      I’ll give you the short version: Joey Ryan was a scuzzbucket who got caught up in wrestling’s version of the #MeToo movement (#SpeakingOut), and has been trying to weasel his way back in ever since. Apparently he thought we all forgot, or that we’d buy this “born again” hokum.

      Funny thing is, his most famous character was an unrepentant sleazeball. He would say feminist things “out of character” (on social media, in interviews, and what not) so we all wouldn’t realize how much of himself was actually in his character until the people he worked with finally spoke out
