Riddle Claims Current WWE Star Is The Greatest Wrestler In The Current Era

Matt Riddle making WWE Raw entrance

Riddle has praised a WWE Raw star, claiming they are the “greatest in this era”.

WWE Raw star Riddle has been having a great year. First, the star found tag team success in an unlikely pairing with Randy Orton in RK-Bro until an injury to The Viper cut their run short.

However, this led to opportunities for the former United States Champion as a singles competitor. Continuing his rivalry with The Bloodline allowed him to earn a shot against Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns. Although Riddle couldn’t end Reigns’ dominant run, he pushed the Tribal Chief to the limit.

Currently, he is locked in a feud with Seth Freakin’ Rollins, with the two set to clash at SummerSlam.

During an interview with ProSieben MAXX, the Original Bro praised his opponent, describing Rollins as “one of the greatest”.

“So Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins is probably one of the best, greatest wrestlers to be doing it right now in this era and to be on the SummerSlam card against Seth Rollins, dude, there’s nothing — other than fighting for a world title or something like that, there’s nothing bigger than going against one of the best in the world at one of the biggest shows in the world in the biggest company in the world so, pretty, pretty excited bro. Plus, we’re going to Nashville. It’s a pretty fun town.”

When the subject turned to the status of Randy Orton, Riddle said that he didn’t have much of an update other than he is in high spirits.

“Randy [Orton] is still recovering from his injuries and hopefully he’ll be back sooner than later. I can’t give more of an update because I’m not a doctor and I don’t have one so, but I know Randy’s in high spirits for sure and he’s doing well.”
