Ok. Ricochet isn't the best wrestler in the world, and he certainly isn't the best high flyer, but at this point, I think he gets too much hate. The man isn't a technical wrestler or a power wrestler or a brawler. Ricochet plays to his strengths, and being a high flyer is his strength, and I think he does it better than most modern flyers. His promos may not be great, but to be fair, loads of good wrestlers (not just modern guys) are kinda weak on the mic. Steve Black was not a promo man, but he made up for that by being a badass. Dean Malenko was a great technical wrestler but not well known for his mic work. Even Rey Mysterio jr is more well known for his high flying skills than his promos (to be fair his mic skills are not bad they are good but most fans like him for his agility and speed in the ring) AEW made him look weak, but let's be honest, aew makes everyone look weak, except for the elite and friends, Moxley and MJF to a certain extent. Look at Archer, for example. He is either squashing enhancement guys or losing to "popular" wrestlers. Anyone who signs with AEW will ultimately have their careers hurt or even ruined. I know it was their choice and I have no control over their decisions but at this point anyone who signs with AEW, even after hearing and seeing all bad decisions associated with the company, is just being foolish. The only place where Ricochet was booked strongly was Lucha Underground. He wrestled as Prince Puma and actually had a proper arc. From a student of Konan to a solo wrestler, he wants to prove he can be a top wrestler on the roster without his mentor. LU focused not only on his aerial skills. A mouthpiece would be good for him, but I doubt either MVP or nana will volunteer. Maybe Don if Ricochet decides 2 join the Callis family. At this point, the man's career is already in jeopardy, but as usual, Tony does not care. And that is a shame. Take care and happy Christmas
