Ricochet appears to be on the brink of departing from WWE, and the organization seems to be bracing for his exit.

As previously reported, that Ricochet’s tenure with WWE was nearing its end, attracting significant interest from various companies worldwide. It was then reported this week that that Ricochet had served his notice to WWE. While this hasn’t been officially confirmed, sources within WWE suggest a strong possibility of Ricochet’s departure, with expectations of him possibly making his way to AEW.

According to a new report from Fightful Select, preemptive creative actions have been taken within WWE to facilitate Ricochet’s departure. This was evidenced by his loss of the WWE Speed Championship to Andrade during the recent Smackdown tapings. Alternative creative strategies are also reportedly being considered to write off Ricochet from WWE TV, should the need arise.

One proposal under discussion involves a storyline on RAW where Bron Breakker would incapacitate Ricochet. However, it’s worth noting that creative plans are subject to change.
