#4 Riddle tries to become more of a babyface on WWE RAW

Riddle was looking for a match against Bobby Lashley for the United States Championship. That’s exactly what The Original Bro got this week on WWE RAW.

Riddle prepared to take on The All-Mighty but was beaten down by the Champion before the match could begin. Lashley took some revenge from last week, and Riddle was visibly shaken by the beatdown before the match could begin. While The Bro tried his best to win the United States Championship, he finally tapped out to The Hurt Lock.

It was awkward watching Riddle tap out to the painful submission for the second week in a row, but WWE managed to cover up some damage soon after on WWE RAW. Riddle challenged MVP to a match right away and gained the upper hand before Lashley caused a disqualification.

After the match, Lashley and MVP beat down Riddle and left him in a heap. The second match and the beatdown helped Riddle appear as more of a babyface than before. His will to fight in another match after getting torn apart by Lashley helped show that he’s always up for a fight. This will likely help him get another United States Championship shot on WWE RAW soon.
