The day before Matt Riddle debuts on Smackdown, one independent wrestler Candy Cartwright accused Riddle for Rape when they were riding together in 2018.

Candy took social media to reveal this incident and we all know that several wrestlers from many high profile wrestling promotions are getting accused of sexual assaults during this #Speakout movement trend on social media.

According to Dave Meltzer on Wresting Observer Radio, WWE already know about these allegations when they signed Riddle back in 2018 and after the accusations on social media Riddle’s lawyer release a statement in press:

PRESS RELEASE — REGARDING MATT RIDDLE
The allegations by this independent female performer are completely false and another attempt to harass and humiliate Mr. and Mrs. Riddle and to try to tarnish their reputation in the community. We have been aware for the last two years of this performer stalking the Riddle family. In 2019, our firm had drafted a pleading against this performer to seek an injunction for cyberstalking in the Circuit Court for Orange County, Florida.

WWE has also issued a statement that “We take any allegation of this nature very seriously and are looking into the matter.”

As of now only Jack Gallagher has been released from WWE following these allegations.
