On the last edition of Monday Night RAW (5/24/21), former United States Champion and the one-half of team “RK-Bro”, Matt Riddle picked up an uncanny victory over New Day’s Xavier Woods.
Not only this but Riddle won the match after winning his tag team partner Randy Orton’s finishing maneuver, RKO. Following the shocking victory, Riddle addressed Orton.
