During a recent conversation with SKWrestling, Matt Riddle spoke on what it would be like to have teamed up w ith Rob Van Dam.

Matt Riddle talks teaming up with Rob Van Dam

“I think that tag team could have worked, definitely. Me and Rob Van Dam, we’re two stallions, we’re… what is it… feather and the bird? The same flock. You know what I’m saying, there’s that saying. But we’re basically the same dude, we’re the same bird feather, you know what I’m saying?

“A team [with RVD] makes sense but I’ve noticed with my teams, my success usually relies on how different we are. Like my first tag team in WWE with Pete Dunne, The BroserWeights, Pete’s way different than me. And then even with Randy right now, which we’re having great success with, you know, once he gets back [interview recorded before this week’s RAW]. We’ve been having great success.”

Like most combat sports enthusiasts, his passion for watching people fight began with WWE when he witnessed a young Brock Lesnar massacre Hulk Hogan back in 2002. This very passion soon branched out to boxing and mixed martial arts. Over the years he fell in love with the theatrics that preceded the bell and the poetic carnage that followed after. Each bruise a story to tell, each wound a song of struggle, his greatest desire is to be there to witness it all. His favorite wrestler is Shawn Michaels and he believes that GSP is the greatest to ever step foot inside the octagon. Apart from wrestling, he is also fond of poetry and music.
