However, when Randy Orton came back, Riddle had been released by WWE and Randy came back in tremendous physical condition. Riddle was asked about Randy Orton's appearance on the Barstool Rasslin' podcast and expressed his fondness for Randy as a cool person and his newfound thickness.

"Dude, he’s a big boy. He definitely thickened up. He looks good, though. He looks strong. Randy’s a big guy. [Brandon Walker asks if Orton is cool] He’s pretty cool, man. He’s a good guy.
