Matt Riddle Signs With WWE

It’s that time of year again! Summerslam season is approaching fast and people are now getting a clearer idea of what’s going on during WWE’s second biggest weekend of the year. Now, it seems like the WWE Universe can look forward to a new arrival to the company! WWE has reportedly signed Matt Riddle to a 3-year deal!

It had been rumored that Riddle was on his way to WWE after Combat Zone Wrestling (an Indy Promotion Riddle was booked for) posted a graphic saying that it was one of his last indy appearances before going to WWE. The graphic was quickly taken down and replaced with one that didn’t say WWE.

It is being reported that Riddle will start in NXT and be called up onto the main roster from there in the future.

Reaction

This is a great signing! Matt Riddle is a high profile star and will add even more intrigue to the already hot NXT brand. Riddle will fit right in with the likes of Adam Cole, Ricochet, and Johnny Gargano. Furthermore, Riddle will bring a new following with him to WWE so more people will watch NXT with him on the show.

NXT is slowly but surely becoming WWE’s top show. More people are watching NXT now than ever before. This is for several reasons. The matches are better than almost anything else on WWE TV, the stories seem more creative, and the performers they have gathered in NXT are more talented now than ever before.

Adding a superstar of Riddle’s character will only make the brand stronger and more popular. Triple H will have some of the best wrestlers in the world at his disposal to continue to build the brand!
