Brock Lesnar vows to never work with Matt Riddle

Matt Riddle and Brock Lesnar were reportedly involved in a backstage altercation before the Royal Rumble. Alex McCarthy has reported that the WWE Champion has told the NXT Superstar that he will never be working with him.

According to a WWE official, Lesnar is said to have approached Riddle backstage and grabbed his shoulder to get his attention. Then, Lesnar said: “Kid, you might as well stop saying my name and tagging me in sh*t because you and I will never work together. Ever.

Riddle, however, is confident that he will get his match with Lesnar. In a video released by WWE, he said:

"I really wanted to get my hands on Brock. You know, I saw him throwing everyone around, I don't care what he says or anybody else says, I don't care if he wants the match or not. I'm going to get it. I don't care. It's not up to him. I don't like being told no. Especially when I worked as hard as I did. And trust me. I guarantee you, I get my hands on him and I make that match happen. And I take his career...I promise, I PROMISE."
