As previously noted, Matt Riddle was allegedly written off WWE television due to a failed drug test and that’s why an injury angle took place during the December 5th 2022 edition of WWE RAW.

Riddle has yet to make his television return and Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com said the following about Riddle’s WWE status heading into Wrestlemania 39…

“He’s been out of rehab for a long time, his suspension has been over for almost a month now – four weeks. It may be that they’ve just decided not to use him for Mania and not do anything with him, or maybe they just don’t want to invest in him. I presume he’ll be back, but when he left they made a point of (saying) he was gonna be gone for six weeks, and we’re at about 11 or 12 weeks.” (quote courtesy of WrestleTalk.com)

Riddle has been active on social media and publicly thanked his girlfriend for earlier this month for helping him in his recovery.
