Looking back, Riddle's WWE main roster run has been great. It's been a year since he debuted on the WWE main roster and after getting drafted to RAW in October 2020, things picked up for him quickly.

Riddle has found consistent TV time, and even entered his first WrestleMania as the United States Champion. Although he lost to Sheamus then, the post-WrestleMania outcome has been beneficial to him.

Teaming up with Randy Orton for the oddball pairing of RK-Bro captured the WWE Universe's interest right away. Sometimes, stories like that click, and this one certainly has. They had a great SummerSlam moment, winning the RAW Tag Team Championships together.

With the return of crowds, Riddle's popularity was confirmed. Apart from WrestleMania 37, his only experience on the WWE main roster was in the Thunderdome.

So far, he has had a good run on the WWE main roster and things may look up for him if he becomes a proven merchandise-seller. There are a lot of factors that go into pushing WWE stars, but Riddle has all the tools to succeed. Although his character is on the goofier side, he could become a WWE World Champion one day and definitely should before he retires.
