Jim Ross Believes Ricochet Would Do A Great Job in AEW

Ricochet was one of the mainstays of WWE television for years but he has now parted ways with the company and is expected to join AEW. In light of his eventual AEW debut, Jim Ross believes Ricochet would do a great job in the company.

As previously reported, Ricochet’s WWE contract was nearing its end in the summer of 2024. On July 1st, Ricochet officially became a free agent as his WWE contract expired and he was free to do what he wanted.

We then reported that Ricochet is expected to join Tony Khan’s company soon and that Ricochet’s agent was recently seen backstage at AEW and has been actively involved in negotiations between Ricochet and AEW.

While speaking on his Grilling JR podcast, Jim Ross talked about Ricochet potentially joining AEW. Good ol’ JR made it clear that he believes Ricochet would be all-hands-on-deck and do a great job.

“I don’t know if that is etched in stone or not; I would think so. I would think that he would be all-hands-on-deck and do a great job. So, I’m a fan of his work. He’s a nice kid and I wish him nothing but great success.”

Will Ospreay has also addressed Ricochet potentially joining AEW, expressing his excitement and anticipation. Nevertheless, we will have to wait and see how Ricochet will be booked in AEW once he debuts there, as the possibilities are endless for the high-flyer.
