As many of you know by now, there have been numerous reports that Matt Riddle has a lot of backstage heat on him in WWE these days. Numerous WWE producers and agents, as well as Vince McMahon himself, are reportedly frustrated over his tweets and the challenges issued. These types of posts are the knocks at WWE Champion Brock Lesnar and WWE Hall of Famer Bill Goldberg. It was noted that Lesnar doesn’t like Riddle for this same reason and Lesnar has “tremendous pull” with Vince. McMahon reportedly sees Riddle as an “outside guy” and feels like he has no respect for the hierarchy of the business by making such challenges.
Riddle is now joking around about those reports, as he responded to a FOX tweet about Goldberg’s appearance on SmackDown on Friday night. He said,
“I’m not gonna do what sources are saying I’m not suppose to do. Or am I? What are sources saying?”
