Matt Riddle says things happen.
WWE released former WWE United States Champion on September 22. Ahead of his release, he was involved in an incident at JFK airport, as he accused an officer of sexual harassment in a now-deleted Instagram post. Reports noted that Riddle was reportedly the disorderly person who was deplaning that Port Authority officers got a call about. Riddle also has confirmed that he failed multiple drug tests during his time in WWE.
Speaking on , Ma🦋tt Riddle brought up his WWE release while he was commenting on how Randy Orton's in𝓰jury put their run as a team on hold.
"At the same time, that’s kind of the story of my life. In the UFC, five-fight win streak, beating top-ranked fighters, ranked top ten in the world at welterweight, you smoke weed, you’re fired. WWE, you’re killing it, your partner gets hurt, you’re kind of the guy that gets beat up by The Bloodline all the time or what you have, which is fine. But then you go to the airport, you have a couple cocktails and shit goes wrong, people say stuff to you. Whatever. At the end of the day, things happen, I am where I am. People would probably yell at me, but I wouldn’t change it for the world [laughs]. That’s just who I am. You’re supposed to have ups and downs, peaks and valleys," Riddle said.
