Ryback was released in 2016

#3 Alberto Del Rio

El Patron!

‘Bitter’ may well be the best way to describe good old Alberto after his second exit from World Wrestling Entertainment. The multi-time World Champion was released from the company after a wellness policy violation, with his ongoing relationship with WWE superstar Paige continuing to cause problems for both parties in their careers.

From a wrestling perspective, however, Del Rio has done pretty well for himself with a string of appearances to his name on the independent circuit. In terms of notable victories, Alberto has captured both the TNA World Heavyweight Championship and the GFW Global Championship within a short space of time. Good for you, Captain Arrogant.
