Riddle Runs Hurt Business Gauntlet On WWE Raw, Earns United States Title Match
Riddle will get another crack at Lashley.
On Monday’s WWE Raw, Riddle went through The Hurt Business gauntlet and earned himself a United States Championship match against Bobby Lashley.
After being dominated by Shelton Benjamin for the majority of their bout, Riddle was able to take advantage of some Hurt Business miscommunication and score a victory roll pinfall over Benjamin. MVP was next up and he did not last long with Riddle as he too was distracted by his own group, allowing Riddle to roll into a heel hook, forcing MVP to tap. In the final match of the gauntlet, Riddle caught Alexander with a roll up.
After the match, Lashley attacked Riddle and locked him in the Hurt Lock.
