Matt Riddle Gives His View On The Return Of Fans

Because of the covid-19 pandemic, each and every professional wrestling promotion faced massive losses. Every promotion was forced to release a lot of talents due to the covid-19 pandemic losses. Among those promotions WWE was nothing different, they also had to release a lot of talented restless and backstage personnel too.

A lot of professional wrestlers and wrestling legends have talked about how difficult it is to work in front of virtual fans. At first the shows were conducted behind closed doors. Now WWE has organized virtual audience and fake crowd noises.

But the fans are finally back and WWE is fun to watch once again. A lot of returns and debuts were booked in the last three shows. It was extremely entertaining to see all the returns.

Matt Riddle who was a former WWE United States Champion recently spoke to The National where he gave his view on the return of fans on live shows. He said;

“Honestly, I think having the crowd back is going to help out a lot. A lot of times when you don’t have that crowd there, you do what you do, but you don’t feel it, you don’t know if it’s going to get the reaction you want it to get because the crowd isn’t there to personally react to it. I can’t wait to hear that crowd pop.

“I think even the fans watching at home can’t wait to hear those fans screaming and making some noise. You do not want to miss it.”
