Soon after it was reported that Roman Reigns has pulled out from his scheduled WrestleMania 36 match against Universal Champion Goldberg, NXT Superstar Matt Riddle took to Twitter and offered to replace The Big Dog at The Show of Shows.

Riddle has now posted a video on his official Twitter handle. The King of Bros hinted in the clip that he is hopeful about WWE calling him for a match, and has been working out just in case he receives a call. He then compared his skateboard to Goldberg's finishing move, Jackhammer, and dubbed the latter as being dangerous.
Oh man, just another day. Coronavirus, bro. Skateboarding around, working out, staying tight. Just in case I get a call for a match. I mean with Stallion Pete out of the country, I can't really defend my tag titles with him, so until he gets back it looks like The Bro is a singles competitor. Hmmm. Hmmm? This skateboard goes fast... almost as dangerous as a Jackhammer.
Ever since Goldberg came back to WWE last year, Riddle has been taking shots at the WWE Hall of Famer on social media. Riddle was very active on Twitter during Goldberg's outing with The Undertaker at Super ShowDown 2019, and went as far as calling him the worst wrestler in the business.
The two had a backstage confrontation during SummerSlam 2019. Goldberg hasn't responded to Riddle on social media yet, but has belittled him in several interviews.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
