Former WWE star Matt Riddle is enjoying the chance to split his time between MLW and New Japan, but says he won't rule out ever working for AEW or TNA in the future. In fact, Riddle would love to juggle both companies, but is hesitant to jump into a full-time schedule again any time soon.
The one time RK-Bro man told fans gathered for a Q&A at Monopoly Events/For The Love Of Wrestling that WWE's schedule became a real grind for him near the end. He said the "wear and tear" of constantly being on the road didn't do much for him after a while, so he'd like to chill out a little more and pick his bookings.
Basically, Riddle wants to have more fun with wrestling again. Bouts in MLW, New Japan and on the independent scene have reinvigorated Matt, so he isn't sure leaping into another full-time gig is the way to go. However, he would love to tick off both AEW and TNA someday.
Riddle also noted that he'd like a breather from live TV. The highly pressurised environment he experienced on shows like Raw? Yeah, he needs a detox from that.
