WWE NXT star Matt Riddle got fans talking when he responded to a fan who tweeted about Lacey Evans not selling WWE SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley’s finisher after Monday’s episode of RAW went off the air.
Evans lost to WWE RAW Women’s Champion Becky Lynch in the dark main event which led to Bayley running out to make the save for Lynch. A fan tweeted a video of the segment, which saw Riddle write the following:
This appears to be a reference to Goldberg, who was in the headlines due to his match against The Undertaker at the WWE Super ShowDown pay-per-view event last week and Riddle taking shots at him on social media.
Riddle made some harsh comments about Goldberg in 2017 while talking with Sporting News. This was a time where Riddle wasn’t under contract with WWE.
During this interview, Riddle, who is one of WWE’s top prospect and seems destined to be called up to the main roster, was critical of Goldberg for a wide range of reasons.
Lynch makes her next title defense against Evans at the WWE Stomping Grounds pay-per-view event on Sunday, June 23 at the Tacoma Dome in Tacoma, WA.
