WWE has uploaded images of the handwritten letter Riddle presented to Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville on last night's episode of Raw.

Riddle gave the authority figures the note in order to convince them to allow him to represent his R-K-Bro partner in his Money in the Bank 2021 qualification efforts, as Orton wasn't on the show. The former UFC fighter ended up failing in that regard, winning a battle royal but losing a Triple Threat later on, as Drew McIntyre took the MITB slot.

Nonetheless, here are the scrawled, felt-tip words that convinced Pearce and Deville:-

"Aloha. I THE VIPER RANDY ORTON, of sound body and mind, hereby declare that my best friend RIDDLE, hiterfore (sic) take my place in tonight's last chance triple threat match! RIDDLE is the coolest, most bodacious bro I could ask for and I would be honored if he were to fight on my behalf. Aloha, THE LEGEND KILLER"

See WWE's official Instagram page for the upload.

Riddle has already qualified for Money in the Bank last week, having defeated McIntyre himself. Orton, meanwhile, was unsuccessful against John Morrison, leading to him originally being placed in last night's second chance Triple Threat.

Orton's Raw absence was "due to circumstances beyond our control," in kayfabe.
