On one of his recent live streams, former Intercontinental Champion Ryback claimed that WWE would hide secret microphones all over the backstage area in order to spy on their Superstars.
Here’s what The Big Guy said:
“You know, that was the rumor in WWE, I used to talk to people in WWE all the time, because I was told that Vince used to have microphones all over the ring to record conversations.
So, I would legitimately go talk sh*t by the microphones by the ring, I legitimately, I would go talk sh*t about them. You wanna hear what we’re talking about?
I’m not gonna feel bad about it. I’ll do it right in front of you.
They legitimately, I was told by people who have been there for many years that Vince McMahon and Kevin Dunn have things strategically placed around arenas to pick up conversations to know what the f**k is going on with the talent.
It’s invading privacy with that. How do they do that? Those rings have mics under them, they’re picking up everything too.”
Ryback wrestled for WWE from 2010 (known as Skip Sheffield at that point) until he left the promotion in 2016.
His biggest accomplishments were main eventing multiple pay-per-views, having matches at WrestleMania, challenging for the WWE Championship and winning the Intercontinental Championship on one occasion.
