WWE Offers Injury Update On Riddle Following Tag Title Unification Bout

WWE

WWE has provided an injury update on Riddle, following the Tag Team Title Unification bout on Friday’s (May 20) edition of SmackDown.

On the show, The Usos defeated RK-Bro to walk away with both the Raw and SmackDown Tag Team Championships.

During the bout, the ref threw up the ‘X’ symbol (usually signifying a legit injury), and it was noted that Riddle had hurt his hip. He ultimately finished the match, pinned after a splash, following interference from Roman Reigns.

The Bloodline continued to beat Riddle down after the bout, putting him through the ringside announcers table, before standing tall in the ring with all the gold.

Per WWE, Riddle and Orton are both undergoing a medical evaluation. WWE tweeted:

“As a result of a vicious attack by The Bloodline in the wake of SmackDown’s Tag Team Title Unification Match, Riddle has suffered a bruised hip and lower back and both he and Randy Orton are undergoing a medical evaluation.”

WWE currently has big plans for Riddle and Orton in the main event scene, which you can read more about right here.
