Below are some top WWE & AEW news stories of the day.
• WWE released Matt Riddle in 2023 because he failed multiple drug tests due to cocaine use (confirmed by him) and his other controversies outside of the ring (including an incident at the airport).
However, Riddle thinks he’ll be back in WWE one day, because if CM Punk can, then he can as well.
Here’s what the former United States Champion said on SI Takedown:
“The chances of me going back, I think they’re extremely high. 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.”
