Has he actually fought the Bear yet?
No. Not least of which because it's actually quite hard to get bears to wrestle with you when you go out actively spoiling for a fight, because that's not prey behaviour.
Troy is one bad mood away form becoming a literal supervillain. After the bear suit, he invented a paste compound that is water soluble, can be sprayed, foamed or spread, is nontoxic, and is more fire-retardant than asbestos. You've never heard of it because one of the ingredients is Diet Coke, and the Coca-Cola company for some reason won't share their formula with him so he can deconstruct it.

With The Flash involved, that does bring whole new meanings to fast food . . . !
