    Matt Riddle Discusses Not Being A Fan Of Goldberg, His Respect For Brock

    WWE NXT Superstar, Matt Riddle recently spoke with Talk Sport at Download Festival where he went into detail about his thoughts on Goldberg.

    Riddle was very vocal on social media during the WWE Super ShowDown about
    his feelings on the WWE Hall Of Famer, which took the wrestling world by surprise. In a new interview, Riddle discussed things in more detail.

    Why he isnt a fan of Goldberg:

    The thing for me is, and one of the reasons I was never a fan of Goldberg
    in the beginning when everybody was like Oh, hes so good! Riddle said. I
    was like No, hes terrible, hes hurting people and theres nothing else. He
    just has three-minute matches. And that was my thing and when people say
    Who was your favorite wrestler? I really dont have one. I just liked really good wrestling.

    Thats why I fight and I do that. So for me, I dont care how much money he makes, Im just glad people were entertained. But, stick to your wheelhouse, bro. And stop headbutting doors before you wrestle. And Im not hating—Im
    not hating—Im just spitting facts and these are all facts and things he should take into consideration. And not just for me, not because he got
    made fun of, but for his health, as well.

    His respect for Brock Lesnar:

    I have a huge amount of respect for Lesnar [as opposed to Goldberg], Riddle said. You know, hes done everything since he came into it. He works hard.
    You dont look like Lesnar without working hard. You dont pick up things,
    get to the top of multiple industries and sports without working hard. Do I like his work, per se, and his attitude right now? No. But, I think thats
    why its good [between them]. Hes the complete opposite of me, but were the same.

    Christopher Daniels Reveals He Was Planning To Retire In 2018

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 07:08 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/christopher-daniels-reveals-he-was-planning-to-retire-in-2018/


    AEW coach Christopher Daniels recently revealed his original plans to
    retire from professional wrestling in 2018 during an interview on Talk Is Jericho.

    “When we pitched the idea, the original idea was that it might be my transition out of the ring. My idea in January 2018 was Frankie and Sky
    would be there, I wouldn’t get my contract renewed, and I would return as whatever the authority figure was going to be. I thought, ‘I’ll be 49, that’s a good number to transition out of the ring.’ Now, I am 49, and I realize, ‘I don’t want to get out of the ring.”

    Rey Mysterio On What Led To Dominick Being Involved With WWE

    Posted: 16 Jun 2019 06:50 AM PDT https://www.prowrestling.com/rey-mysterio-on-what-led-to-dominick-being-involved-with-wwe/


    Rey Mysterio recently spoke with WrestlingInc.com about a range of topics including what led to his son Dominick being involved with WWE.

    On being on the road together:

    Now hes driving me as opposed to me driving him, revealed Mysterio. Were booking our hotels and car rentals and just enjoying life in general.
    Father and son – moments that I missed while he was growing up at home and
    I was on the road. Now we get to share those together as he wants to be a
    part of this business.

    If he wants him sign with WWE:

    Thats gonna be a very hard call because what I want is very different than
    what he wants. The only thing I can do is guide him and leave it for him to decide. Thats what Ive been doing for the last year or so – just letting
    him know how this works and how this happens. At the end of the day, hes
    man enough to make the decision on his own. I cant decide for him, stated Mysterio.

    How Dominick ended up being part of WWE:

    When I made my first appearance last year at the Royal Rumble, Dominick was with me. We introduced ourselves and our faces. Dominick hadnt been seen
    for a minute backstage in WWE, so it was a surprise to Vince and everybody
    that hadnt seen him, Mysterio said before adding that the size of Dominick surprised everyone.

    That reconnected our momentum going into future negotiations with WWE. I
    signed and came back in September and one thing led to another. I would
    imagine that some of the social media posts of Dominick training, as well
    as Vince and Hunter knowing that he was following in my footsteps [led to
    him being involved].
