Talking about 2007 when Ryback was living in a complex apartment with Wade Barret who he joined in future while forming the group known as Nexus, the former WWE Star said that Wade did not have positive feeling about Reeves that time but the two became great friends later:
Revealing the story behind his famous ‘Feed Me More’ chant which won the Slammy Award for being the Crowd Chant of The Year in 2012, the former WWE Intercontinental Champion said that at that time he was working as a waiter in a restaurant and the dishwashers came up with the chant seeing the eating habits of “The Big Guy”:
“And it was like, ‘hey, how are you doing?’ ‘Good. How are you?’ ‘Good.’ And, like, that was it and it wasn’t until years later, in FCW, when we kind of were getting ready in the same area and he realized I was nothing like [that]. I was just in a really low point in my life. And we became great friends."
Ryback was one of the 8 contestants who took part in the first season of NXT and made his main roster debut during the shocking debut of Nexus in June 2010.
After the break-up of the Nexus, he was repacked as Ryback and was given a quick push upon in the early days of his new gimmick when he challenged the then WWE Champion CM Punk for his championship.
Although the Big Guy failed to capture the prestigious title and after his feud with Punk got over he was downgraded to mid cards and spend his rest of his WWE career there before finally being released in August this year.
