Ridley's shadow appeared on the [[Pyrosphere]] stage in the April 2014 Nintendo Direct, suggesting he will be a stage hazard in the form of a boss, similar to the [[Yellow Devil]]. This is further backed by a statement from Sakurai when he revealed the stage on Miiverse months before, in which he said a character from "Samus' past" may appear at any second. However, the nature in which Sakurai has ambiguously alluded to Ridley, avoiding ever referring to him by name nor directly showing him without ever outright confirming his role (as he does with other popularly-requested non-playable characters), and observers finding the shadow itself suspicious (which has been observed with jerky and sudden movement instead of the smooth and telegraphed animations of a boss character), leaves Ridley's status in ''SSB4'' highly unclear. As such, the community was split on believing if Ridley is actually a stage boss of Pyrosphere, or if this had been teasing of Ridley as a playable character in a vein similar to {{SSB4|Palutena}}'s prereveal teasing.

Upon the release of the 3DS version of the game and the full roster being revealed, Ridley was not present, effectively disconfirming him. However, he also lacks a [[trophy]], which is highly unusual for being the series' most major recurring antagonist, even though he does not appear in the game otherwise. Combined with how cut veterans such as the Ice Climbers do have trophies, many believe that the lack of Ridley trophy reveals that he will be added to the game through downloadable content or similar means (therefore adding trophies for him as Classic/All-Star completion rewards) upon the release of the Wii U version.
