[8.0] "Matt riddle is one of the most completed wrestlers, switching from mma to professional is not an easy task, but he made it look so easy, he became the best wrestler in 2 years, im a fan of him, but wwe kinda did him dirty, NXT he was so good, but the main roster he wasnt that good, its like they waltered his style down, im glad hes doing great outside of wwe.Althrough the accusations coming out on him made me loose sum resect for him, i still like him as a wrestler."

[7.0] "Matt Riddle is a very talented in-ring worker and exhales charisma wherever he goes, but he can be obnoxious and over the top a lot, and like some controversial wrestlers, he is his own worst enemy when it comes to sabotaging his reputation. I would like to see Matt Riddle in WWE again one day, but for now, he's fine on the independent scene and he's doing just fine there."

[6.0] "I just don't see it, guys. He's got all the worst tendencies of Rob Van Dam and his offense looks pretty weak. He just does not strike me as a serious threat in the ring and is more of a social liability than an asset outside of it. Still got a betting pool going on how long until he gets deported from Japan."

[5.0] "Matt Riddle is very good at wrestling and people think he's funny, but I'm not sold on him as anything. Not that his character is bad or that he can't handle himself in a long program, he just doesn't seem to mesh well with the same range of characters as other top players (Ryback suffered from this issue as well, among other things) and I don't get as excited when I imagine him taking on the best the roster has to offer as much as a Gunther or a Drew McIntyre or even a Bron Breakker. He also seems to struggle with promos."

[8.0] "One of the best wrestlers to blend MMA with their wrestling style, very charismatic and RK-Bro was a great tag team. Sad will never get a reunion of RK-Bro due to you-know-what."
Frank Shooter wrote on 20.10.2023:
[7.0] "It's really sad his bad behaviour has killed any spark of brightness in his WWE career, 'cause he had everything to be a top star. A funny gimmick, good on the microphone, his laid back personality, a solid story with one of the greatest of all time in Randy Orton, he is really good in the ring... At least he hasn't reached the Velveteen Dream levels of stupidity as far as we know."
The Phenomenal Nightmare wrote on 08.10.2023:
[7.0] "Matt Riddle, an excellent wrestler, very talented and charismatic, but not a very good person according to everything that has been said. His personal problems and problems with drugs and alcohol and other controversy caused his career in WWE to end with his release from contract in 2023. Although his career in WWE was good, he won the United States Championship and was part of a great Tag Team with Randy Orton, and Orton never betrayed him."
Ozzy wrote on 08.08.2023:
[7.0] "Matt is a good mid card hand. I dotn see him as main event in WWE, but send him to TNA or AEW and he should be a dominating force. He is a near perfect fit for the US title, and would be a good man to beat theory or LA Knight. Just an amusing presence on screen whenever hes on, and his work with Randy was some of the best tag work of the era, where its only topped by Shinsuke & Boogs, Usos, KO& Sami and FTR. Overall just great"

[7.0] "Riddle is a guy who I am constantly changing my mind about, he comes across as irritating, he wrestles almost naked which is a visual eye sore, his moveset is unique and entertaining. His work with Randy was pretty good but we never saw a payoff, I don't see this guy as a future world champion but he at least has a spot reserved in the mid card."
alemolina wrote on 28.04.2023:
[6.0] "He is a solid in ring performer, but I really hate his character. A former UFC fighter should not be a f*cking clown. I had big hopes for him, but now they are all dead."

[4.0] "Not my cup of tea at all. He has good technique and athleticism thanks to his MMA background but that's where it stops for me. I don't buy his work and that's why I feel he is misplaced as a top level guy despite his obvious legitimacy, and that's ignoring his perpetually awful gimmick."
YourKingMob wrote on 18.04.2023:
[3.0] "I had such hopes for Riddle, but he turned out to be horrible human being and a rapist. Also, he is one of the few wrestlers who got WORSE as time went on. His run in Progress, besides leading to him raping someone, also magnified all the worst aspects of his wrestling. Then when he got to NXT he continued to degrade. He has a fun character now in the WWE and could go in the ring back before Progress, but he's trash human being and has burned his personal life to a crisp. A perfect fate for someone who I had to throw away his shirt for me and my kid. I can't have my kid wearing a rapist's shirt. You blew it, bro."

[6.0] "Riddle has some talent but has never really connected with me. His character is really inconsistent as sometimes he is a dumb stoner most of the time and occassionally they bring in his UFC background. In the ring he is very good although I have not been impressed on the mic."

