Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch have been two of the top stars in WWE for years now, and they’ve been on a rollercoaster ride for months as the couple welcomed their first child into the world, and they recently got married.
Riddle is currently trying to work his way up the ladder in WWE, but on the way up it seems that he made the wrong impression on Seth Rollins who during the 2020 Draft said, “I have no interest in facing Matt Riddle in my career. He can go to Raw as far as I’m concerned.”
Rollins and Riddle had issues in the past after Riddle’s wife shared a picture of Becky Lynch in an Instagram post where she made comments about the “Main Roster Divas” and called them out for being “straight, skinny, jiggly fat.” Recently Matt Riddle spoke to talkSPORT about his heat with Seth Rollins, and he said that they are two different people.
“I’ll be honest, I’ve met Seth multiple times and he’s met me and I don’t think we’ll ever be best friends [laughs]. I don’t think we like one another, we’re just two different people. [Although] we both love wrestling. I know my significant other said something about Becky that they didn’t like and I also did not like or agree with. Seth didn’t like me after that and I don’t think Becky liked me or my wife either, which is understandable. It is what it is.”
The former United States Champion went on to add that after Survivor Series he made it a point to apologize to Seth Rollins, and he got an interesting reaction from The SmackDown Savior.
“After Survivor Series, because he was there I got to talk to him and I said ‘Hey’ and a camera came up to us to film it and I said ‘No, don’t come over here, don’t film this. It’s between me and him. We talked. I told him – and this is exactly what I said – I said ‘Hey man, what was said, I don’t agree with it. I thought it was bullcrap. It’s not cool. I just want you to know I apologise, I apologise on her behalf as well. On top of that I think you’re a great performer and if you would ever have it in your heart to work with me, I would love that.”
“And, I know you’re taking some time off because Becky is pregnant, about to have a kid, just want to wish you luck, congratulations, enjoy your time with your beautiful girlfriend – at the time, now wife – and your beautiful child.’ And he literally looked at me and he goes ‘Holy s***. I didn’t expect that. Everything I hear from people and what I expected… that was really cool. Thank you.’ And that’s where we ended it. I said ‘Thank you for listening and giving me the time, bro. I hope we’re good now.’”
