Bellator MMA President Scott Coker confirmed that he’s spoken with Ryback, but they’re “not close” to striking a deal just yet.
The Big Guy has been training jiu-jitsu and working on his striking this year. After officially departing WWE last month, the Big Guy has been taking independent bookings, working on his own entrepreneurial ventures (nutrition, motivational) and could be the next former WWE Superstar to cross over to the world of MMA.
