RAW Superstar Riddle is reportedly scheduled for a WWE SmackDown angle with Sami Zayn tonight.
Riddle is scheduled to appear on SmackDown tonight to follow up on the challenge he gave to Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns on Monday night’s RAW. According to Fightful Select, a pitch for Riddle to work with Zayn on tonight’s event was made on Thursday.
One of the angles given was Zayn trying to get Riddle off SmackDown by defeating him in a bout, with the stipulation that if Zayn wins, Riddle will be banned from SmackDown.
As PWMania.com previously reported, WWE has removed Reigns from tonight’s SmackDown line-up. Riddle is expected to receive a championship opportunity from Reigns on an upcoming RAW or SmackDown, but it is unlikely to be tonight.
