Matt Riddle Comments On Signing With AEW

Matt Riddle Comments On Signing With AEW

Last September, Matt Riddle was released from WWE, and his 90-day non-compete clause expired in late December.

Matt Riddle competed for the first time after being released from WWE on January 6th at the MLW tapings, where he teamed up with Alex Kane to defeat World Titan Federation. The King of Bros defeated Jacob Fatu at MLW Kings of Colosseum.

In an interview with Signed By Superstars, Matt Riddle was asked about potentially joining AEW. Riddle said that he is currently in no rush to do TV matches. The Original Bro added that he wants to showcase his talent before appearing on television again.

“Yeah, honestly, I feel like a lot of the talent when I got released, were going to try to do that, I wanted to think outside the box and maybe not rush right back into doing TV matches. TV is a lot different than wrestling on ppl or the Indies. There are commercials, they cut times, [and] they change things. For me, right now, [in] New Japan, MLW, the Indies, I can display my art and I’m not under such a crunch of time or requirement. I have a lot more freedom. TNA isn’t out of the picture either. There are certain things I want to do. I really wanted to work in Japan and I made that a priority.”

The former United States Champion is scheduled to team up with a mystery partner to face Zack Sabre Jr. and Bad Dude Tito at NJPW Battle in the Valley.
