Ricochet, a former WWE star who joined All Elite Wrestling (AEW) in 2024, has recently criticized his previous employer amid backlash regarding an AEW match. During a discussion on the Hall of Fame podcast, WWE legend Booker T expressed discontent with modern wrestlers frequently using finishers, referencing a match between Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi at Clash in Italy. Ricochet, now leading the faction Demand in AEW, disagreed with Booker T's sentiment, arguing that WWE matches are predictable and lack suspense. He emphasized that in WWE, fans often wait for a single move to conclude the match, while AEW's approach keeps audiences engaged throughout. Earlier this year, Ricochet remarked on the Mark Hoke Show that his time on WWE's main roster had tarnished his legacy, stating that he felt he had returned to his roots with AEW. As he continues his journey in AEW, he hopes to eventually capture the AEW World Championship, signaling his ambition for future success in the promotion.
