According to The Wrestling Observer, former MMA fighter and UFC fighter Matt Riddle is expected to begin working with WWE in February of 2016.

Riddle currently works with EVOLVE, and we previously reported that WWE helped Riddle get his job with EVOLVE, as WWE wanted to test Riddle out in a smaller promotion to see how he can handle the stresses of pro wrestling before bringing him into the company.

The date Riddle is expected to begin with WWE is not locked as of now, but there have been many officials in WWE high on Riddle due to his look and abilities, and he happens to be a big pro wrestling fan.
