WWE Superstar Riddle and his wife, Lisa Rennie

Riddle is one of the most exciting WWE Superstars to watch. His athletic ability is beyond doubt and has led him to several achievements since his debut three years ago. The 35-year-old is now a former United States Champion.

The Original Bro's wife, Lisa Rennie, is also an athlete. She is a two-time LSU All-American gymnast. She has also competed in a few CrossFit competitions and is currently an Olympic Weight Lifter.

The couple met before Riddle became a famous wrestler. They dated for a few years before getting married in 2011. Riddle and Lisa Rennie have three children. They have twin daughters and a son.

Riddle won his first title on the main roster earlier this year when he defeated Bobby Lashley and John Morrison at Elimination Chamber to capture the United States Title. However, he lost the title to Sheamus less than two months later at WrestleMania 37.

The Original Bro has allied himself with Randy Orton in the past few months, forming RK-Bro. However, The Viper turned on Riddle last Monday on RAW.
