Matt Riddle revealed why WWE decided to pass signing him

In a recent interview, indie sensation and former UFC star Matt Riddle revealed why WWE decided to pass signing him:

“I was still getting emails from Kane and stuff. So I was like, yeah. I think it was right before WrestleMania last year, they hit me up probably a couple months beforehand and they were like, hey Matt, sorry it took so long, but we’re going to take a pass on you. They said, not forever, of course, maybe down the road. But they said, because of your past … we don’t want to take a chance. I was like alright, I completely understand.”

In regards to his past, Riddle was released from his UFC contract for testing positive for marijuana twice within the span of a year.
