During a recent appearance on the Barstool Rasslin’ podcast, Matt Riddle revealed that the scooter he used during his time in WWE wasn’t his idea. Instead, he wanted to use a dirt bike.
Riddle said, “The scooter, it wasn’t my idea. I actually suggested a dirt bike. I had an idea of the dirt bike, and Vince [McMahon] was in complete control at that time, and he’s like, ‘A scooter.’ Then I go, ‘What about a skateboard?’ But everybody in AEW was doing skateboards. So I didn’t do that. […] But the kids loved the scooter, and the kids buy scooters, they buy merchandise. I think the scooter, I still go to shows, and they’re like, ‘Hey, can you…’, people pay me extra to ride the scooter. I’ll ride it, dude. It’s gonna make a kid out there happy. I’ll ride it.“
During a recent appearance on the “That’s Wrestling” podcast, Low Ki commented on his time working as Kaval in WWE.
During that time period, he debuted as a rookie on NXT during its ‘game show’ era.
Low Ki said, “Everything that I had to go through in that company, I had answers for to try to improve upon, and I was still being met with resistance. I was still being met with the carny nonsense from these office people,” he said. “Hell, I had one of the writers tell me, ‘With your qualifications, if this was any other job, you would have been brought in as a CEO, but for whatever reason, they bring you in as a rookie.’“
