In this week's exclusive interview on WrestleRant Radio, Graham "GSM" Matthews talks to former WWE Superstar "The Big Guy" Ryback about all the hats he's wearing these days and so much more! They're discussing what he's been up to since leaving WWE three years ago, building his brand, creating his own supplement line and how it got started, working for himself, the success and rebranding of his podcast, if he's had any favorite guests, his use of social media, if he regrets using Twitter the way he did while he was in WWE, injuries he was suffering from toward the end of his time in WWE, how leaving wasn't an easy decision for him, writing a self-help book, the best pieces of feedback he's received and if he has another book in the works.
And that's not all! GSM and Ryback also chat about why his renewed push in 2014 fell through and his thoughts on it, when he's aiming to return to the ring, working with Northeast Wrestling, early rumors of him becoming a top babyface in WWE long before he actually did and if there was ever any truth behind them, why his layoff lasted longer than expected in 2010-2011, why he wants to eventually have a conversation with Vince McMahon, wrestlers wanting to leave WWE and the current wrestling landscape, goals he has for himself and why he still wants to face Brock Lesnar, who his dream opponent would be, and a ton of other topics!
