10 Wrestlers Whose Stock Has Risen The Most Since WWE WrestleMania 37

Well, would you look at that: Riddle finally got that interaction with Brock Lesnar he's craved for the longest time. OK, so the walking smoke machine got the p*ss slapped out of him at both the Rumble and at Elimination Chamber, but at least WWE gave him an in-ring moment or two with Brock.

Besides, Riddle's stock has shot skyward since 'Mania 37. There, he lost the peripheral United States Title to Sheamus in a free-TV-quality match nobody recalls. Since then, he's become one of the most popular acts on Raw alongside RK-Bro teammate Randy Orton, and is all-but-guaranteed a marquee match against his pal when they split.

Riddle can use that as a springboard to WWE's top titles.

Perhaps the Orton bout will happen at 'Mania 38. Even if it doesn't, everyone's favourite stoner (sorry, RVD) will surely work some sort of tag bout and get a booming reaction from the Texas masses this April. He's on the up and up.
