Matt Riddle’s First NXT Feud
It appears that WWE has an opponent in mind for Matt Riddle in NXT as his first feud is speculated to be against The Velveteen Dream due to the company teasing it on social media. Most recently, Dream sent out a tweet that mocks Riddle’s “Bro” catchphrase, which you can see here:
BRO….
I Don’t Get It
— HollyWood DREAM (@VelveteenWWE) September 12, 2018
It was revealed last month at NXT Takeover: Brooklyn 4 that he had signed with the WWE as he was sitting front row at the show. He has yet to make his television debut for NXT but is preparing for it while training at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida.
WWE does have a set of NXT TV tapings coming up next Thursday in Winter Park, which could be when Riddle makes his debut and starts to build this potential feud.
Champion vs. Champion Match Announced
