TheVileOne Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Sounds like Riddle was drunk and disorderly when he got off the plane and caused a scene. He's not exactly proven to be a credible person of integrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 WWE are clearly playing it safe since he made his accusations public and the Port Authority plans to investigate. Wonder if they test him for drugs again as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Is a wrestler being drunk and disorderly a scandal now? I know it's not the '80s anymore, but sheesh. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're misunderstanding the situation. Riddle made a claim on IG only, not in the airport or to any authorities. The authorities and those working the airport are claiming Riddle was sauced out of his mind and making a scene and the only physicality was officers needing to restrain him. The fact that he deleted his post, I take to mean he has withdrawn his claim. I could be mis-reading that part of it. But it certainly seems less like a victim making a a credible claim and more someone trying to cover for their own poor behavior. WWE taking him off the road seems to support Riddle is actually the one here who committed a wrong, not airport staff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
username Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I feel you are also missing that he failed two drug tests in the past 13 months and was told point blank to go to rehab or be released (according to reports). If that person then ends up in an incident where he was seemingly publicly intoxicated to the degree cops were called... yeah, I think losing his job is possibly on the table. At the very least it seems very likely that he needs some sort of help and should maybe not be wrestling atm regardless. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoFistsJustFlips Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Weed is just a fine. As long as you're willing to pay repeated fines they don't care. They wouldn't send someone to rehab for that. I won't speculate any further than that. But it's a pretty safe bet it's not just weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teflon Turtle Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 "Let's have a bunch of wrestlers and sambo guys play basketball, what could possibly go wrong?" I love it. It's like somebody showed these dudes calcio storico/calcio florentino for the first time and they went "Give us five minutes and some booze. We can top that." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