[8.0] "I like that Matt Riddle because he has a goofy persona but can be taken seriously because of his legit background in MMA. He's entertaining and is a 1 of 1 in wrestling. I liked the serious side he showed in his feud with Seth Rollins. I prefer him as a single. Wasn't a a fan of RK-Bro because I don't like thrown together teams. He has solidified himself as a good mid card babyface."
face painted legend wrote on 24.11.2022:
[8.0] "Came in to WWE with a legitimate UFC background, so I knew immediately that they are gonna give him a lot of range, and of course that's exactly what happened. He can take care of himself in the ring if he needs to, hurt someone for real if he has to, etc, and that's right on their meal ticket. He went all in on it. He's not afraid to go out there in flip flops, wear the vibrant colors, ride a scooter, and be a total air head, or stoner as someone else called it. Then when the time and feud calls for it turn up the intensity, be more serious about things, and be viewed as a threat to whoever he's wrestling. I also think having that going for him translates well chemistry wise too with opponents or partners because he can play off their characters with whatever role or range needs to be played."

Adaptinho wrote on 17.08.2022:
[6.0] "I still don't understand what people find in Riddle. His micro skills looks like he was taken from a school lesson and immediately given to speak in the ring. He's good in the ring, but his micro skills and charisma are shit."

[5.0] "Amazing in NXT, one of the best performers down there in recent years. On the main roster, he's been the most unbearable character on the roster and it's only gotten worse since he started using Orton's moves. The allegations are unsettling and his story seems very conflicted and confusing, so I still feel a discomfort in my stomach whenever he's on screen now as well."

texasyosh wrote on 09.05.2022:
[6.0] "I feel the allegations that came out about Riddle really diminished his likability. Aside from that, Riddle is a very athletic and talented wrestler, though has shown to have trouble at interviews. His airhead character is good, but I'm not sure the longevity he'll get out of it."
zags7000 wrote on 05.05.2022:
[8.0] "His character is great and would work as a simple comedic wrestler. However, his talent and his ability to get the crowd behind him along with his strong promo work makes him one of the few comedic wrestlers who could main event. An underrated wrestler because of this he can work with the best of them and his work in NXT and outside WWE shows that. Hopefully he will get his time in a prime slot on the main roster as he can put on some classic performances. Edit: While what I said still remains true, I lowered his grade as his character can be a bit much at times. The more I see him the more I see a solid performer and not someone at the main event level on his own. He's still good in the ring and his charisma is off the charts but it can be a bit much at times and I sometimes struggle seeing something more out of him."

[2.0] "I've never been a fan of his in-ring or promo work. His gimmick was simple and over on the indies, but in WWE, the flashy and ostentatious presentation really hurts the "bro" schtick. (They also never should've gotten rid of his first name. Like Jesus Christ, "Matt Riddle" is not a mouthful.) Add to that that he and his wife are apparently pricks and yeah, it's safe to say this guy can suck it."

Als ich groß wurde mit Wrestling gab es Leute wie den Undertaker oder den Ultimate Warrior, Ted DiBiase, Jake "The Snake" Roberts, Bam Bam Bigelow, Vader, Roddy Piper ... Was hätten die wohl dazu gesagt? Ein Papa Shango hatte auch schwarze Fingernägel aber aus anderen Gründen:)! Das zeigt, wie sehr sich das Business verändert hat! Für mich fehlt da was im Vergleich zu früher, auch wenn er ganz gut wrestlen kann und mit Orton im Team zieht er schon Fans, aber Riddle ist für mich das Beispiel par excellene, dass die Zielgruppe von WWE ganz eindeutig das Alter von 10 - 30 ist. Aber er kann gut einstecken, das muss man schon zugeben."

