Ryback is one of the most controversial figures in professional wrestling. Both his offline and online behavior has caused multiple fans and wrestlers alike to take issue with him. However, the superstar doesn’t tolerate much when it comes to the world of social media, as evidenced by his X account.
On a recent episode of The Ryback Show, the former WWE superstar talked about his Twitter antics. The topic of him blocking people online came up, and The Big Guy wanted to find out how many accounts he had blocked over the years. He pulled up the official stats on his phone and the results were mind-boggling.
The former Intercontinental Champion revealed that he hadn’t checked these stats before, and was about to do it for the first time on stream. He had amassed over 1.35 million followers on his X account. Although a majority of his blocked accounts were not his followers in the first place, he did claim to have blocked many of his followers as well.
My account’s f*cked either way. 22,426 people blocked and I got 7,778 muted. So between blocks and mutes we are just around 30k.

His account statistics showed that the 42-year-old had blocked 22,426 accounts on X. Furthermore, he had also muted 7,778 separate accounts. This brought his total number of accounts blocked and muted to over 30,000.
Ryback invites Mark Henry to meet him and resolve their differences after their social media controversy
During their time in WWE, the real-life Ryback Reeves and Mark Henry worked together on various occasions. They have put on successful matches on Raw & SmackDown and even at WrestleMania. However, the relationship between the two soured quickly. The dispute began with the controversial figure calling WWE title belts as props. The AEW star did not take too kindly to this.
Henry hurled several insults at Reeves and claimed that he was unsafe in the ring. This claim has been shared by several other superstars, including CM Punk. This resulted in the Big Guy claiming that the World’s Strongest Man couldn’t do anything to him, as he was scared of him. However, it seems like he is ready to make peace now.
Reeves wanted to meet up with the former World Heavyweight Champion in Vegas. He said that he wanted to settle the dispute personally before Mark Henry went on to the Busted Open Radio and made public statements. Despite Ryback also wanting to appear on the podcast to talk things out, he seemingly wasn’t allowed to.
