Matt Riddle has had a tumultuous start to his career on the main roster with numerous controversies surrounding him. However, real-life heat with one of the company’s biggest stars in Seth Rollins won’t solve the problem anytime soon.
Over the last 24 hours, many stories have pointed towards real-life heat between Matt Riddle and Seth Rollins. As per the rumor mill, Riddle bad-mouthed Rollins and felt he hasn’t evolved as a performer.
However, another interesting development has come up from this story. Well-known journalist, Gary Cassidy, has pulled out an interview from 2019.

Seeing reports of Matt Riddle and Seth Rollins having “real-life heat” – with one account saying Riddle badmouthed Rollins last year.
This doesn’t completely negate anything, but I interviewed Riddle a year ago and Seth Rollins was the first name he said he wanted to work with.

In this interview with Dropkick DiSKussions, Riddle was nowhere close to bad-mouthing the Architect. In fact, when asked about the Superstars he would like to face on the main roster, Seth Rollins was the first name that came to his mind.
“Obviously, I want to wrestle a lot of the guys on the main roster like Seth Rollins, Daniel Bryan, AJ Styles, Cesaro – I could keep going on. There’s a lot of talent on the main roster.”
While many feel bad-mouthing Rollins was the reason for hate, there can possibly be another reason behind this alleged feud.
