WWE rumors 2016: Ryback heading to TNA because of dispute with WWE?

Following a sudden absence during a WWE Battle Royale match, professional wrestler Ryan Allen Reeves aka Ryback revealed via Tumblr that there was a dispute between him and WWE regarding equal pay and creative decisions. This dispute may have grown as a new post from Ryback via Twitter indicates he may be moving to TNA.

The wrestler tweeted that fans should chant his popular phrase of "Feed Me More" during the "Extreme Rules" kickoff show not only to give support for the wrestler, who has seen almost no screen time lately on WWE, but also to give indication that the fans would like to see him active on the Impact Zone, the famous wrestling location used by TNA.

According to a report from Attack of the Fanboy, fans are well aware that Ryback and the management of WWE are not on good terms and this may cause Ryback to move to TNA sooner than later, possibly causing the parties to work around his current contract with WWE, such as Ryback using a new stage name when he wrestles for TNA.

However, the report also points out that the WWE does not take it lightly when its talents promote matches in other wrestling programs like TNA and it is possible that Ryback and WWE will undergo a short legal battle before everything is said and done. 

The report also points out that TNA's World Heavyweight Champion, Ethan Carter III, replied to Ryback's tweet. This indicates that there may be solid ground for the rumors that Ryback is indeed moving to TNA soon and there may already be a set-up for Ryback to chase after the champion's belt. 

Ryback's decision to move also comes right after Vince McMahon fired eight superstars from WWE just a few days following the Battle Royale incident, reports Inquisitr, further suggesting that there may be several behind-the-scenes legal disputes between WWE and the wrestlers, including Ryback.
