Elias and Jeff Hardy continued their in-ring feud while Riddle kept his eyes on the prize.
It was revealed earlier that the former NXT star was going to undergo a name change. Following his move to Raw on the annual Draft episode, fans noticed that his name and profile on the WWE Website was changed to simply “Riddle”.
This was a mere look into the future as he now finally debuted as the new character. There have also been a lot of speculations over his new gimmick.
Many strongly believe WWE will try to turn him into a character like the famous Supervillain of the same name from DC Comics. Riddle, as a character, is known for his mind games which is what the WWE Superstar specializes in.
