Riddle Might Cash In Money In The Bank On The Tag Titles To 'Win' Randy Orton Over
WWE superstar Riddle has joked he might cash in Money In The Bank on the RAW Tag Team Champions to 'win' Randy Orton over.
Riddle is set to face off against seven other men this weekend for a shot at the coveted briefcase.
The 'Original Bro' has struck up a friendship with Randy Orton in recent months and has even coined the 'RK-Bro' tag team name.
Orton isn't fully on board yet however and speaking to SPORTbible, Riddle was asked about cashing in on AJ Styles and Omos should he win on Sunday.
"I think you just gave me a brilliant idea, has anyone done that before? I'd be the first bro in history to use the Money In The Bank contract and cash in on the RAW Tag Team Champions... that's pretty serious.
"And honestly we might have to, to win because Omos is huge and he's almost unstoppable, the giant.
"I'd have to talk with Randy first, I wouldn't want to surprise him I'd want to surprise whoever we're cashing in on.
"I gotta talk to Randy. Maybe I'll make him some bro-nuts or some bro-gurt... the best way to a man's heart is through his stomach and I've gotta make Randy happy.
"First and foremost, make Randy happy."
Riddle first approached Orton in April after losing his United States Championship to Sheamus at the jam-packed night two of WrestleMania 37.
Orton had come off a win over Bray Wyatt at the show and many wondered how long a pairing with Riddle would last.
Both men have become a highlight of RAW and Riddle delved into their process when coming up with ideas.
He continued: "Randy has this persona, he's a lot different from me when it comes to this, but in real life we're a lot alike.
"So when we speak, when we talk and we work together, we bounce a lot of ideas off each other and when I work with Randy, it doesn't seem like work, it just seems like I'm having fun.
"When I work with Randy, the day flies by. I'd be lying if I said I don't love my time with Randy, he's hilarious, tells the funniest jokes.
"We have good ideas, hilarious ideas, even some bad ideas."
So... what is considered a bad idea?
"To me, I think it's a good idea, Randy thinks it's a bad idea!" Riddle joked.
"Did I mention snakeskin Speedos? Randy already wears trunks himself and we started talking about me getting a pair made and getting it made up. I thought it was a great idea.
"I put a pair of trunks on just to see how they'd look on me. I've done it once before in my career and I'd forgotten why I didn't do it again. When I put then back on, I remembered again.
"It's because I don't wear anything else but my shorts. So when I wear trunks, I already look kinda naked, but I look extremely naked when I wear trunks.
"Certain times when I'm selling, all you can see is skin. So I thought maybe this is a little too much for the WWE Universe and I think everyone else agreed.
"Snakeskin Speedos, I'm too naked. So that was one of my bad ideas! (laughs)"
