The way he got the post Punk squash crowd from stunned silence to applause to raucous cheers in 3 minutes is truly breathtaking. Ricky Starks is who Adam Cole thinks he himself is. Electric promo, great worker, charisma that jumps off the screen.

[@jackwilliamtaylor5656]

“If I ate, you ate” man why did that line crush me so hard

[@phantomblitz9378]

Because it had passion

[@JaimeD.]

Ricky Starks put passion in this promo and took shots on all the people who are getting in his way to the top. And "BRING YOUR 5 DOLLAR @$$" was a brilliant delivery. All Out has a good match card.

[@derek-64]

He said 5 dollar not 500

[@foreverunsaved6661]

That is $4.99 dollars more than his ass is worth. Hobbs is going to kick it so hard that Starks is going to be wearing it for a hat

[@ROMANTIKILLER2]

Kudos to Ricky for delivering this promo right after the live audience was still upset by the world title match. I thought he would have reached the upper-card as a heel, but he seems to have enough passion and charisma to work as a babyface too. Whatever the alignment, Starks is one of those younger talents that AEW must absolutely (no pun intended) not waste or lose.

[@The_OneManCrowd]

Excellent lol.

[@MoonSpiritChannel]

That. That is how you do a promo! He is ABSOLUTE!

I wouldn't discount Sammy. Sammy is great. But Ricky is definitely the fifth pillar.

[@giorgiasimeoni8437]

Give a hell of a title to Ricky Starks he is a great athlete I love him and in my opinion he deserves more than many others 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@jmsprc]

Ricky Starks is one of the best wrestlers in AEW

[@foreverunsaved6661]

The only way that Starks could be the best wrestler In gAyEW is if he was the ONLY wrestler in aew. Not a bad idea. He could wrestle himself, he could interview himself, and he could go f*ck himself.

[@rallyman619]

I usually don’t like calling wrestlers the “new” that or the “next” this, but I honestly see The Rock in this man. This man is pure electric and I love seeing him on whatever he’s on. I’m seriously hoping they give this man a title soon, maybe the TNT or the All-Atlantic Championship first (hopefully All-Atlantic because I really love the idea of that belt)

[@Strive_to_thrive]

Bro, I said the exact same thing in my comment before I read yours. I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees the Rock in this man. I wasn't a believer for a long time but after this promo, the look, the electricity, The man is undeniable.

[@foreverunsaved6661]

This guy is nothing at all like The Rock. The Rock likes his poontang pie, While Ricky likes his gloryhole casserole.

[@vamprls]

ricky put his heart and soul in this promo... you love to see it!

[@kitsunemaru]

Is it fair to say that Ricky Starks is the Jun Akiyama of AEW's four pillars? Him being the equally as talented fifth pillar of a promotion with four excellent pillars already.

[@danieldiaz4692]

Not even close.

[@ROMANTIKILLER2]

I think he's superior to both Jungle Boy and Sammy to be honest.

[@knightshousegames]

Honestly, Ricky is the 4th pillar, Sammy is out.

[@kitsunemaru]

@@knightshousegames I'll be fine with that as while Jungle Boy and Sammy are both great in ring, Ricky is a much superior promo which rounds him out much more.

[@knightshousegames]

@@kitsunemaru I think Jungle Boy is still growing a lot, he is working on his promos for sure with Christian. He feels like he is improving every week. Sammy is still Sammy. His promos are just not there. He's also got Go Away heat because he's a heel in real life. Ricky came in ready to go, great in the ring, great on promos, I knew he was something special during that first promo when he debuted against Cody way back when.

[@ShaneDouglas713]

You could feel the passion and emotion in his promo...

One of the best promos of the year. As believable, likable and exciting a guy that there is in wrestling. He's got the look, he's got the charisma, he can go in the ring, get belts on Ricky ASAP.

[@Z2KR]

definitely not rn, These belts feel like pity belts and everyone gets a turn, make the belts mean something first then when he wins it it’ll feel like a big accomplishment.
