Now according to Alex McCarthy of TalkSport, McCarthy states that Lesnar approached Riddle and grabbed his shoulder to get his attention. Lesnar then told Riddle,
“Kid, you might as well stop saying my name and tagging me in sh*t because you and I will never work together. Ever.”
It is said that Riddle tried talking to Brock but did not get a chance to say anything. Basically Lesnar said all he felt he needed to say and then went on his way. McCarthy also stated that Riddle stayed calm as he always is and tensions never rose that high.
Despite Dave Meltzer saying that Riddle has heat on him and that he may have been ‘punished’ in the Rumble with being tossed out so quickly, McCarthy said that is not the case.
