is up with the company and that he’s no longer in business with them. He wished the company and its talent roster “the best their future endeavors” in the video, which you can see below.
Ryback hasn’t been actively involved with WWE since he asked to be sent home in May in the midst of stalled contract negotiations. WWE has yet to comment on Ryback’s status and, it is worth noting, is still listed on the WWE roster page.
