– Randy Orton (via ImPAULsive):

“That last year before I had to leave WWE because of my back, I was in a tag team with Matt Riddle, and I’ve got to give him props, because that year we tagged together, I would not have been able to be in that ring, unless I was in there with someone like him, because he was able to take the brunt of the physicality, he’d tag me, I’d come in, and I’d do all of my shit. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have even made it that far.”
