10 Wrestlers Triple H Will Make Champion
6. Riddle
Wrestling is often booked with the needs of the time in mind. Roman Reigns being at the top of the totem pole over the last few years and his firm clutch on WWE’s world championships have given them refreshed value. A dominant champion creates a huge moment when they are finally toppled.
And if the company needs something totally different? Look no further than Riddle.
It’s not that Riddle should necessarily beat Roman (not that there’s anything wrong with that), but his bright and fun-loving character occupies a completely fresh space where wrestling can be silly and fun. A space where the world championship really rarely ventures.
A Natural babyface with good comedic chops and a legitimately impressive in-ring style, Riddle has the mixed martial arts history and tremendous body shape to be an agreeable champion with backstage names and the more casual audience.
Riddle and Orton’s time as an RK-Bro was a success that nobody anticipated, truly getting over together. It goes to show the enthusiasm that the Original Bro has when long-time WWE guardsman Orton heralds Riddle as being responsible for “rejuvenating” his career. When it’s time for the pair to go their separate ways, Riddle’s long-time association with a 14-time World Champion is sure to put him on the next level as a solo star.
