EVOLVE Mini-Doc: Matt Riddle

[@thatguyfromak5190]

MMA's loss is Pro Wrestling's gain. This guy could be the next Kurt Angle if a big company picks him up.

[@12Azzabazza]

David Harding uuu

[@zodd2989]

He would have to give up the pot in order for that to happen

[@MisterB86]

Riddle's come a long way. Glad to see he's found a home in professional wrestling. The next crossover superstar.

[@jayboxingmma5918]

Matt riddle picked up wrestling so quick and hes great needs a NXT spot soon

[@_topropetalk_]

I know the WWE doesn't wanna give him a shot because of his past with THE UFC and the USADA but Man he would bring a whole new dynamic to NXT. imagine Riddle vs Nakamura OMG

[@wweTNAfan1000]

from what I've heard they sent him to evolve to get an indy following and they have plans for him

[@DarkSaber22]

WWE told him to go to Evolve to develop

[@rfuentes7752]

Let's Talk Wrestling he had nothing to do with USADA, when he was in the ufc USADA wasn't working with the ufc yet

[@Hallzerk]

T.M. Samuels

[@jamessorge3197]

WWE has apparently now signed him and he's expected to show up in the NXT crowd at the next event.

[@uzomaiwuagwu535]

I expect Matt Riddle to be named the Wrestling Observer's Rookie of 2016 if he keeps it up throughout this year.

[@Ivan_against_Cuisine]

This is exactly what is going to happen.He is the most improved and adaptable worker since Kurt Angle.

[@CasperTheTryHard]

VanishingWalker amen

[@morganadays3530]

Uzoma Iwuagwu you got it right

[@callmekyle1234]

Matt trains and wrestles at my local indy, the MFPW. I was there for his first ever wrestling match and since then I was impressed. This man is gold. He'll make it big in this industry.

[@jonathanjenes2799]

I've been waiting on this for SOOOO long.

[@gorditaopm]

So he's like literally the exact opposite of cm punk lolz

[@meatsauce3751]

More like an mma stoner Kurt angle

[@gorditaopm]

+Strong Style JEEZUS well I mean just in the fact that he transitioned from mma to wrestling successfully whereas punk did the opposite and failed badly lolz

[@ItsSomeDeadGuy]

Better than Punk at both too

[@Figs3]

ItsSomeDeadGuy I won't defend punk's mma career. But he was one of the greatest professional wrestlers to ever be in the ring.

[@WhelmedButReady]

ItsSomeDeadGuy He's not a better wrestler than Punk. However he could get there some day if he keeps at it

[@umarthegreat15]

Huge fan of his already. So much potential. Love Riddle... Bro.

[@chriswashingtonlodge9261]

Kenny's videos are really great. I hope Evolve does more stuff with him.

[@jasonmalachi7537]

He's badass

[@matthewbunce4657]

amazing wrestler

[@christianwilson5793]

Put him in NXT, and they will give him RVD's old "whatever" gimmick

[@iAMSpeedy213]

And now he is in NXT

[@badnewskellyleak5974]

he reminds me of a young Kerry Von Erich

[@MOOEY_DRAWS]

Loved Riddle in the UFC, so I'm glad he's doing well in pro wrestling. His look in the ring as an MMA fighter does come off a little weird though (reminds me of a Von Erich). The only issue I have is that if he isn't gonna wear shoes, at least give him MMA style gloves, like Brock. That way, he comes off more as an MMA fighter immediately, in case people don't know who he is.

[@a2ilool]

how am i suppose to boo this guy he looks so chilled we have another pure babyface on our hands

[@jordanlovett9097]

didn't WWE send him to Evolve to develop?

[@THEBLACKANARCHIST]

yes

[@mf4212]

This kid has a lot of potential. He can and more than likely be a star in the Wrestling business.

[@kevinjackson1275]

Any relation to Tom?

[@bryantmeraz7477]

sunday school 🎶 👌

[@faatirgreen4159]

Long lost Von Eric kid .....the broski

[@ezmokonnen]

This guy has the look, the physique, the personality & the in ring talent to be THE biggest fuckin star in a major promotion. I'm not sure what WWE's stance on the weed shit is but Jesus Christ this guy could be the next Kurt Angle except he has the makings of the face of a company. This guy needs to stay healthy cuz I'd love to see him get signed somewhere big

[@BAMFITNESSUSA]

Sounds like fun!

[@flashfunk0373]

Rare footage of a heel Matt Riddle.

[@nurandika4563]

Him and Dean Ambrose, put them in a same seat and compare on who looks more laid back.

[@CasperTheTryHard]

My new favorite indy guy

[@Eurico_el_grande]

him vs shibata its going to be stiff as fuck but awesome

[@zafarafay]

Erick Robinsson Holy shit...

[@scottmrrn98]

Anyone know the name of his theme?

[@jonathanjenes2799]

Regulate - Warren G.

[@BestOnMyBlock]

Regulate - Nate Dogg and Warren G. Photek remix

[@Stitches2390]

Blank Banshee!

[@kyleholland-standup9365]

BRO!

[@oktaperdana9414]

His theme sounds a lot like Warren G - Regulate, which is a good thing

[@VerkzKillsz]

damn, seems like a dope dude and 30 years old? he looks 18!! haha

[@VerkzKillsz]

damn nevermind, saw why he got fired from UFC, this dudes a bum. watch the dana white interview on why he got fired lol. bum.

[@scottmrrn98]

+verkzkillsz rather than watching the interview, could you fill me in?

[@VerkzKillsz]

+Raywowomg he got fired for not passing a drug test ... how fo you not pass a drug test when you only fight 3 times a year.. when they tell you before hand what days you're going to be tested and going to fight.. then he said he only smokes to calm himself from not beating his wife and kids.

[@kevinkusz7876]

He is a dope dude got to meet him#

[@kevinkusz7876]

+verkzkillsz he did a lot of bad ufc things but he is a great guy if you meet him

[@ianrobinson934]

Didn't Dana White say this guy was fired for failing a drug test?

[@xSoccerxCorex]

yeah, for pot.pot just gets you a fine in the E' now

[@juxhindeliu]

"Fired due to politics" LOL

[@TheMikeMase]

lol yeah more like he loved ganj too much.... I agree that it's ridiculous that anyone is getting fired from anywhere due to marijuana, but it was still funny the way he stated it

[@Timber5887]

when he says politics does he mean getting busted for weed? if so then he cant really complain

[@JimHardigan]

Timber Nick and Nate Diaz are still on the UFC roster

[@chuckrichardson6519]

I'm tally mark on peck guy in Cody Rhodes voice

[@philcollins5656]

he would get over huge in japan

[@MotorcityBart]

He got a lot of applause when he came out...all 12 people in the venue seemed pretty excited to see him. What the fuck happened to Riddle? I am really not sure what to think about Riddle, it seems to me that if he worked the right angle he should be in the W.W.E. by now, he coulld of been a high flying cruiser weight. I wonder if him and his wife are still married after he got out of mixed martial arts and told the media that the weed helped him from killing his kids! Jeez Louise I can't believe he said that shit to the press.

[@BretzkoPC]

example of what weed does to you

[@scarlettTG2704]

Bro

[@steveburt1824]

a loss to the UFC.

[@nomercyisme2124]

Steve Burt i watched him during his ufc time . Tbh he was an amazing skillful fighter . But as much as I remember. Marijuana killed his ufc career
