AEW Is Going To Ruin and Expose Ricochet

WWE ain’t going to miss Ricochet. They got like 5 people on the roster that can do what he can do. As soon as he has the handful of dream matches, Tony will throw him away in his toy box never to be seen again

[@ShaunInce123]

Yup. Wes Lee fits that archetype since he can do pretty much the same things Ricochet does.

[@gokus789]

WWE wasn't letting him do his full moveset tho. So we didn't get to see his full style. No one does things quite like him other than Ospreay. If only WWE stopped grounding their highflyers and nerfing their movesets. If you're a highflyer why even sign with WWE if they're only going to use you as a special attraction but not see you as top draw. I'm scared for Fenix debuting. If no one can keep up with him, they'll have him wrestle under the WWE style instead of letting him do his thing,which won't be as exciting.

[@Americalovesme2008]

Ricochet will make a lot of money and be working a lot less dates so that might extend his in ring career. If I was TK, I'd have Ricochet debut during the Ospreay and MJF match in which he costs Will the match and aligns himself with Don Callius. Don could be the mic guy while Ricochet is the new will ospreay of the stable essentially the golden goose of the faction. The match between Will and Ricochet should be a slow build up leading into Full Gear then have Ricochet score the victory by any means necessary storyline wise. This would hell Ricochet plus him as a heel would feel fresh and different. He has a niche within the company and he could do well if booked correctly, that I worry about though.

[@moralesharold87]

As good as that may sound, you know that’s not happening.

[@adu1991]

Well, although Ricochet was never a main eventer in WWE... He was brought in as a big deal.. almost similar to when Shinsuke Nakamura was signed to WWE. Ricochet's first match was a ladder match for the NXT Championship. He didn't win, but the match seemed to be more in Ricochet's wheelhouse than any of the other competitors. It was "The Ricochet Show" and it was positioned to put him over. Now it's interesting to see how far he's fallen(pun intended). Devante says that many WWE talent who cross over to AEW aren't as successful... but the only one who broke that mold was Toni Storm. I'd even argue that she's better on the mic than Willow Nightingale. Toni Storm is a major throwback character, with the "timeless" gimmick, while Willow seems to always combine cute and bubbly with gritty deathmatches and going to the extreme... The combo doesn't always work.

I mean, if we look at it from a purely logical business perspective FOR RICOCHET … it makes sense. Hear me out; He will be paid ALOT more at AEW because they always overpay, he will only wrestle once a week at most, whereas in WWE he was wrestling on TV then house shows, if he signs the usual pattern for ex-WWE guys then he’ll wrestle regularly for 3 or 4 months then disappear and be lost in the shuffle for the next few years. What I don’t understand is AEW - he’s not a merch mover, he’s not a needle mover for ratings and unless they have a long term plan to use him regularly week in week out then they’re going to be overpaying his salary. Also, with AEW, why do they keep on signing 35+ year old guys?! They have so many guys under 30, why aren’t they getting them a bunch of reps? Why aren’t they building them on TV? 🤷🏻‍♂️
