Former champion contrasts WWE’s creative process with his freedom in MLW.
Summary
– Matt Riddle says WWE used ideas it initially rejected
– He claims pitches resurfaced roughly two weeks later
– Riddle says MLW gives him more creative freedom
Matt Riddle says some of his WWE pitches reached television after initially being dismissed.
Discussing his experiences in a recent interview, Riddle claimed ideas described as poor suggestions would later appear in promos or comedy segments, sometimes about two weeks afterward. He did not identify specific examples during those remarks.
Riddle contrasted that process with MLW, where he says he has more freedom to contribute. He also praised the promotion’s organization and direction.
His criticism did not erase his positive memories of WWE. Riddle spoke proudly of his championship accomplishments and major event appearances, saying he tried to make the most of the opportunities he received.
