In recent weeks, WWE has made headlines for a series of releases, which included both Superstars and over 100 employees from their headquarters. Among the names on the release list was Matt Riddle, whose exit from the company has continued to generate significant attention and speculation.
Matt Riddle’s departure from WWE was accompanied by a tumultuous incident that unfolded at JFK Airport in New York City. This incident occurred while Riddle was returning home from WWE’s Superstar Spectacle event in India. As exclusively reported by Ringside News, there were multiple attempts made to de-escalate the situation involving Riddle before it escalated into a physical altercation. Additionally, sources indicated that Riddle appeared to be under the influence of alcohol or intoxicated during the airport incident, adding a layer of complexity to the situation.
Recently, it was revealed that Matt Riddle had garnered heat within WWE for going off-script during a live promotional segment. To verify this report, Ringside News reached out and received confirmation from a tenured member of the creative team that such an incident had indeed occurred. However, it was emphasized that this off-script moment was just one among several factors contributing to the heat that Riddle had accumulated within the company.
“Yes it’s true, but that was so long ago, and he’s gotten heat for a couple of dozen other things since then as well.”
The acknowledgment of multiple instances of heat suggests that Riddle’s tenure in WWE was marked by various controversies and incidents that may have strained his relationship with the company. As the wrestling community continues to speculate about Riddle’s future endeavors in the industry, the circumstances surrounding his exit remain a subject of interest and discussion.
