Ryback recently spoke with DirecTV to promote the Royal Rumble. Check out the highlights:
On Batista's WWE return: "I'm offended that he's back. I'm the one and only "Big Guy" in the WWE. I go out there each and every night. I work the full schedule. I do all the cool power moves that you don't see anybody doing anymore. I go out there and wrestle for 30 minutes, which you don't see a lot of 295 lb. guys doing. I take a lot of pride in being big and having a lot of endurance and doing things that not everyone can do. So Batista is back, and it's cool from a fan's point of view, and I know he has some lofty goals, but this is my time now. I'm not taking a backseat to anyone. So if we end up in the ring together, it would give me great pleasure to throw him right over the top rope."
On which surprise Royal Rumble entrants he wants to see: "I'm sure a lot of people would love to see Goldberg show up and spear me right over the top rope. Whether that happens or not remains to be seen. But I also heard Jake 'The Snake' Roberts mention that he wanted to be in the Royal Rumble. Obviously, from watching him as a kid, it would be pretty cool to be in the ring and hear that music hit. Or someone like Hulk Hogan would be pretty surreal. But I wouldn't hesitate to throw either one of them over the top rope. My main thing is going out there and winning it."
On his dream tag team partner: "There's so many, but I'd love to be able to tag with Triple H, and not just because he's my boss. Just from the conversations we've had, he's on a whole other level. We don't have too many guys like that left – guys like Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart. Or a guy like Christian, who I'm looking forward to coming back. There's so much knowledge in his brain. He's wrestled all the greats – Ric Flair, Ricky Steamboat, guys like that. And I really wish Edge were still here. It killed me when I was out injured and he ended up having that final match with Alberto Del Rio. He was there while I was with the Nexus and he was just such a joy to be around. He's a good human being and just knew so much. He was always helping. Its guys like that that I wish were around still. But yeah, off the top of my head, Triple H would be pretty cool."
