Speculation is rampant about the impending departure of a prominent WWE star, but AEW President Tony Khan remains tight-lipped on the matter. Recent reports indicate that Ricochet, a fan favorite, has declined to renew his contract with WWE, which is set to expire in July.
This development was further solidified on the June 10th edition of Raw, where Ricochet was decisively defeated by Bron Breakker in a brutal post-match assault.
As Ricochet’s WWE exit appears imminent, rumors are swirling about his potential next destination, with AEW being a likely candidate.
However, Tony Khan has declined to comment on the situation, citing his preference not to discuss talent still under contract with other promotions. In an interview with TV Insider, Khan maintained his stance, opting to “keep his powder dry” on the matter.
This approach is consistent with Khan’s previous stance on Becky Lynch, another high-profile WWE star who recently parted ways with the company.
By choosing not to publicly discuss talent from other promotions, Khan aims to maintain a level of professionalism and respect in the competitive world of professional wrestling. As the speculation surrounding Ricochet’s future continues to build, fans and insiders alike will be watching closely for any developments on this story.
