Teddy Long has been around the wrestling business for a long time, having landed his first gig in the industry back in the mid-1980s.
However, while he’s no longer a WWE regular, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t still pop up on special occasions. Long made his most recent appearance for the company as part of the draft, meaning he got a chance to talk to a number of WWE’s biggest stars.
One person that the veteran chatted with was Matt Riddle. Appearing on Sportskeeda’s WrestleBinge, Long said that he loves the former United States Champion before likening him to a male stripper.
“Me and Matt talked a little bit. I love Matt Riddle. He kind of reminds me of a male stripper. I’ve watched him come down and boy, those women’s eyes are glued in on him. He’s like half naked as he’s going to the ring. He has a great body, he looks great, and he looks the part.”
Teddy Long Got Hight With RVD During The WWE Draft
Speaking in an exclusive interview with Nick Hausman for Inside The Ropes, Long detailed his recent appearances for WWE as part of the Draft. The WWE Hall of Famer appeared on both Raw and SmackDown announcing selections for either side to a big reception from fans.
The former referee has never hidden his love of marijuana, so naturally he ran into fellow Hall of Famer, Rob Van Dam while at the tapings. Unsurprisingly, Long confirmed to Inside The Ropes that he made sure to “sneak out back” with RVD, joking that the pair had “one hell of a conversation.”
