Riddle had a backstage segment with Asuka, where he talked to her about scooters and if they’re used in Japan. The United States Champion, during the segment, said that he forgot his lines and walked away laughing.

On a recent Wrestling Observer Live, Bryan Alvarez said the line wasn’t planned, and Riddle legitimately forgot his lines. Alvarez said that Vince McMahon and Executive Director Bruce Prichard laughed at Riddle’s botch.

Alvarez said the reason Vince McMahon and Bruce Prichard kept the botch was because it “entertained” both of them.

Vince McMahon on Riddle

Riddle revealed earlier this year that Vince McMahon called him a “goof” and told him it wasn’t a “good thing”.

Riddle is currently on his best run since being called up to the main roster last year. The Original Bro is the current United States Champion and he will defend his title against Sheamus at WrestleMania 37.
