Riddle Discusses His Relationship With WWE Legends, Names Edge As A Dream Opponent

Riddle may not have a great relationship with legends like Brock Lesnar or Goldberg, but that doesn't mean every WWE legend has an issue with him.

Riddle was part of Raw Legends Night in January and despite his war of words with Lesnar and Goldberg, the majority of legends enjoy the reigning United States Champion.

"A lot of people think that I have heat with the legends, but the majority of the legends like me. I see Ric Flair all the time. He's been around now that he has this little thing with Lacey and he is one of the greatest, he always give some tips and advice. Booker T always gives me advice to put my shoes on, he doesn’t like seeing me wrestle with barefoot, he says, 'Go and get boots man!' and I’m like, 'It’s Riddle, Booker…' Carlito was there the other day, he is a nice guy; Christian, he gave me some tips he said: “Keep being a stallion” and I say “You too”. Edge is there all the time now, he is pretty legendary, he is cool. But do you know who was the best legend that was there? GILLBERG!! The guy is one of the nicest person that I’ve ever met. He wrestled, he’s been there, he’s been up, he’s been down… he was a pleasure, he gave great advice to everybody in the locker room and told stories about the past so he was a true treat," said Riddle in an interview with Vicente Beltrán (transcribed by Vi Be & Wrestling)

Riddle took a photo with Gillberg at Legends Night and used the caption to troll Goldberg.

While many of the legends are retired or working a limited schedule, Edge is once again a full-time performer and set to headline WrestleMania. And Riddle would like to step in the ring with him at some point.

"Edge is one of my dream matches. I mentioned him already in my dream scenario for a Tag Match. He is so good and brings presence. It's the same with Randy Orton. Randy is so good, so big, so athletic, and such a household name. He is a dream match like AJ Styles, especially with this new giant, he is a dream match. So if you can be in a program with them or get in a rivalry with them certainly is career-making," said Riddle.

Edge, who won the 2021 Royal Rumble, is set to challenge Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37.

As for Riddle, he captured the United States Championship at Elimination Chamber and picked up a victory over John Morrison the following night on Raw.
