Matt Riddle’s tenure with WWE was marked by a series of controversies and off-ring issues, which ultimately led to his unexpected release last year. Despite these challenges, Riddle remains optimistic about his potential return to WWE, believing that his chances of rejoining the company are quite high.
Since parting ways with WWE, Riddle has been actively involved in various wrestling promotions, including Major League Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling, among others.
While speaking during a recent conversation with Steven Muelhausen of SI Takedown, Matt Riddle expressed a strong belief that his chances of returning to WWE are quite high. He noted that if CM Punk could rejoin the wrestling world despite his past conflicts with WWE, it suggests that reconciliation is possible.
Riddle acknowledged his own challenges during his time with the company but remains hopeful that continued hard work could lead to a return. However, he also emphasized that he would be at peace with the possibility of not returning to WWE if it comes to that.
“The chances of me going back, I think they’re extremely high,” Riddle said. “If CM Punk, who filed a lawsuit against WWE, and then raked them through the mud for a decade, then goes to the competition, I’ll tell you this, if he can do that, everything can be forgiven. I know I wasn’t the easiest to work with at times. I think the door is always open.
“I think the longer I’m away, the harder I work, and the more I do, the more likely I could come back. But I’ll also say this, if I never go back ever again, and they never talk to me again, I’ll be ok with that.”
Matt Riddle was also relieved after his WWE firing last year. The wrestling landscape is always shifting, and future changes could influence the current scenario. Therefore, we’ll need to wait and see whether Matt Riddle will make a return to WWE in the future.
