First and foremost, if you’re a fan of wrestling outside of WWE, you should be watching Evolve. It’s a great roster of wrestlers from many different promotions and WWE has a hand in the promotion, and a lot of their talents are have and will end up in NXT.

It’s difficult with all the content WWE puts out every week, Lucha Underground, TNA, ROH, PWG, or anything else you can get your hands on. However, Evolve is worth your time because you’ll see fun talents like Matt Riddle before they catch on elsewhere.

Matt Riddle is a former MMA and UFC fighter with a recent record, so you know his legitimacy as a tough guy has transitioned well into the ring. He’s not stunning in the ring or anything, but he’s improved a lot in a short time. “Bro” is also a very fun chant.

According to a recent report from WrestlingNews.co, Riddle has signed a multi-year deal with WWN, which is the parent company of Evolve.

After Johnny Gargano passed him the torch at a recent show, the promotion is in Riddle’s hands. Don’t be surprised when you hear his name in the future or see him in NXT at some point over the next couple of years.
