WWE Star Ricochet Set to Depart, Listed in Alumni Section Ahead of Contract Expiration

Ricochet, a WWE star, has been moved to the alumni section on WWE’s website, indicating his impending departure from the company despite being under contract. According to Sean Ross Sapp of “Fightful,” insiders confirmed that Ricochet remains under contract but plans to leave when it expires.

He expressed his intention to leave WWE upon the conclusion of his contract. His last appearance was on the June 10 episode of “WWE Raw,” where Bron Breakker attacked him, leading to his character being written off television.

Ricochet joined WWE in 2018 and was promoted to the main roster in 2019. During his tenure, he achieved notable success, winning the United States Championship and the Intercontinental Championship.

Additionally, he became the first-ever Speed Champion, a title he recently lost to Andrade. Despite these accomplishments, Ricochet’s tenure with WWE seems to be nearing its end, aligning with his earlier communicated desire to part ways.

Speculation surrounds Ricochet’s next career move, with AEW (All Elite Wrestling) being a potential destination. AEW commentator Jim Ross has praised Ricochet’s talents, and there is interest in seeing him reignite his rivalry with AEW International Champion Will Ospreay.

Ospreay, who has previously competed against Ricochet, expressed his disappointment with Ricochet’s recent WWE matches, indicating a desire to see him in more compelling bouts, possibly hinting at a future collaboration in AEW.

Another possible option for Ricochet is TNA (Total Nonstop Action Wrestling), where he could also find a welcoming environment.

TNA star Leon Slater has shown interest in Ricochet joining the promotion, suggesting that his skills and persona would be a valuable addition. The wrestling community is keenly watching Ricochet’s next steps, given his high-flying style and popularity among fans.

Ricochet’s impending departure from WWE marks the end of a significant chapter in his wrestling career. As he transitions out of WWE, his potential move to AEW or TNA could open new opportunities for him to showcase his skills and engage in new rivalries.

His journey from WWE to a new wrestling promotion will be closely followed by fans and industry insiders, eager to see where his high-energy performances will take him next.
