Released WWE Star Claims Brock Lesnar Grabbed Them By The Neck During Backstage Altercation

There’s no denying that Brock Lesnar is one of the most intimidating figures in combat sports. Lesnar is certainly not one to be messed with and it seems that most people have figured out that it’s not a good idea to get on his bad side.

Matt Riddle had previously said publicly that he wanted to be the one to retire Brock Lesnar, but it doesn’t seem that his comments went over well with The Beast Incarnate. Riddle ended up getting into an altercation with Brock Lesnar at the 2020 Royal Rumble and recently explained how things unfolded during a virtual signing with Signed By Superstars.

“First time I met him, I had talked a lot of trash, so I kind of had it coming. I thought it was all in good spirit and good fun, plus I was on the indies, never thought I’d even get signed.

So I’m at Royal Rumble, my first time on the main roster, I’m super stoked, and I see Brock Lesnar, and he walks next to me. And I’m like, ‘What’s up dude?’ Then all of a sudden, his security guard, who I’m good friends with now, came up behind us and he goes, ‘You need help with this?’ And I’m like, ‘What?’ And then Brock grabs me by the neck, and he didn’t like ragdoll me, but he grabbed me by the neck, then proceeded to tell me we would never work together and keep my f******g mouth shut.”
