#4 Matt Riddle
Matt Riddle decided to make the bold switch from MMA to Pro wrestling/sports entertainment following his departure from UFC in 2013. He quickly made a name for himself on the independent scene, notably with Evolve, and questions were constantly being asked about when he will join WWE.
During an interview with Fightful in February 2017, Riddle revealed that he first met Triple H around the time of the 2016 Royal Rumble, two-and-a-half years before he eventually debuted on NXT television, but they only exchanged a few short words.
"He [Triple H] came up to me at an Evolve event and he goes, 'Hey, I appreciate what you're doing here' and I go, 'I appreciate what YOU'RE doing here.' Then he looked at me kind of weird and he goes, 'I just wanna thank you for everything you've done' and I go, 'I just wanna thank you for everything YOU'VE done', and he looked at me weird, shook my hand, and walked away."
