In a recent podcast episode of The Ryback Show, former WWE Superstar Ryback expressed his support for All Elite Wrestling (AEW), urging wrestling fans to back the promotion. Ryback, a former Intercontinental Champion, praised AEW for its reputation of treating wrestlers well, citing a lighter schedule compared to WWE as a significant advantage.
Ryback’s endorsement of AEW comes as no surprise, given the promotion’s meteoric rise to prominence in the professional wrestling industry over the last five years. AEW has not only attracted top talent from around the world, including legendary names like Bryan Danielson, Adam Copeland, and Kazuchika Okada, but has also earned a reputation for prioritizing the well-being of its wrestlers.
The former WWE star claimed that many people want AEW to fail, but he intends to show his support for the promotion by posting more videos in its favor. Ryback believes that having a second major promotion in the industry benefits other wrestlers, providing them with more opportunities and options.
In other news, Ryback sparked speculation about the future of the Hardy brothers, Matt and Jeff, who are rumored to be leaving AEW upon the expiration of their contracts.
Ryback suggested that Jeff Hardy, who is still with AEW, could reunite with his brother Matt for a final run in WWE after his contract expires. However, Matt Hardy has already parted ways with AEW and is currently a free agent, having recently signed with TNA Wrestling.
The fate of the Hardy brothers remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: AEW continues to be a major player in the professional wrestling industry, and its reputation for treating wrestlers well has earned it the admiration of many, including Ryback. As the wrestling terrain continues to evolve, fans will be eagerly watching to see what the future holds for AEW and its talented roster of wrestlers.
