10 Wrestlers Who Claimed To Be Social Media Hacking Victims

6. Ryback's Hacker Has Some Fun

Sometimes, if it's harmless tweets, wrestling fans can find some humour in a top star being a victim of hacking. Of course, it's never nice to imagine that someone's personal details can be spilled all over the internet, but some hackers aren't necessarily interested in the people behind the characters, but instead more so attracted to the thought of causing some laughs. In November, 2014, Ryback was supposedly hacked - a barrel load of tweets were sent out, aimed at the internet wrestling community, Dolph Ziggler's concussion problems, and being released from WWE, amongst other things. Obviously, the star hasn't been released, but it did cause quite the stir when posted. One of the funniest messages came at the expense of fellow wrestler Big E, stating that the man's name actually referred to his bra size. That one got a lot of quick re-tweets, before quickly being taken down, along with the plethora of other posts which had dogged 'The Big Guy' in just a matter of hours. Many fans felt this wasn't a case of hacking, but instead Ryback himself having some fun. Needless to say, if it had been, he'd have landed himself in some hot water with WWE officials!
