WWE Hall of Famer John Bradshaw Layfield, known as JBL, has joined the social media scene with BZZR, a new platform aimed at sports fans. BZZR seeks to unite enthusiasts by eliminating distractions often found on other platforms. It has attracted other notable figures in pro wrestling like MVP, Kayla Becker, and Dwayne Swayze.
Layfield’s involvement with BZZR began when he learned about its partnership with his favorite baseball team, the Texas Rangers. JBL expressed excitement about this opportunity, citing a personal connection to the Rangers through his grandfather, who was a devoted fan despite being blind.
“I’m a huge Texas Rangers fan and the Rangers have partnered with BZZR. My grandfather was blind but used to listen to the Rangers on the radio,” Layfield shared.
Among the features JBL appreciates about BZZR is its focus solely on sports content. The platform describes itself as “the world’s first streaming and social media platform built exclusively for sports without any nonsense.” JBL highlighted the platform’s commitment to real identity, which discourages anonymous negative commentary often seen online.
In his career, JBL was the 20th Triple Crown champion and the 10th Grand Slam champion in WWE history. He has also contributed as a commentator for AAA Lucha Libre Worldwide.
BZZR’s approach and sports-only content appeal to JBL, aligning with his values as both a fan and a public figure.
