With all that stuff he has upcoming that's riding on that phrase, he has to be pretty confident they aren't going to pursue anything in terms of the trademark

Christian was using it on TNA TV. It's possible Ryback used the phrase before he was with WWE and can prove it. It'd be really funny if he didn't. The fact he only filed for the trademark last year makes me wonder.

Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

Well he's got a clothing line, a business, a website, and supplements coming out all with Feed Me More and the Ryback R logo so maybe things are going to get amazing in the next couple of days. He also apparently owns the nickname the Big Guy and filed for that before WWE did.

Actually I think the whole reason he was taken off TV was exactly this reason once WWE found out.

technically he was taken off TV after he came out on a PPV with a belt that read "THE PRESHOW STOPPER"

SCI was fun and if you get the chance to see Matt Riddle I implore you to do it because not only is he the coolest dude in the world he also abandons his merch table to go watch matches and it's adorable to watch

The worst goddamn part was night one when a full 15-20% of the audience left after his drat match, which happened after intermission but before Riddle's or Hero's. And night two when it was basically a goddamn family reunion all through the stands so the outcome was never in doubt. Other than that poo poo it was a great weekend.

Yeah, seeing all the people in Gunner Miller t-shirts leave after his match on night 1 bummed me out. I could only make night 1 but I heard he looked better on night 2. His match night 1 wasn't good at all.

There was also a gross middle aged dude in the crowd who kept yelling at kids and women who were cheering for Gunner. Southern indies I guess.

Matt Riddle is a treasure though.

I hate that I had to miss night 2, but Corey Hollis vs Matt Riddle on night one was tremendous. Riddle just "gets it," and Hollis doing HHH's entrance mannerisms, being billed from Full Sail University, and using the Pedigree was great.

On night 2 him and Skylar faced Tank & Iceberg. The ring announcer asked him why they'd risk their lives in the match and he did the IF I WIN I GET FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS schtick which went over well.

I ask someone who would know four days ago if Ospreay had signed with EVOLVE the reply was: "Will hasnt officially signed it." I was pretty lazy in not prodding more beyond that.

The podcast was recorded a fair bit before that.

I believe he has signed signed with ROH. The UK tour is a hat tip and common sense would tell you New Japan's preference would be Will working with ROH and not EVOLVE.
