Ricochet Says AEW Helped Him Find His Wrestling Passion Again After WWE Ruined It

Ricochet pulls back the curtain.

The AEW superstar joined Tony Khan's promotion back at All In London in 2024. Since then, he's had a career resurgence working as a heel and flexing his character chops more than he ever got to in WWE. In fact, Ricochet claimed on X (fka Twitter) on May 1st that WWE nearly ruined his passion for the business and that AEW helped him find it again.

"No, the main reason was that the WWE ruined my love and passion for the sport that I grew up loving. AEW helped me find that love again," he wrote in response to a fan.

Ricochet was in WWE for years, capturing the NXT North American Championship, the WWE United States Championship, the WWE Intercontinental Championship, and the WWE Speed Championship.
