### Hardcore Champion (2020)

Riddle (as **Matt Riddle**) made his WSC debut in the 2020 Elimination Chamber along with Joker Jon Moxley, John Morrison, John Cena, The Fiend, and champion Kevin Owens. Riddle was the first one out of the pod, kicking everyone, but then got Powerbomed by Owens to the chain wall. Moxley was the 2nd person let out of his pod. Then during the match, Riddle pinned Owens with a Floating Bro off of the structure to the ring, guaranteeing a new WSC Hardcore Champion, though immediately after Riddle pinned Owens, Moxley hit Riddle with a hammer given by The Jokerz and pinned Riddle and eliminated him with a Paradigm Shift.

Riddle then showed up in the April 2020 Royal Rumble at #12, but unexpectedly got eliminated by ally The Stage Creator. Riddle then appeared and faced off against Brock Lesnar and everyone pretty much knew that Matt was gonna lose. But, through everyone's surprise, Riddle knocked-out Lesnar with a Final Flash and pinned him to win the WSC Hardcore Championship in 35 seconds!! Riddle then had to defend his title in a Fatal 4 way Match along with Lesnar, The Fiend, and Jon Moxley and everyone pretty much was like "Yeah, Matt is gonna lose now"... Nope! Riddle did a Floating Bro on Fiend and quickly pinned Lesnar to retain. Riddle then surprisingly retained his championship against Goldberg in a Halloween Match. Riddle was then placed in a Tag Team Gauntlet Match for the WSC Hardcore Tag Team Championships. Matt and his tag partner Pete Dunne as The Broserweights were the first people out to face against champions The Usos. During the match, Riddle accidentally Roundhoused Dunne as Jimmy Uso ducked. Dunne tried to get up, but got kicked again by Jimmy's foot as Riddle goes for the Bro Derek. Riddle went for the pin, but Dunne stomps on them in rage to stop the pin and then Riddle gets beaten up by Dunne. Riddle then gets pinned and Dunne walks off.

After the match, Riddle then confronts Dunne. But then, Riddle and Dunne have a backstage brawl which ends with Riddle's hand being broken.Riddle then returns in the November 2020 Royal Rumble (with bandages around his fingers) at #8. During the match, Riddle along with Triple H, Seth Rollins, Moxley, and Owens managed to eliminate Viscera. Unfortunately, as Rey Mysterio makes his entrance, Dunne attacks Rey and steals his number specifically to go after Riddle. Thankfully, Riddle managed to eliminate Dunne. But then, Dunne slides Riddle out from the ring and through him over the barricade. Riddle was still in, however. Fortunately, Riddle returned in the match, but got eliminated by Triple H minutes later, losing his championship. Triple H then went on to win the match.

### The High Flyers (2021)

In 2021, Riddle (Shortened to **Riddle**) formed a tag team with Rob Van Dam known as "The High Flyers" and competed in the 4th and only Tag Team Deadly Games Match along with Sting and Darby Allin, The Shield (Jon Moxley and Roman Reigns), and champions The Fiend and Aleister Black. Unfortunately, When RVD tried to get the titles, The Fiend came out of nowhere and threw Van Dam off the structure to the announcer's table, eliminating both. The Shield were the ones to end up winning the match. Riddle then returned in the 2021 Royal Rumble at #23 with his scooter and teamed up with Allin in a short period of time with their scooter and skateboard at Kevin Owens. Then Randy Orton came out at #29, and Riddle seemed pretty happy. Randy manhandled everybody in the match. Then Orton comes face to face with Riddle, and even Nathan states that they took a liking to each other backstage. And so, the two formed "RK-Bro". RK-Bro then successfully eliminates D-Generation X. Unexpectedly, Seth Rollins throws Orton over. Riddle tries to Final Flash Rollins, but Seth ducked and Randy got hit with the knee, eliminating him. Riddle then was eventually got eliminated by Rollins, also.

### RK-Bro (2022)

Before the WSC Shower Match started, Riddle drove in with his scooter and approached Nathan and Tibbles. Riddle finds him cute and starts petting him, but WSC assures that he really shouldn't, as he states that Tibbles can shapeshift into anything. Nathan then demonstrates by calling out: "Tibbles, Scwanse!" and Tibbles transforms into Toxin. Riddle falls back and gets startled. Nathan and Tibbles then walks off and Randy Orton appears on screen. Riddle then goes on a tangent about how he met Tibbles, whom turned into Carnom seconds before. Orton then replies that Riddle is trippin' and he needs to "lay off the mushrooms".

RK-Bro officially had their in-ring debut in the 2022 Tag Team Elimination Chamber Match against The Usos, The Young Bucks, The Brawling Brutes, Brothers of Destruction, and The Street Profits. RK-Bro was doing pretty well for themselves, as they eliminated Brawling Brutes and Young Bucks, but Unfortunately, Jimmy Uso pinned Riddle to win. Luckily, it was announced that RK-Bro would be facing against The Usos, D-Generation X, and Darby Allin and Willow the Wisp at WrestleMania.

### WrestleMania (2023-present)

On January 2, Nathan announced the date of the WrestleMania match on January 8, which was the first WSC match of 2023. Shortly after, Riddle's name was then lengthened back to **Matt Riddle**. The match begins with each team jumping each other. Not 20 seconds into the match and Randy Orton decides to attempt and break Shawn Michaels's back, as he lunges Michaels into the edge of the announcer's table. Riddle then follows with a Floating Bro to D-X, followed by The Usos performing a Suicide Dive to the two teams, followed by Willow the Wisp performing a Whisper in the Wind to everybody below. Eventually, The Usos end up winning by performing a Double 1-D to Riddle and Darby Allin (with interference by Solo Sikoa).

Riddle would then enter the 2023 Royal Rumble at #4, but got no eliminations and was eliminated by Joker Jon Moxley.
