According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Radio, Riddle’s current WWE contract, which expires in August 2021, has been extended for another three years at $400,000 per year with a $50,000 bonus for every Saudi Arabia show he works. This will lock him up for the foreseeable future with WWE as he made his main roster debut just six months back (on the SmackDown immediately following the Backlash Pay-Per-View in June – The Original Bro made his debut by defeating AJ Styles on June 19).
Riddle is on track currently to challenge Bobby Lashley for the United States championship at Royal Rumble. Riddle is one of the best in-ring workers in the entire company in terms of stamina, so this match might serve to open some eyeballs as it pertains to Bobby Lashley’s current reign as United States Champion (and hopefully convince the WWE universe to perceive it with the legitimacy). In other words, the match might steal the show. It might also prove that Riddle is ready for a higher spot on the card on Monday Night RAW if all goes well. Riddle’s Spiccoli-inspired character from the movie ‘Fast Times at Ridgemont High’ will be gracing our televisions for years to come.
