According to FloSports’ managing editor Jeremy Botter, reports of Ryback being in talks with Bellator MMA are legitimate.
Botter’s confirmation stems from a related story from earlier this evening after Ryback appeared on CBS affiliate X 107.5 Las Vegas and discussed the idea of entering mixed martial arts. The RBR Into The Octagon Twitter originally reported Ryback said he was “open to the idea” of MMA and said he was in talks with Bellator.

I can confirm reports of former WWE star Ryback being in negotiations with Bellator. Won’t be surprised if it happens.
