Gordan Ryan is widely recognized as the top submission grappler in the world. While Ryan is currently sidelined due to health issues, he’s been keeping up his online persona.
He has been embroiled in a long-standing feud with B-Team Jiu-Jitsu. However, recent developments following Ryan’s injury setbacks indicate a significant escalation between the two parties.
The B-Team comprises several former teammates of Ryan, including his younger brother Nicky, Craig Jones, and Nicky Rodriguez, who were all once members of the renowned Danaher Death Squad led by grappling pioneer John Danaher.
A reddit leaker has helped heighten tensions between the two camps. While there was a truce based on withholding details of the team split from the public, the truth has been recently threatening to bubble out.
The split is said to be a rooted in the rift between brothers who allegedly haven’t spoken for two years following the initial split.
There are rumblings about Ryan’s extraordinary lifestyle with his rumored wife that may have contributed to the split.
‘The King’ has long struggled with a bacterial imbalance in his stomach, impairing his training and competitive abilities. Unfortunately, his illness has recently worsened, prompting Ryan to share his ordeal online.
This post ignited a fiery war of words between Ryan and B-Team, which has been intensifying over the past few days. Nicky Rodriguez targeted ‘The King’ with a pointed comment insinuating that true greatness doesn’t rely on ster*ds, referring to Ryan as the “#NattyKing.”
Unfazed by the remark, Ryan swiftly responded, countering with a collage on Instagram showcasing his victories over both Nicky Rodriguez and Craig Jones. The online confrontation continued as Craig Jones engaged in a comment exchange with Ryan.
The B-Team’s Instagram account didn’t hold back either, adding a provocative comment that alluded to a physical confrontation. Meanwhile, Craig Jones took to his Instagram story to share additional content, further fueling the tension.
Today, Gordan Ryan took to Instagram once again, launching a scathing attack on the entire B-Team, including Ethan Crelinsten. This public display of animosity marks a new level of hostility between the parties, indicating that their feud is far from over.
