7 Wrestlers WWE Released Who Deserve Another Run

7. Ryback

Ryback was Vince's "Big Guy". Despite questions raised about his in-ring ability (just ask CM Punk), he was often given killer opportunities in the WWE with title runs and main-event feuds. Hell, they even gave him Paul Heyman as a manger at one point.

But Ryback left the company under a cloud. After a contract dispute where he complained about talent not being paid fairly, his time there came to a sudden and crashing end. He's been wrestling on the indie circuit ever since, but he's still managing to antagonise his former employers. With recent comments about women in the WWE not being sexy enough, Ryback is as controversial, and as pig-headed, as ever.

With him actively trolling the WWE, it might seem unlikely that he'd be offered another chance. But any smark knows that real heat is good heat in pro wrestling, and a comeback as a heel - using his bitterness as a character trait - could help feed Ryback one more run.
