The former United States Champion Riddle recently had an interview on WWE Now India and spoke about several topics including the toughest matches he had since moving to main roster.
It’s been almost a year Riddle have moved up from NXT to main roster. He made his debut on Smackdown brand and later moved to WWE Raw. He spent majority of time on red brand and produced some exceptional and hard-hitting matches.
The Original Bro Riddle stated that he had couple of matches that felt him really brutal. One match was against RETRIBUTION on Survivor Series go-home edition of Raw last year, in which Team Raw defeated RETRIBUTION, that they crushed his sternum.
Another one was traditional 5-on-5 Survivor Series match against Team Smackdown last year, in which he felt his body blew up into million pieces while facing Otis of Team Smackdown.
“There’s been a couple of situations that even though they weren’t brutal, they felt really brutal. For example, the Survivor Series match this past year, even though we shut out SmackDown they didn’t even beat one of us, RAW dominated. Before that match we wrestled RETRIBUTION and RETRIBUTION… they crushed me. They hit me with this cannonball move and they crushed my sternum, I mean I could barely move. Then we got into that Survivor Series match, I remember Otis. I couldn’t even hurt Otis. I was kicking him in the chest and he wasn’t responding and then he tackled me and I thought my body blew up into a million pieces,” said Riddle.

During the interview, Riddle Bro revealed that Sheamus is the toughest opponent he face in the ring.
“Sheamus is a beast. Dude is big, huge, strong, he can fly off the top rope. He doesn’t get tired easy and he’s mean. Dude just likes to get hit and hit people. Honestly, the matches with Sheamus are probably my favorite and hardest hitting matches,” said Riddle.
Riddle lost his WWE United States Championship to Sheamus at WrestleMania 37 Night Two in a hard-hitting contest. Riddle even bleeded after a big brogue kick from Celtic Warrior and it’s no surprise he picking Sheamus as toughest opponent.
