An AEW star has joined in on the praise for WWE's Ricochet, and now the high-flying ring veteran is responding to the social media talk.

Earlier this week, WWE NXT Superstar Dijak took to X with major praise for his friend Ricochet. He labeled the SmackDown Superstar as the best high-flying wrestler in history and one of the best in-ring talents he's ever seen or worked with.

Another high-flying veteran wrestler took to X and agreed with Dijak's thoughts. Matt Sydal, who currently works for AEW, co-signed Dijak's endorsement in a reply. The former Evan Bourne chimed in with a simple one-word tweet:

"Agreed!," Sydal wrote.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Ricochet finally chimed into the discussion following Sydal's reply to Dijak. The Future of Flight gave thanks to his colleagues:

"Thank you guys so much. That is truly an honor [folded hands emoji]," Ricochet wrote.

Sydal and Ricochet worked dozens of singles and multi-man matches with each other from 2006 to 2017. Their last match together was a tag team loss to Marty Scurll and Zack Sabre Jr. on September 2, 2017, at PWG's Battle of Los Angeles. Their last singles bout saw Ricochet get the win on August 5, 2017, at OTT's WrestleRama event in Dublin.
