Former WWE Star Says Championships Are Props

Former WWE star Ryback has often been a lightning rod for hot takes since leaving WWE in 2016. Now, he is at it again as he sounded off on Twitter regarding WWE’s portrayal of their championships.

Specifically, he called the titles props to market entertainers as champions. It was enough to get people talking again as there are still those who hold wrestling championships in high regard. Here is the tweet in response to WWE on FOX:

Wrestling’s fake guys and the Championships are props to market entertainers as “Champions”’ Nobody has actually ever won or lost a prop, as scripted physical entertainment is incapable of that. This tweet explains so much though on your tv deal with them. https://t.co/KurkFyBISo

During his WWE tenure, Ryback only held one championship. He won the Intercontinental Championship at Elimination Chamber in 2015, holding it for three months before losing it to Kevin Owens at Night of Champions.
