A new addition to All Elite Wrestling (AEW) is generating buzz in the wrestling world. Ricochet, a high-flying ex-WWE star, is set to join AEW, marking Tony Khan’s latest signing and adding to the promotion’s impressive roster.
Ricochet has dominated headlines recently as his WWE contract expired at midnight on July 1, making him a free agent. After an emotional farewell on WWE TV last month, Ricochet made the bold decision to part ways with the company, setting his sights on new challenges.
During his successful WWE career, Ricochet held various titles, including Intercontinental Champion, United States Champion, and NXT North American Champion. He also won the 2019 Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic and was the inaugural WWE Speed Champion.
As previously reported, Ricochet was not contractually able to appear at the AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door event less than a week ago. However, his agent was spotted backstage at AEW Dynamite this week, fueling speculation about his imminent debut in AEW.
While it’s not officially confirmed yet, the wrestling community is abuzz with excitement, eagerly awaiting Ricochet’s potential impact in AEW. Keep an eye on this developing story as Ricochet prepares to take flight in a new wrestling arena.
