Matt Riddle was released from WWE in September after several failed drug tests and an incident at JFK Airport where he accused a Port Authority police officer of sexual harassment.

During a recent appearance on the “Developmentally Speaking” podcast, the Original Bro commented on his time in the company. He said,

“At the same time, that’s kind of the story of my life. In the UFC, five-fight win streak, beating top-ranked fighters, ranked top ten in the world at welterweight, you smoke weed, you’re fired. WWE, you’re killing it, your partner gets hurt, you’re kind of the guy that gets beat up by The Bloodline all the time or what you have, which is fine. But then you go to the airport, you have a couple cocktails and sh*t goes wrong, people say stuff to you. Whatever.”

He continued, “At the end of the day, things happen, I am where I am. People would probably yell at me, but I wouldn’t change it for the world [laughs]. That’s just who I am. You’re supposed to have ups and downs, peaks and valleys.”

During a recent appearance on the “In the Kliq” podcast, Kofi Kingston looked back at his KofiMania run that took him to the WWE Title at WrestleMania 35.

You can check out some highlights from the match below:

On the original plans for New Day for WrestleMania 35: “I don’t think I was even booked. I don’t think my plans were being talked about for WrestleMania. At that time we didn’t even really have anything going, we didn’t have a rivalry, we didn’t have a feud, we didn’t have a storyline, we didn’t really have much of anything going on. It was just the New Day being the New Day.”

On KofiMania catching on: “Originally, like our feud, me and Daniel Bryan was supposed to stop at Fastlane … whatever the pay-per-view was before Mania or in between Elimination Chamber and Mania. But being that it was such a huge crowd reaction and people were demanding that I’d be in that main event, that’s the direction that the company went, and I’m always grateful for that because that’s not always the case, you know?”