[1.0] "So this guy was a MMA fighter yet his strikes look softer than a shot from a pipe cleaner. His submissions never look like they are so easy to escape. I don't think anyone every told him what selling is. Then let's talk about his character work I don't why he figured being annoying and random was a good idea but that is what his character seems to be"
HazJoseph wrote on 31.12.2021:
[5.0] "I ... don't think I get Riddle. I feel like he's not for me. He's good in ring but for this guy who's booked as a super MMA star, his moveset doesn't feel any more MMA influenced than anyone else's to me. I get why the Bro stuff is over, but it leaves me cold. It just reminds me of the guys who picked on me at school, but a really weak wannabe version of them. If he was a heel that'd be one thing, but he mostly works as an ultra-face. It might be me, but there's something missing. *Update*: WWE have leaned into all the most irritating elements of his character in their booking - not his fault, but I was right."
mjs2212 wrote on 03.09.2021:
[2.0] "I know that this rating may seem way too low for some people, but to be completely honest, I cannot stand Matt Riddle. Much of the reason why is because his gimmick is almost unbearable. He's not that funny, his promos are cacky, and is just following the stereotype that RVD had many years ago, but worse. I guess as a wrestler, he's fine, but I more so consider him overrated because I don't see him bringing much to the table. I don't understand the hype for this guy and I don't think I ever will. But to be fair, Randy Orton saw something in him, so I guess that's worth something."

[9.0] "Bringt aktuell viel Erfrischung in die Shows. Er schafft es, trotz eines Comedy-Gimmicks, ein erstzunehmenden Charakter darzustellen. Was er im Ring zeigt, ist richtig wild. Für mich persönlich wird seine Leistung im Ring krass underrated. Er vereint Elemente aus verschiedensten Stilen und Disziplinen und zeigt zwischendurch unglaubliche Aktionen. Auch mit seinem Look lässt sich arbeiten. Sieht zwar ein bisschen aus wie ein prekärer 19-jähriger und redet passenderweise auch so. Aber er strahlt trotzdem eine gewisse Gefahr aus. Das Team mit Orton ist eine interessante Idee und dazu noch ultra unterhaltsam."

KENTAfan wrote on 24.06.2021:
[9.0] "Riddle is a bit of an anomaly. Whereas most NXT superstars flop as soon as they get to the main roster, he's done the opposite, consistently putting on great matches and doing a superb job as a comedy act that can go in the ring whenever he needs to be serious. His character is honestly great, he's done better on the main roster than he ever did in NXT. And it looks like he's only getting started, with 2021 being a very promising year for him so far. One of the better wrestlers in the company for sure."

He's one of very few to hold the WWN Championship and he's held countless other championships on the indie scene. He's one of my all-time favorite American pro wrestlers and he continuously has entertaining matches. Glad WWE picked him up and capitalized on him. Great character, great wrestler, great look, and unbelievable skill. Love him as a singles wrestler and as a tag wrestler. The Chosen Bros with Jeff Cobb was a dream team, and his mega powers-like team up with Pete Dunne was incredible as well."

It still doesn't keep up with how amazing he's in the ring. Very versatile and enjoyable moveset. Somebody who doesn't know about his sports background, will definitely realize it from his performances. As long as his real life personality shines more through his "Bro" gimmick, he'll definitely become one of the best wrestlers of this age."

KyleEnjoysWrestling wrote on 07.08.2019:
[8.0] "I think it's undoubtable that Riddle is extremely skilled in the ring. His offense is unique & fun to watch. He can beat you via submission with the Bromission, via ref stopage with multiple elbow strikes, or via pinfall after the Floating Bro. A guy having not just multiple finishers, but multiple finishers that lead to different ways to win a match is pretty unheard of in the context of today's product. I'm not as in love with Riddle as most other people are. In fact, I was not really fond of him when I first caught wind. Some dude who just wants to smoke weed, has poor grammar & seems like he wants to hang out with Jake Paul? Sounds like my mortal enemy. But he's winning me over with his in ring work. I'm still a little up in the air with his character work & he's now starting to ruffle some feathers with his lack of respect towards some legends. It will be interesting to see how the Matt Riddle story plays out."
LeafKing wrote on 17.07.2019:
[4.0] "It's still very early in his career so this might change, but for now I see Matt Riddle as a run-of-a-mil MMA guy playing pro wrestler. He's had some good matches and it's cool knowing a guy can really fight, but a lot of his stuff also ends up being tedious because of the MMA style. Moreover, his personality really rubs me the wrong way, lol, and I just don't like the guy right now. Again though, it's possible that changes in the future and I'll reevaluate my stance on him."

Matt Riddle is the embodiment of wrestling in the 2010s. A cool, likeable, badass with a great sense of comedy and a great knowledge of the business. He can absolutely go inside the ring and his psychology is on point, too. You gotta love the Original Bro."

Sicherlich hat er ein gewisses Charisma, das möchte ich ihm nicht absprechen, aber daraus macht er mit diesem Gimmick und auch in seinen Matches recht wenig.

