#3 Lars Sullivan could face Matt Riddle

Another victim of Lars Sullivan's heinous assault on SmackDown last week was Matt Riddle. Sullivan decimated the Original Bro and landed his finishing maneuver, The Freak Accident, on a weakened Matt Riddle. It was the first time fans had seen Riddle overpowered so effortlessly on the main roster.

Even though Riddle's nonchalant, flamboyant attitude doesn't make him look very intimidating, the former NXT North American Champion can do some severe damage when he is out for revenge. Fans saw a taste of how dangerous Riddle could be during the Original Bro's feud with King Corbin. Hence, it is safe to assume that Riddle would likely be out for revenge against Lars Sullivan.

Lars Sullivan and Matt Riddle never crossed paths in NXT, which comes as a surprise as they were on the same brand for some time. However, if the two top-caliber athletes end up on the same brand, they will probably battle each other in the ring. It all depends on Riddle's feud with King Corbin. If Riddle is finished with Corbin, then a match with Sullivan seems inevitable.
