In an interview with ComicBook.com, AEW CEO Tony Khan praised Ricochet for his wrestling ability, as the high flyer is now a free agent. Ricochet left WWE last month and is heavily rumored to be AEW-bound.
He said: “I’m a huge fan of Ricochet. I think he’s a great, great wrestler. He’s been involved in matches against some of the top stars in AEW. He also has a great history in New Japan Pro Wrestling, as he’s been a champion there and a top star. We have great collaboration there and I love the history of New Japan and I think he’s a big part of it. During a great era when a lot of our top stars were wrestling there, he was a big part of it. I have a lot of admiration and respect for Ricochet and think he’s one of the top athletes and one of the most exciting stars in all of wrestling.“
