As the head WWE’s creative department, Triple H is required to take tough decisions with regards to the roster. That can occasionally involve leaving out big names from major events. It has been reported that Hunter has nothing planned for Matt Riddle heading into WrestleMania 39 which caused quite an uproar among fans.
The Original Bro has been out of action for nearly three months. He was brutally attacked by Solo Sikoa on RAW, with a report later revealing that he had been suspended for failing a drug test.
Riddle received a 60-day suspension back in December and was sent to rehab. However, the former RAW Tag Team Champion's suspension has been over for nearly a month now and there is still no news on his return to the squared circle. Dave Meltzer provided an update on the situation, stating that the company has no plans for Matt heading into WrestleMania 39.
Being a popular star, many fans were disappointed with the report. However, a few people believe that it makes sense to hold his return for later. Check out the responses below:

Misha Montana provided an update on Matt Riddle's status amid WWE suspension
Matt Riddle was a prominent member of the WWE roster before a suspension derailed his career. The Original Bro was the highlight of RAW during his time with Randy Orton.
However, the former NXT star is done with the suspension and is out of rehab. Riddle's real-life partner, Misha Montana, provided an update on him, stating that he's doing well.
"Matt's great. He's wonderful. He's happy. Great and happy so it's good," she said.
While Matt's WWE status is unclear, one can expect him to go after The Bloodline upon his return. The villainous faction was responsible for putting Randy Orton out of action while the Original Bro was sidelined by Solo Sikoa.
Solo Sikoa is the only Bloodline member without an opponent at WrestleMania 39. While Roman Reigns is slated to defend his Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Cody Rhodes at the Showcase of the Immortals, The Usos are rumored to face Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens.
