Matt Riddle is known to be one of the most controversial wrestlers in the world. He is known for being quite open with his words and doesn’t shy away from conflict. One person whom Riddle has spoken negatively about in recent years is Goldberg. This led to the famous backstage altercation between both men during WWE SummerSlam 2019.
Following this backstage incident, it seems like there is unfinished business between both men. Riddle has even called Goldberg out for a match in AEW which is weird since neither men are signed to the company.
Matt Riddle isn’t stopping his negative views on Goldberg anytime soon. During a recent interview with Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Riddle blatantly admitted that he’s not a huge fan of Goldberg’s work and his wrestling style.
“I’m just not a huge fan of his work, I’m not a huge fan of his wrestling style,” Riddle said. “I think he’s great at drawing money, I think he’s great at sports entertaining, I think he’s an awesome action star, I saw him playing Santa Claus in a horror movie, I told him all this.”
Despite this, Riddle still believes that Goldberg is one of the biggest draws of all time. He concluded by saying that he respects Goldberg for confronting him.
“When it comes to drawing and making money which, honestly this is what the business is about, he does it probably better, and he could still do it better than 90% of the people who do it today … I do respect Bill because he came up and said something.”
The war of words between both men has been going on for quite some time. At this point, it would just be better for them to settle their business in the ring.
