Given how good he was in the past I’m kind of sad that I don’t even care if Ricochet leaves. WWE has cooled him off so much that I just can’t bring myself to get excited about him in AEW, Japan or RoH. I ind my apathy towards WWE has increased a lot lately. I still pay attention to the business they do but as far as storylines/characters I just can’t bring myself to care. Even when listening to the Observer I only semi-pay atttention to the wwe recaps.

Hilarious. This goes one of two ways: 1) Galaxy brain Ricochet and he was just playing the game to make sure he gets out of the contract. Hey, the Young Bucks did name drop him on a BTE recently. Hmm... 2) He is gonna fall for the trap because he is such a monster bootlicker and this story was leaked on purpose: WWE: “Ricochet, we are going to push you for a couple months since your contract is almost up. We do it to everybody and most fall for it. Will you fall for this too? After you re-sign for your 5 year ‘DONT go to AEW Contract’, we will do the push for 60 days. Then you can go back to Main Event and catering. Sound good?” Chet: “Love it. Count me in. I just want to be here.”

Ricochet is the worst promo in wrestling so unless he gets a manager it’ll be hard for me to ever care about him in AEW or anywhere else. I never see him in WWE either way. Also doesn’t wrestlevotes routinely just make poo poo up

We joke but I have a coworker who was a teen when ol Maggie Thatcher hosed over his Dad and the entire Coal Mining community back in the day. Not 13 but like 17 or 18 so he actually saw and dealt with those events as they happened and the fallout afterwards. Apparently a few years ago he "saw the light" and changed. I made a Thatcher joke a week ago and he actually defended her as having to make a tough decisions, life is complicated and we shouldn't talk ill of the dead. The conversation that followed just became depressing. Things like that worry me and I ponder that maybe the book/movie Logan's Run had the right idea.

We WH goons have been through the poo poo and have bonded over decades of frustration, pain and irritation. Some still sift through mountains of poop to find the occasional tin nugget but most just want to chat with their mates and wait for the inevitable implosion of WWE. You guys are cool and JRu is a good mod.

Yeah I give zero shits about Ricochet in AEW cause they have more than enough flippy guys but a return to NJPW's junior scene would be a huge and the potential rematch with Ospreay would be a huge loving deal

Yeah Ricochet played a part in killing his own momentum. Plus we've seen him be great in other places, it's actually a lot of fun to see people like Miro and Brodie Lee outside of that system.

Also doesn’t wrestlevotes routinely just make poo poo up Ricochet in NJPW where he doesn't really need to promo and just talk like a normal human after having exceptional matches would be good, as would Ricochet in AEW with a mouthpiece like Taz or Tully or Arn. After Ricky Starks accomplishes all of the things as a singles wrestler, a Starks/Richochet (Rickychet?) team would be pretty dope. This is assuming he doesn't actually have brainworms and his bootlicking was all a ploy like others are hoping

Ricochet, tunneling a hole behind a Roman Reigns poster in the Amway Center. “He licked boots for three hundred feet... just short of a football field. And came out with tastebuds on the other side.”

Like, if he manages to get away from WWE, yay for him, but it's not about him reinventing himself and reaching new heights of his career like others did, it's about getting back to the heights of the career he had before he became a catering-loving double-agent for no good reason.

Ricochet is excellent, I just assumed from the Seth-Tier bootlicking he was a complete fed lifer and I take poorly to rumors of hope. He would be great in AEW or NJPW. People can say they're "cool" on him, but look at the performers that went to AEW and Impact and how much better they look. Except Cardona. He's very red. Just so red. Also: A bad promo is only a bad promo by being made to read terrible WWE promos. You can do short promos, or promos with set up, and have people look super loving cool if you're in an environment (AEW) where everyone wants you to look cool. Penta looks cool as gently caress and cut a bad english promo that was cool as gently caress. I still laugh thinking about "baby-saurus". In WWE, forget it, no moments like that. No booking to Penta's aura and cool voice. I also don't remember anything about Ricochet's main roster run other than stuff involve balls and being in a cool tagteam with Aleister Black where they lost challenges to every belt in the company at the time.

I missed the news that he'd signed with the WWE, so I remember going "Oh poo poo! Ricochet!" when he appeared on NXT, which quickly became "oh poo poo, Richochet." It's just incredible how much the WWE will efficiently book to a performer's weaknesses, and then book them to be jobbers, and then wonder why they're not over. I honestly was hoping for something good to come out of his match with Brock - there'd been some set-up (Brock lowblowed him for shits and giggles, Richochet humiliated him at the Rumble) and he was exactly the type of guy Brock pairs up well with. Just to see that squandered, and him being all like "happy to be here" on Twitter was just disappointing, so I hope he leaves and goes back to New Japan or heads to AEW. Anywhere that he'd be valued, basically.
