 What's good Josh your boy Ross back again with another video. So Apparently some Reports have came out today saying that Matt Riddle was originally supposed to win the men's Royal Rumble this year. Let's check this out on ringside news comm and Let's get right into this Matt Riddle was planned to win the 2022 men's Royal Rumble match The 2022 men's Royal Rumble match went through a lot of changes during the creation process There is also a ton of heat on shame a man, which I've already did a video about that Make sure you guys check it out It's a previous video not because of how he handled the booking process Seth Rollins was also booked for the match during a certain time, but he wasn't booked to win. Oh So maybe Seth Rollins was maybe supposed to be in there. I'm not sure that's crazy I didn't know Seth Rollins was supposed to be booked within that match after him being Destroyed by Roman Reigns at the beginning of the pay-per-view, but apparently they changed things According to PW Insider Matt Riddle was the original winner of the 2022 men's Royal Rumble match Obviously that didn't happen the original plan for the men's Rumble winner was Riddle PW Insider comm has learned Plans were changed over the course of the week a ton of times with the final decision to have Brock Lesnar in there and win as As a surprise at one point there was a pitch for Randy Orton to win as well But Riddle was the front runner until the switch back to Brock was made Which I can see why they would do Randy because he was he was a hometown favorite You know Zanzo I can see why they would do that, but I also understand them going with Matt Riddle Initially, this is interesting because a recent report from Russell votes Said that Riddle versus Randy Orton for the WWE title was pitch the thinking is RK bro split an eventual match Needs those stakes attack. Honestly, I wouldn't have picked Matt Riddle as The person to win this year's Royal Rumble, but I wouldn't have been mad if he did Imagine a scenario where is RK bro, they're left in there Randy Orton Matt Riddle Not shaming man and maybe somebody else maybe AJ Styles or or Drew McIntyre's or like the last four or whatever And Randy Orton gets eliminated by maybe Drew or some or somebody else And then the last two is Matt Riddle and maybe AJ Styles or Drew and Matt Riddle gets the dub imagine that the only reason why I don't have Matt Riddle eliminate Randy because It you don't want to kind of telegraph that few so yet like readily But it's in the back of people's mind and of course, I think the crowd with a booed Even more only because it was Randy was in his hometown So, you know, it would have made sense for Riddle to get that that Unexpected pop without getting extra booze and people still associate Matt Riddle with Randy Orton and then apparently now WWE is announced that Brock Lesnar not Brock Lesnar Bobby Lashley will be Defending his WWE championship in the elimination chamber what you could do Well, what they could have did have Randy Orton, you know Enter in the Royal the elimination chamber or whatnot and have him become the champion granted That is a little bit of hot potato in with the WWE championship still it would work because Then Matt Riddle can figure out who he's gonna choose, but we kind of know he's gonna go at You know, Randy Orton if Randy Orton was the champion He won a delimination chamber got the title from Bobby Lashley Randy Orton versus Matt Riddle for the WWE championship that would be cool And then you can really start playing up that story It makes sense for Matt Riddle to want to challenge Randy Orton for the WWE championship You know, it's just makes sense. So I don't know. I think that would have been on them It would have been a better story Of course, some people would say is that main event worthy? Will that be able to sell seats into the stadium? Well, here's the thing it can be main event worthy if it's booked correctly people like RK bro People have been invested in them as a tag team More than I ever expected So the fact that people are invested in them already people are gonna want to see Randy Orton You know saying once again, I get it. Oh, he's gonna be headline WrestleMania But if he's putting over Matt Riddle, you're creating a new star. So it works. I get it him being another champion a Multi-time champion, he shouldn't have the belt But if he's putting over Matt Riddle, which I think they would have did if they went that route Matt Riddle becomes a bigger star because of it. He's become a bigger star with him teaming up with Randy There's no doubt about it. He is definitely Randy has helped his star power Now he wins the Royal Rumble. He faces his former tag team champion partner in Randy Orton One of the best to ever do it and he beats him at WrestleMania this year. That would have been amazing Matt Riddle would have got his moment and hopefully they would have continued to book him correctly But that's just how I would have did it. This sounds way better than Brock winning because once again Brock is Brock Lesnar you guys want will Vince once Roman versus Brock you can still have that match You can still have it without him winning the Royal Rumble. I'm gonna just be honest with you You can is no way around that is Brock Lesnar They if you guys remember he came back before they went to Saudi last year I think it was like October or for the crown jewel He came back and declared himself as the number one contender and who was gonna tell him? No, like it's Brock. So he has that free range if you really wanted to do that You didn't have to have him win the Royal Rumble. I just think it really kind of messes over newer talent aka Matt Riddle because that would have been a great spot for him to win But comment down below. Let me know. Do you guys agree with my Fantasy booking here. Would you guys be okay with Randy Orton winning at the elimination chamber and facing Matt Riddle? if you want to won the Royal Rumble and How you guys would have you know enjoyed that compared to what we ended up getting because I just think Matt Riddle Definitely got screwed over and it looks like this was a nice minute change and just to know You're not even winning and someone else that lost their title is gonna have Win the Royal Rumble this year kind of sucks. So comment down below Let me know what you guys think about this whole situation Appreciate our love and support roll to send the cave. Appreciate y'all kicking me. See y'all next one. Peace