Er hat es geschafft, seine Grundfähgikeiten aus dem MMA so ins Wrestling zu transferieren, dass er einen eigenen Stil kreiert hat, mit dem er weltklasse Matches worken kann. Er ist sehr stiff und Strong Style basiert und gleichzietig jemand, der die Offensive seiner Gegner unglaublich in Szene setzen kann. Im Ring verdient er 9 Punkte. Charisma ist bei ihm jede Menge vorhanden. Er schafft es als cocky babyface unglaublich over zu kommen aber funktioniert auch als Heel und daher auch hier 9 Punkte. Micwork finde ich bei ihm ähnlich wie bei Keith Lee gut weil sehr laid back aber etwas wenig. Deshalb in diesem Bereich 8 Punkte. Alles in Allem 9 Punkte für den Bro."

[9.0] "This guy is a god damn prodigy. I don't know anything about UFC but huge credit to Monster Factory for training, EVOLVE for their early booking of him and of course Matt Riddle himself who has had incredible matches with Cedric Alexander, Chris Hero, Zack Sabre Jr, Trevor Lee, Drew Galloway, Tracy Williams, Drew Gulak, Roderick Strong, Ciampa and more. Riddle should have won the EVOLVE World Championship from Thatcher, I think it was a mistake to keep that title off him. But Riddle has successfully acquired major titles in WWN, Progress Wrestling (he's the best Atlas Champion so far) and PWG. Currently holds the top title for Pro Wrestling Chaos too, which perhaps he can make a go of in the same way that Ethan Page is the SWE Championship or Drew Galloway did the ICW Championship. Riddle in 2018 should make the most of the title opportunities available to him, particularly in EVOLVE/WWN, Progress, RPW and PWG. He should defend those titles in as many places as will permit him to. And then a move should be made to ROH/NJPW or NXT if possible. Riddle rode into the indies like a wrecking ball but he will eventually stagnate as his losses begin to mount up as he plays the role of a former champion."

His selling is also improving. His tag work with jeff cobb as chosen bros is just outstanding. Right now he is already one of the best wrestlers in the world."

Sein Style ist einzigartig, so auch seine Erscheinung. Bei PROGRESS tolle und brutale Matches gegen WALTER, in PWG tolle technisch basierte TT Matches zusammen mit Cobb. Gebe 8, mit hoher Tendenz nach oben."

[10.0] "Quite possibly the biggest star in indie wrestling. Mr. Matthew Riddle carries himself like he owns the damn place and it's absolutely awesome. Being a fantastic grappler in the UFC, he carried it over to pro wrasslin like it was nothing. I don't remember somebody having this good of a rookie year since Kurt Angle came in and became a monster. Not only is Riddle the defenition of charisma and a great worker, but he legit enjoys wrestling. Look at some of his tag matches with Jeff cobb in pwg or the Progress title match at Chapter 39. He has the biggest smile on his face during all the exchanges and even marks out for incredible spots like the fans. He's a true Bro"

[10.0] "Barely 3 year in wrestling business, but Riddle already has his own following and pretty well-recognised across independent wrestling promotions. He possesses that unteachable skill namely charisma and he equips it with his outstanding in ring skills that blends wrestling and MMA perfectly. He is surely one of my favorite wrestlers currently. I sure as hell think sky is the limit for him. He is destined for big future in wrestling, especially if he makes it to New Japan roster."

His work his good but I mostly enjoy his matches based on whoever he's in the ring with as yes he's goes the charisma and intensity and sells quite well but most of the time his facials are another story that just are over the top for me and I'd prefer if the guy wasn't barefoot and actually wore kneepads as well as he just doesn't come off as a pro wrestler at all."

[9.0] "BRO! Matt Riddle is the truth. Charismatic, full of swagger & an incredible in ring performer - especially when you realize that he only debuted in 2015. 2016 has been the first full year of his pro wrestling career, and he already has been one of the most outstanding wrestlers on the planet. If everything goes right, this man could be a 10 in the future. He's special."

[6.0] "Matt Riddle is still very green but he has a lot of natural ability and is very charismatic. He is kind of a hybrid of a Von Erich be it Kerry or Kevin with him being barefooted in the ring. I like his exuberance and he has an enormous amount of confidence. Of course he should be confidant being a fighter in the UFC and this will be very marketable for him. I see Riddle going very far in the World of Wrestling."
