Ricochet Says His Role In WWE Was To 'Take Moves' From Everyone
Ricochet understood that his role in WWE was to make others look good
Sep 29, 2024
It has been a busy month for Ricochet, who made his AEW debut at All In: London 2024 in Wembley Stadium, before going on to earn a shot at Will Ospreay’s AEW International Championship at Dynamite’s 5-Year Anniversary show next week.
When reflecting on his time in WWE, which was a spell that lasted for around six years, he explained on Talk Is Jericho that his role was simply just to ‘take moves’. He went into this after responding to fans who were annoyed that he didn’t win on his way out of the company.
“Guys, I never won, for one. So if I won and left, it would be weird. Two, it’s like, he [Bron Breakker] just started on Raw, they’re trying to make him a big threat, they’re trying to make him do something that’s dastardly. That was Ricochet’s role to take the moves from the people, that was always Ricochet’s role. It doesn’t matter if it was Braun or Drew or whoever, you know what I mean? Bronson Reed, Shinsuke, to take their move. I’m gonna take their move. It is what it is, it was a blessing and a curse, I blame myself.”
Since joining AEW, Ricochet has done more than just ‘take moves’, with him being 3-0 in singles competition. He explained last month that he left WWE for AEW to have more fun with his career.
